Never been there. I imagine it is like them coming here. Large communication gaps.

America and England - two nations separated by a common language.

It's true. I had a helluva time understanding the locals until my ear dialed in on their regional dialects. Some of them sound like a foreign tongue to our American ears.

Dialects are tribes.
But in general they are cousins.
