Who should represent the earth?

[EvGa]

the language english is often refered to as american by americans...need i say more i also dont want to hear how your not one of those people or you this or you that kk

Strong generalization is strong.

[MrJoey]

This thread has delivered my daily dose of luls. Please continue.

I don't think a single person would be enough to represent all of humanity. I wouldn't know who to send, but maybe a few experts in a few different fields such as mathematics, language, science, and religion.

american english, thats why. The US has different terms for things then in gb thats why people say "american", or in some options you see American English and UK English.

[Barotix]

I speak American, damn it!

[Jstar1]

but tbh i know i dont much like america as a whole not got anything again individuals just america has a certain mentality.

You might as well tell us that all americans are fat from eating mcdonalds hamburgers.

im well versed iv traveled pretty much all over this country not hard its small compared to america but iv never heard anyone refer to english as uk english or american english its all english. there are no major differences to justify giving it a different name

plenty of countrys speak english but they stil call it english

and jstar1 lol sure why not you said it though

[XemnasXD]

wong just stop...you were wrong from the very beginning..narrow-minded and ignorant as usual and i don't mean those as insults but that's the literal definition of the poorly constructed arguments you're trying to make here...i don't have the patience here to go into full bitch-out mode so im just going to throw out another palm...










plz just...go...

[MrJoey]

Wow, you are retarded wong... First of all, try going to Australia, and see how much of their version of English you can understand, then you might have a better idea of why "American English" and "UK English" exist.

Secondly: I lost my train of thought, probably due to reading your stupid ass posts. That's how retarded they are.

i have the oxford dictionary and it differentiates between Am. English and Br. English...isn't that a british dictionary btw? Different words are used such as custard/pudding or words are spelled differently like theatre/theater etc.

Ironic how you are implying americans of being ignorant...lol

not so much ignorant but self serving and *another word which i cant think of il edit and put here*

But these changes are just bad spelling what reason did they have to change the spelling in the first place? America isnt that old that it pre-dates modern english (someone is bound to comment on me calling it modern english but this is a point of reference from old english which is ye'ol scallywag etc also thats slang so technically not old english but again i cant be arsed to do a history lesson)

[PureStr]

Ban Ki Moon
Im surprised no one mentioned him yet...

[Nick Invaders]

Ghandi

[jay0303]

no one individual can represent the whole planet cause he can't please everyone unless the world is under 1 dictator then things would be different

[conkker]

I'd send Sarah Palin

[NuclearSilo]

Do you people really think of what's right or are you trying to promote your country language?

[EvGa]

An assembly of all the Earth's most prestigious scientists would be our best bet. Maybe a few of the top religious icons to teach them of our strange customs. An artist from every genre, an encyclopedia..um.. idk what else. We'd need an alien greeting kit.

[NuclearSilo]

What's the point of sending someone who doesn't understand what aliens say? We need at least someone with a symbol decoding skill for translation.
