>>217195272my favourite EFL thing is when Americans use the wrong verb form in the perfect tense>he shoulda ran
>>217194752The biggest one I notice is when people say>>217195020instead of "what do you mean" or "what do you call... "

>>217194752I think most people across the developed world use whatsapp. It's just anglos who use the default messaging app because they were mentally enslaved by Apple inc. And that only benefits americans. Australian, canadian and english culture are just extensions of american culture at this point
>>217194752>Currency symbol placed after the digits (eg 1000$).Isn't that how you write that in every country on earth except for usa?
>>217194752Civilized people put the currency symbol at the end. You say 'thousand dollars' not 'dollars thousand' so why the fuck would you put the currency symbol in the front ?
