Very interesting, I didn't realize that about the school classmen. American English and British English have certainly parted ways, just like Australia. My friends form England always like to make fun of American English, but there are some words used in England that I have no clue what they mean!

Yeah, no kidding. I can figure out normal words just from context, but when they start using slang... some of that Brit slang is just bizarre and I can't even guess. Then there's cockney rhyming slang. Might as well be another language for all I can understand it.
