1. A quirky little langauge that you wont have a chance of understanding unless you jump in with both feet. English often makes little sense when anylised but is certainly fun none the less, and which by some ungodly reason managed to spread to pretty much most of the world.
2. An even quirkier group of people that can do things downright eccentric, flamboyant or outragous and still maintain their dignity. A group of people that have ministries not departments, tea not coffie and an accent renouned in most of the world. An englishman has a natural born ability of self depreciation, a complex sense of humour (with a 'u'), and a brilliant cricket team (just dont tell the australians that). The english are also rather renouned for complaining about the weather or lack-there-of.

"Here in America where we speak English people like to vocalise their opinions, nowhatimsayin..."
"Pardon? Vocalise? That means to make sounds without language, you know, like parrots and babies".
"Really?"
"Yeah. Did you mean 'give voice to' or something like that?".
"Dunno. Maybe. You got a dictionary?"
"I think you mean 'do I have a dictionary', why yes, I have. I will now get it."
"Ooooh, I'm so excited, I can't wait, no really I can't wait, bye".

Someone or somthing originating from England. A small island in western europe, this island is also shared by wales, and scotland.
Many stereotypes are related back to the english. Such as wearing big top hats, speaking in a posh or stuck up accent, being rich, being agressive and moody and living in castles. These are all bullshit. I'm english and I'd love to be one rich motherfucker. All I am is a middleclass open minded student who has nothing against anyone. In the 'ye olde times' we did happen to gangrape most of the world (about 3/4 to be precise) but back then everyone was trying to do the exact same, we were just better. This makes many people angry, such as the Scottish, the Americans aaaand hell every other country in the world really (apart from the ones whoses asses we saved).
So please learn from this guys, we english are not all football hooligans, nor are we all Lords and Ladies of Yorkshire, the majority of us are just nice, friendy people who are activley seeking to make the world a better place.
Apart from Tony Blair, do not gauge us by his actions. Hes a cunt. So's Gordon Brown.

spin on a pool ball or billiards ball (they are very different games). Comes from the fact that this technique came here from English players when they brought the game and their skillz here

The English language originated from England and throughout early centuries was mostly forced upon most of the world's inhapitants. It is one of the most common languages spoken in modern times.
English is the nationality of any who were born in England, the term "British" is mainly used by English people to describe themselves abroad. English people receive a lot of vocal abuse directly and indirectly from other nationalities. There is a lot of hatred of us from around the world not to mention hatred in Britain, because we gave them reasons to hate us, the British Empire for one; it travelled a large majority of the world and conquered foreign lands and enslaved it's indegious civilians, but don't forget, us English people were once invaded and conquered, i.e The Roman Empire, the Normans and Scandinavian Vikings. There are a lot of English idiots who are bigots and take other people for granted very easily, the common English twat who normally hates the Irish, welsh and scottish people without ever meeting one, the common English nice bloke sometimes likes to go down to the pub and have a pint and chat with its patrons, make sure their kids grow up right and be respectful but not be pushovers, as the same with a lot of other people.
I for one who is obviously English grew up not hating people who aren't white, because I was related to people had black skin.
England's history is very interesting despite it's brutality and sadism; my favourite country is Wales for it's beautiful mountainous landscape which looks nice on sunny days, some people think Wales has bad weather but where other places doesn't have bad weather, even though it has been a long time since I visited Wales and someday plan on going back, I've never been to Ireland but I am going on a trip there next year and I haven't been to Scotland. I am 17 and have been a lazy twat all summer but will be going to college and when I turn 18, reality will kick my arse.twat
