Almost every language in the world has dialects and AmericanEnglish is no exception At the present time there is an interestingstudy which is on American speech habits This study has shownthat different words are frequently used in different parts of thecountry to denote the same thing For example, in the east,Americans use the word "soda" to denote a soft drink In someparts of the west, a soft drink is "tonic" Such differences areusually a source of conversation and sometimes misunderstandinghappens

Speech and life all over the world have often changed Newwords are being used when new discoveries are made and newconcepts are formed Usage determines what is correct and what isincorrect Fifty years ago, it was incorrect to say "It's me." Buttoday it is acceptable simply because most Americans say thatinstead of "It's I." People change, so language changes What iswrong today may be right tomorrow
