INTRODUCTION
English is the most widely spoken language in the world. Not only are there hundreds of millions of native English speakers, there are also hundreds of millions of speakers who learn English as a second or foreign language. English is the international language of business and science; it is the universal language of the internet. It is a global language. But this global language is not the same everywhere you go.The fact that this vast number of English speakers is spread all over the world results in a large number of varieties of English language. Each of these varieties has its specific characteristics – some of them are easy to recognize by a specific intonation, some by a specific set of vocabulary, and others by an unusual usage of particular grammatical phenomena.The motivation for this thesis was our own experience with different varieties of English. Time spent in the United States, United Kingdom and Northern Ireland was eye-opening when it came to the knowledge of the specifics of different dialects. We decided to focus on the British and American dialects, as they are the most commonly spoken dialects.This thesis aims to focus on differences between British and American English. It aspires to describe the origins of the English language and the history of English in the USA and compare selected differences between the two dialects and demonstrate them with examples. There are many “manuals” written for British English speakers travelling to the United States, or Americans travelling to Europe where they may encounter British English,telling them how not to embarrass themselves or cause confusion. We have not been able to find a comparative linguistic study focusing on all aspects of the language. The core of this bachelor thesis is centered on selected differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary.
The main aim of is to study the influence of globalization on the creation of their meanings and division by their structure, comparative study of the ways of creating neologisms in British and American english.
