By the way, they say, that English has become the most important international language of nowadays.2 Helen: Oh, yes, it certainly has. People will understand you practically everywhere if you speak English. In most of the countries people speak English and their native language of course. Diana: And in what countries do people use English as their native language? Helen: In Great Britain, the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. These are English-speaking countries. Diana: So in all these countries people speak the same language, don’t they? Helen: My answer is “yes” and “no”. Though they all speak English, yet it is a little different in each of these countries. Diana: You don’t say so!3 I never knew that Americans and the English speak different languages. Helen: Oh, no! They don’t. They speak English in both countries, but people speak American English in the USA and British English in Great Britain. Different words often name the same things.
