Secondly, we have avery America influated society today with like 95% American series and movies and the rest 5% is from the rest of the English talking world. That way we mostly grow up learning/hearing the American way.
The thing with Sweden, and all other countries that doesn't have English as their native tongue, is that the teachers talk really bad. They talk with this Swedish accent and we hear them talk like that and we start talking the exact same way. Which is really hilarious cause I remember this one time I heard a businessman talking in his cellular and I really couldn't stop laughing. He even turned around and looked at me and didn't understood squat until he asked me why I laughed so hard :p
Anyway, In my opinion we mostly learn the American accent due to all movies and series etc and therefor I don't understand Brittish English so well. Like when we got a teacher who talked very Brittish I had a hard time at first to really understand what he said. I wasn't used to that "shit"
Damn this got stupidly long :badgrin:
