Losing my context
Speaking with my American friends and family, it's becoming apparent that I'm losing the ability to switch back to Ermerican english (although, thankfully I haven't lost my accent -- or lack of, I should say).
Examples:
- saying 'innit' at the end of a sentence and not meaning to.
- not immediately remembering the translation for 'jumper','trainers' or 'queue'
- refering to British english as 'English english'
- they have no idea what i'm on about when i say "yeahiknow"
Looks like I'm here to stay.
Innit.
