30 Seconds on Community (American and Queen’s English verisions)

Cole Camplese posted a call for 30 second video responses defining community. He actually didn’t specify which language he wanted it in (i.e., American English or the Queen’s English), so I covered all bases, for reading text is one thing–but actually listening to someone talk is something else all together.

American English version

The Queen’s English version

The “inspiration” for this train wreck comes from EduRush Nation.

    Hmmm, seems like nobody liked my accent. I can’t imagine why….I thought it was “spot on”—as they say in the old country.

    Au contraire, old chap, I adored it. Thought it was top-hole, absolutely super, pukka. It’s simply marvelous when you colonial chappies across the pond imitate Ozzies, donchaknow.

    :D
