Ever Wonder Why Brits and Americans Sound Different Despite Speaking the Same Language?

Take the word ‘router‘ —Americans say ‘rowter‘ while Brits say ‘rooter’! 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Another example?

‘Herb’—Americans say ‘erb’ while Brits emphasise the ‘h‘.

Imagine the confusion! An American asking for the ‘rowter’ in a London office, or a British chef mentioning ‘herbs’ to an American colleague.

These differences add flavour to our conversations, reminding us of the richness of our diverse world.
