Which of the following had the GREATEST influence in creating differences in British English versus American English

History

QveST [7]1 year ago

The correct answer is: Cultural values.

Noah Webster believed it was important for America to assert its cultural independence from Britain through language.

INTERPRETATION-

The British actually introduced the language to the Americas when they reached these lands by sea between the 16th and 17th centuries. At that time, spelling had not yet been standardized. It took the writing of the first dictionaries to set in stone how these words appeared.

In the UK, the dictionary was compiled by London-based scholars. Meanwhile, in the United States, the lexicographer was a man named Noah Webster. Allegedly, he changed how the words were spelled to make the American version different from the British as a way of showing cultural independence from its mother country.

Therefore, we can conclude that the correct option is D.

First the person will be located in the smokey corners of the building.

 He smells fire as he starts walking out a bit farther from the building.

 The person sees dead bodies but chooses to ignore it.

 He hears the battle cries of the soldiers who are fighting for their lives.

 He touches the side of a dead face that used to be his sisters but the look of it seems as distant memory.

 He then starts thinking if we win this battle we can get: our enemies cargo and retrieve many gifts from those around us for saving their homes and also we will have the honor of all of our enemies being destroyed!

A week after this battle we will be rich and happy! For we will have conquered our enemies and will never have to worry again! Lets defeat them!
