just my hapence -“We haven’t heard of it just as much as you haven’t heard of our abbreviation. That’s why the mods don’t assume that people reading would think it means yours anymore than ours. They, unlike you, can appreciate the fact that Americans are but a minority of the population of planet Earth, and Americanisms but a minority of colloquialisms within the English language.”
If you would have looked – you’d have seen that my OP was to the Mods. I didn’t have any Taanos on you.
Maybe American English isn’t the only English in the world, but by far it’s the main English here in the CR. Almost all the posters and Mods, even ones living in Israel, are Americans. There are very few non-American English speakers here!
