Sacrificing English
So over a delicious lunch of yellow and brown foods, Christina and I had the daily American vs British English conversation! It went as follows....
Leah: Hmm I've noticed how you say houses (hausez)
Christina: Why, how do you say it?
Leah: Houses (howsez)
Christina: But..mouse, you don't say mouses (mowsez)
**genuine look of triumph**
Leah: Err, Christina....it's mice.
Christina: Oh shit
Definitely a win for the British by default!
