    Hi Montse,

    Thanks a lot for the video, I find it very useful to understand the differences between British and American English!! Otherwise, George Bernard Shaw’s quote is great!!!
    Cookie Monter brings me back good memories! By the way, I think this year is the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street, isn’t it?

    See you!

    See you tomorrow!

    Hello there!
    I loved the video, and particularly the British accent of the speaker! It would be a good idea to have a votation on accents! Bolton’s good!

    Bolton’s good, but I still prefer that special soft lilt to say “wee bit” up there in my Edinburgh! Mmmm!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Nuria!
    I can watch the video finally!!!
    I think that it is beter for all the students know more things about english and I am surprise because I didn´t think that it has as much differencs between British and American english.
    It’s a fantastic idea ;)

    See you!!

    Hi!

    I like the words “cat’s eye” ! It’s really funny, isn’t it? ;) You see, I’ve seen all the video!

    Otherwise, it’s more interesting when you put videos here cause you can practise the listening too! :D What I think it’s quite necessary, at least it’s one of the most important things for learning a language.

    Bye!

    Hi!

    I agree that Nuria has posted a really interesting video! We’ll try to continue offering you more things like that!

    Have a good weekend, bye!

    Hi Montse!

    Wooww! Good video, there are many differences between British and American English, yes.

    See you on the Monday ;)

    Tamara.

    Hi Nuria,
    The video is really interesting, I didn’t know that there can be all these differences between so similar languages!
    I agree with María, I also think that you must post more videos here because we can improve our listenings (Last Monday, at least mine, was awful haha) and in my opinion is more enterteined learn English by this way :)
    See you tomorrow!
