It's spelled Lester you fuckknobs.

No wonder Americans are so dumb. England created the most retarded language on the planet. Good thing we left when we did or we'd be spelling some stupid rear end poo poo by now. People in Worcester are pretty stupid, too.

You decided to sound stupid, instead of spell stupid

Say aluminum.

Did it sound like, "abloom a bloo"? You might be American.

Say herb.

Did it sound like, "ERRRRRRRRRRRRb"? You might be American.

Say hospital visit

Did it sound like bankruptcy? You might be American.

It's not so much how they spell than the fact their vocabulary makes them all sound like children.

Sounds like too much barney rubble for me, looks like this palava doesn't quite cut the mustard if you follow my caper

Also, say these words in order:

Error, err, herb

Could you hear no 'h' in the third word? Perhaps not? Do you find that acceptable? Because it sounds like this to us:

Eh-raw. err, errb

Which makes you sound like you are talking to your buddy Erb who just keeps reassuring you that calling room service at 4am for pork chops is acceptable, and also, your idea for a car is just great and that his business associate thinks your personal odor is above reproach

British English has copied a lot of crap from French but nothing as awful as 'erb
le du pompt du chef a la sprinkle ze 'erbs in my goulache, ah oui!

how do Americans pronounce herbivore

English is a big melting pot of languages, or perhaps the avalanche of words is too much to realize such a thing from hearing the American parlance

French people focus on the uh/ah sound when they speak, like, "oui", or "au avoir"
Americans people focus on the sound coming out of their mouth, like 'I have the right to' and 'I shouldn't have to'

The "h" thing is actually you lame-os adorably freaking out about trying to not sound lower class and shoving the h sound in where it wasn't before.

What, you mean like shoving the h sound at the beginning of the word when there's a h at the start of it? Like herb?

Also, how do you feel about the words knackered, knave and know?
