British or American English???

You know some of the differences between the two main types of English, let's see if you can identify and remember words and expressions from both sides of the Atlantic in these easy quizzes:

Divided by Language

You Say Tomato...

English Varieties: Britain and US

British English and American English

Transatlantic Mutations

American English v. British English

The Foggiest Notion

Britspeak

British Terms

Well, easy's not always the right word. Some of the quizzes are of average difficulty for natives, either British or American. Anyway, you'll see that some of the questions are repeated in several quizzes, which will increase your chances of getting better results. Have great summer fun!

19/25 on the "You say tomato" quizz. Tomorrow more. It's interesting, I'd like to print it; I'll try tomorrow.

They are really difficult but, as you say, the questions are repeated in several questions so I'll do them several times till I learn the answers.
Enjoy the good weather!
