    Actually, modern American English apparently is closer to the English from old days than modern day British English is. Always found that to be an interesting tidbit.

      Shakespeare apparently rhymes better in American accents than British ones, since it was written before the Great Vowel Shift. I’m not cultured enough to notice but I like this piece of trivia.
