[00:01.49]American English

[00:03.47]In 1806, Noah Webster published his first

[00:06.91]Dictionary of American English.

[00:08.96]This not only had American words

[00:10.82]and expressions,but also introduced a new,

[00:13.77]simplified spelling which is still in use.

[00:16.39]In the 19th century, American English spread

[00:18.92]with the expansion 1 of the United States.

[00:21.84]After 1848, it was also influenced by massive 2

[00:25.06]immigration from Germany,

[00:27.03]Central Europe and Italy,

[00:28.47]which brought Iarge numbers of new words

[00:30.69]into the language.In the 20th century,

[00:33.52]American English began to influence the rest

[00:36.04]of the world,first through Hollywood films

[00:38.96]and then through television.

[00:41.88]Canadian English

[00:44.09]Canadian English started

[00:44.97]when British loyalists moved north

[00:47.52]into Canada in 1782,

[00:50.29]near the end of the American War

[00:52.61]of Independence.To British people,

[00:55.49]Canadian English sounds similar to American,

[00:58.28]but to Americans is sounds slightly British!

[01:01.03]Canadians use many Americans
