To which american or british english are you referring?
Massachucetts, Alabama, California, Lousiana? London, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle?
Are there only 2 forms of "correct" english??
Please advise the australians, scotts, south africans, kiwis, irish and every other english speaking country they are doing it wrong.

People who choose accents make me want to barf, but having said that American English is easier and more phonetic than British English. Otherwise it's all the same; you say tomayto, I say tomarto, you say potayto, and I say .....yeh, who the fuck says potarto?
They don't care mate, all Foreigners are the same to them, if you don't realize that then welcome to China because you are obviously new here.
Chinese welcome everybody, but like them more if they can speak chinese, so nationality is of no importance.
Ive been told from time to time that many Asians like the "southern drawl" accent of the southern states of the USA. They say we naturally speak slower, and draw out our words which makes is easier for them to keep up while listening. Granted, the accent has gotten a bad rap historically, as it seemed indicative of a slow witted person. c'est la vie.
