"besides I was educated /brought up in an english speaking country"
There is only ONE English speaking country, as far as Im concerned.
An Englishman's way of speaking absolutely classifies him,
The moment he talks he makes some other
Englishman despise him.
One common language I'm afraid we'll never get.
Oh, why can't the English learn to
set a good example to people whose
English is painful to your ears?
The Scotch and the Irish leave you close to tears.
There even are places where English completely
disappears.
Professor Henry Higgins
Professor Higgins was completely sober when he penned those famous lines.
He couldn't have allowed some adulterated Scotch to influence his writing.
1. The creator of "Professor Higgins" was Irish - the character is a parody.
2. "Scotch" is of course, a whisky.
Just to pour a little oil on the fire :
François forgot the last line of the tirade of Prof. Higgins :
"In America they haven't used it for years "
Hah, hah, lukylok, I didn't forget I just left that last line out.
But should add this line,
In France every Frenchman knows
his language from "A" to "Zed"
The French never care what they do, actually,
as long as they pronounce it properly.
Professor Henry Higgins or as some Brits would say, Enry Iggins.
Higgins may have thought he had achieved success in turning Eliza out as a lady fit for society - until the racing at Ascot, Despite the gorgeous dress, once her horse seemed to be losing, she shouted the immortal lines, "C'mon Dover! Move yer bloody arse!"
One of the features of the Scottish legal code is that there is actually no such offence as gay incest - it being reserved for disgusting heterosexuals
...lucky for U then
