Question

What are the major cultural differences between the US and England?

Answer 1

As an Englishman, I always felt a major difference was in the scope of our pasts.  For example, an American friend visiting my town simply couldn't comprehend the idea of a 15th century building - understandable, perhaps, given that the building is 3 times as old as his country.

This, coupled with a shared language, makes an interesting combination.

Personally, I think the second biggest cultural difference is sarcasm.  I love it!

Answer 2

Language
