don't forget to replace the "tt" and "t" in words with "dd", e.g. better = "bedder" or British = "Briddish".
New = Noo (Noo York)
Tap = Fawsett
Bonnet (of car) = Hood
Boot (of car) = trunk
pavement = sidewalk
Down south we don't say Noo York, we say (That stinking liberal east coast)
Tap is what you do when you want someone's attention and their back is to you (Tap them on the shoulder)
Bonnet is what little girls wear to church
Boot is either foot gear, or thrown out (We gave Saddam the boot)
Pavement means a manmade, hard surface outside. Sidewalk, Street, parking lot, etc.
Maybe we should have a separate thread on this - "How Americans spell things or change words totally"

Humm, last time I was in the UK, I noticed even yall' speak differently depending where you are at in the UK. So it really sounds like you are just going into your picking on the U.S. mode again.
