Correct, but you say the same when you hear a French english or a British english? I'm hungarian, if I hear american accent, I understand about the half, same with british accent is about 35-40%.

I have a friend from HK learnt his English in London's East End.
I am pretty much the only person who can understand him when he speaks "English"

Probably not.Americans are so terrified of King George they won't even speak the same English as him.

Americans are so terrified of King George they won't even speak the same English as him.

Perhaps should have called their version tritiuminium, do they both also have 'laser' weapons?Of course, but that isn't the point - Borrowing from other games is not a development curve -
Ba-dum-tish! You here all week?So is gravity, and it really sucks.
