English Facts
English spoken in the USA and the UK differ plenty, in vocabulary, spelling and pronunciation; though it is easy for speakers of either to understand the other
The vocabulary of the English language is by far the widest-ranging of any language in the world - without counting proper nouns there are well over a million words
The worldwide spread of English is primarily thanks to the reach of the British Empire and the USA's growing worldwide influence after the Second World War

Hoboken
Often heralded as the 'birthplace of baseball', Hoboken is a small city within Hudson County, New Jersey. The city's population currently stands at around 40,000 people, from an array of different ethnic backgrounds; owing mainly to its multicultural history. The city's first European residents were Dutch and Flemish immigrants, and during the late 19th century there was a particularly large contingent of German speakers in the city. Unofficially nicknamed the 'Mile Square City' since it occupies such a small area, Hoboken is a great city to learn and use a foreign language.
