Almost every language in the world has dialects, and American Englihs is no
exception. At the present time there is an interesting study on American speech
habits. This study shows that different words are frequently used in different parts
of the country to denote the same thing. For example, in the east, Americans use
the word “sofa” to denote a soft drink. In some parts of the west, a soft drink is
“tonic”. Such differences are usually a source of conversation and sometimes
misunderstanding happens.
Speech and life all over the world have often changed. New words are being
used when new discoveries are made and new concepts are formed. Usage
determines what is correct or incorrect. Fifty years ago, it was incorrect to say “ It’s
me”. But today it is acceptable simply because most Americans say that instead of
“ It’s I”. People change, so language changes. What is wrong today maybe right
tomorrow.
