2. The British usually use “have got” in the sense of “have”. The Americans hardly ever do.
Am. E: Do you have a car, room, etc.? Yes, I do.
Br. E: Have you got a car, room, etc.? Yes, I have.
3. There are a number of differences between American and British English in the spelling of words, e.g. check (USA) / cheque (UK). Many American words ending in “or”, e.g. honor, labor are spelt in British English with an “our,” e.g. honour, labour. Many verbs in American English with “ize” or “izing” forms, e.g. organize, realizing are spelt in Br. E with “ise” or “ising”, e.g. organise, realising. In American English, “practice” is used both for the verb and noun. In Br. E, the verb is spelt “practise”, and the noun “practice.” In American English, one writes “traveler,” while in British English, one writes “traveller”.
4. It was once predicted that British and American English would become separate languages finally. But the opposite has happened. The links (联系) between the two countries are so strong that linguistically (语言上地), and probably culturally (文化上地) too, they are closer together than ever.
60. The Americans hardly say “_____”
A. Good-bye. Have a good day! B. Glad to know you! C. Hi! D. Have you got a car?
