How many people in the world speak English (as their first language) do you think? Go to www.wikipedia.org to find out!
Even though so many people speak English, the variants of English are all very different! Do you know the differences between American and British English?
Any idea if any other languages are spoken in England?
Have a look at the following links of Woodlands Junior School:

3. Why do the Americans speak differently than the British?
