English around the world
Vocabulary
Mother tongue- the Ianguage you learned fiom your parents,
your first language
Variety' many different kinds
To be expoeeü expoaure. to be shown, to be surrounded, to
notice something
To focus- to concentrate on or think about one thing
English is spoken as a first language by
several countries including Great Britain,
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa,
Canada, and the United States. While all of
these countries share the same mother
tongue, there are some differences in the way
they speak and write.
The first difference is in the accent. Each
country has its own accent. And within each
country there are a variety of accents called
regional accents.
Another difference is the spelling of some
words, like color and colour, or theater and
theatre.
And a third difference is that some of the
words are not the same at all. For example,
Americans say restroom, Canadians say
washroom, and the British say W.C. (water
closet.) But all of these words have the same
meaning (the room where the toilet is located.)
Questions
Choose the best answer based. on the readi-ng.
1. Which country is not listed as one where English
is spoken as a first language?
A. Australia
B. SouthAfrica
X. Brazil
2. The many different accents in one country are

C. country accents
3. Which of these is not different between Engüsh
speaking countries.
So which English is the best English to learn?
Well, there is no best English. They are aII
equally good and correct. But two things may
help you decide which one is best for you to
study.
First of all, where do you live? If you are flom
South America, for example, you will probably
have more exposule to Nolth American
English. If you live in Europe, most likely you
will be more exposed to British English.
The second thing to think about is why you
are learning English. Is it for business?
Travel? To watch movies? Think about the
kind of English you plan to use and focus on
understanding people from that area.
But no matter where you study English or
whether it's British, American, Austlalian, or
whatever, it's good to know a little about
English in other countries.
A. the accent
E. all of the spelling
C. some of the words
4. The best English in the world is
A. British English
B. American English
Í. No English is best
5. The best English for everyone to learn is

B. American English
§ it depends on why the person is learning
English and the küd of English he will be
exposed to
