I'm going to have to make lingual adjustments to prepare for our UK move such as using fewer "Zs" (specialise instead of specialize), more "Us" (colour instead of color), and day before month in dates. If I can only undo everything I've picked up in the last twelve years, I will be fine.
I've already learnt new phrases as I surf UK websites and forums. My favorite so far - "bum bags" for "fanny packs".
Do others come to mind? After all, I want to speak properly.
