'Tis not my fault the difference in intellectual ability of several individuals mask nothing compared to the intellectual ability of one dog. It simply is the formulated response towards those individuals such as WannaBet and yourself Kiroll that determine the inability of the human species to other species around the globe. |

You completely pulled a strawman and did not address the fact you used linguistics incorrectly.
Regardless, I'll answer.
The primary language used for legislation in the united states is English, more so, American English, and as Verc so kindly pointed out - there are A LOT of differences between English and American English - these are primarily dropping of certain letters, or even different terminology.
Right let's get into quoting and destroying...
"There's a difference between slang and accented abbreviations."
See: Colloquialism - slang is a form of colloquial language, and "accented abbreviations" I can only interpret as, "Where I from it's common to say y'all over you all" which again, is colloquial language.
"The American English diction isn't the same depending on state, there is no specified "American English" as it is not the acclaimed legal language of the United States."
See the above talk about the primary use of American English in legislation.
"It is simply the majority, your logic is incomplete."
Go home.

I don't see how this disproved my point.
Colloquialism contains both accented abbreviations and slang, yet accented abbreviations are different from slang. They simply are grouped together in a larger ordinance.
You are also simply wrong in the viewpoint front of the "American English" as the legal language of the United States. It is simply not true.
I suggest reading the constitution and declaration of independence before anointing the fact that the American English is used primarily in legality. It is not. |

its primarily used nonetheless and there is no denying it
nd is cool |

WannaBet sure is dumb.
" Imperial I am "7'2 you little munchkin "
"7'2 means he's 2 feet and 7 inches.
Should had said 7'2".
please tell me this was completely ironic and you're not as stale as you're appearing to be |

"Colloquialism contains both accented abbreviations and slang, yet accented abbreviations are different from slang. They simply are grouped together in a larger ordinance."
That has not disproved my original point or my answer to your strawman. If anything you're arguing my case.
Slang is shortened language (sho##########se are terms such as
Y'all
Ain't
etc.
Again, you have not clarified what an "accented abbreviation" is, I have even googled this term and no results.
So, I'll reiterate what I said in my answer to your strawman: I will include things like y'all as technically that is a southerner abbreviation merely adopted by other Americans.
Oh, and you're going off of ~250 year old documentation? Because the English language hasn't changed since then has it? (This is what people who study linguistics may look at, the change in structure and grammar (etc.) of a language over time)
If you look at any bill, or legislative document, it will be written in modern day American English.
And if you're actually going to try and argue for the DoI, I will say this: It was written in at-the-time American English (Or maybe just English, from a few images I cannot find any discrepancy from English). It is not written in a foreign language such as Spanish or whatever the Native American's spoke in.

Oh an America has no "official" language - no country does, one can define a country's language by the primary spoken language, or the whatever the language legislation is written in.

At least Wannabet's sense of insecurity isn't as high as having to tell everyone on Roblox.com that he's a world famous child actor with a photographic memory, a jet and a seal team escort.
