what's the difference between American and English culture?
I find there is not slight difference between American
culture and English culture.When I listen to the BBC
radio 7 which includes talk shows,dialogues and novels,
I find it hard to understand its humour and meaning,
but I find it easy to understan American programmes.
why?it must be something different.American English
is more from life,whereas British English is more
from abstract.

1 People speak with different accents
2 The education is different.
3 For me,it just feels different.
