there are regional differences even within england and not to mention the uk
i always thought it was funny how non-rhotic dialects insert an /r/ sound between vowels (when there is no letter r of course)

In addition to the ‘Michaelmas term’ we have the ‘Hilary term’ which iirc the US also missed out on.

Fahrenheit is a better temperature scale for the weather than Celsius though.But what we really need is a temperature scale for the weather where freezing is 0 and 95F is, like, 9, so the temperature outside is just one digit
