Can we substantiate that?

FXKing2012:
Because the British are the owners of the language thus the perfection they seek as far as their language is concerned.
When something is yours you tend to take very good care of it but when not yours you treat it anyhow. That explains why American and Australian English differs from Queens English.

Well that's a good explanation but two days ago, I almost had me roof blown off when I was telling an American friend about their English and the British English we use in Nigeria.

American friend's reply: We don't give a fucck about the British, it is you guys who the British kicked, forced their words into your mouths that get sober when you hear anything about the British and it's because they are your gods. Na so I my fucck up.

Americans when carried away by talk will start saying: She don't wanna do that. And it's fine by them. O' Americans!

Americans are way too arrogant; to hell with them and their arrogance.
