SIX FANNIES
|
SIX FANNIES  An American and a Brit would both agree there are six fannies in the photo above. But an American would say the fannies are below and the Brit would say above. An American fanny is an a woman's ass. A British fanny is a woman's pussy. An American fanny-pack is a Brit bum-bag. An American fanny is a Brit's bum; a Brit's fanny is an American ass. But an American ass is a British arse; and a British pussy is an American weakling. How did all that come about? When I first went to the US, I was amazed that American English dictionaries were sold in bookshops. Naively I wondered why the Americans needed a special dictionary just for words like center, organization and program, rather than the English words centre, organisation and programme. Brits say football, Americans say soccer! Brits say crisps, Americans say chips! Brits say a lift, Americans say an elevator! Brits say toilets, Americans say restrooms! One British man said, "In a car park by a secluded woodland, I met a lush woman for a shag while out dogging." His American friend observed, "I don't understand, why would you chase and insult a drunken woman for a haircut in a wood?" Will British English and American English become so different, over time, that we will not easily understand each other? How different is Australian, Canadian and New Zealand English to British English? "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."
