Im sorry i keep bugging you about this! I keep assuming that, like me, you cannot HEAR the exact words they are saying without earphones. I guess ive read more british mystery (and other) novels. Plus i watched Ab Fab over and over (i had cable for a while).
Anyway, if i can hear the exact words they are saying, then i can either suss it out or google it. But if its an aural blur, i dont get it at all. Whereas in american english i would, because it would be easier for me to pick out a single sound.
