Angloph

From anglophile.

Usually American. A person who has a skewed, almost victorian notion of England/Britain (is not able to distinguish the two).

Has based all knowledge of this country off Sherlock and Doctor Who. As a result they think Benedict Cumberbatch is the epitome of British chivalry, despite the fact that he is a self-hating, anti-British asshole.

In spite of their self-professed expertise on the subject, they have no idea that Wales is it's own country. If they are ever fortunate enough to come across a REAL Briton, they will proceed to ask them all about London - whether or not that person has ever lived/visited there.

They often enjoy affecting a "British" accent, which ends up being no misnomer because no one in the entire 4 countries sound like that (perhaps except for that one time Dick Van Dyke visited).

Meagyn: No. Way! You're a real British!? 'allo mate! I LOVE London~ I want to live there so baaaad!!

Charlotte: Oh sorry, I'm from York.

Meagyn: Like... Albany?

Charlotte: (...not another angloph)

Anglosphere 

An international commonwealth of countries who derive their concepts of civil society, rule of law, property rights, common law and democratic and capitalist principles from English legal and social norms as espoused in the Magna Carta, the U.S. Constitution, and other landmark legal documents. Such a commonweath would include the UK, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand among others.

The Coalition forces against Iraq were made up almost entirely of military personnel from the Anglosphere.

Those English-speaking nations and communities that have historically and in general based their political institutions on representative constitutional government and the rule of law, their legal institutions on common law, their economic insitutions primarily on free enterprise and voluntary exchange, all founded on a strong civil society composed of freely associating individual and groups forming a network of networks.

The pathbreaker civilization for modernity has been the Anglosphere in the political, legal and economic fields.

anglophiliac 

a) someone who wants to have sex with a British person. This desire to fuck British people is usually due to the dreamy British accent.
b) may also refer to someone who wants to have sex with an Australian because Americans often can't tell the difference between the accents.

person A: I really wanna have a threesome with Hugh Grant and Hugh Laurie

person B: that's cuz you're a total anglophiliac... and possibly a Hughophile.
