Question of the Week suggestionsEach week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Not all English is Created Equal!We speak a funny language: spoken everywhere, but not the same anywhere. Has a South African ever asked for your "stiffie"? Do Australians laugh when you tell them you wear a "fanny pack" when you go out for the evening (not to mention that you buy your candy at Fanny Farmer)? Was something so funny an American Southerner was "like to fall out"?
How about sharing little dialect mix-ups?
