Best I could find on line is that the UK version of that word predates the US one, and may be based on the suacy book "F5 Hill"

English as a first AND second language.

I agree

american english as first, british english as second

to quote John Mclane, "I only speak English and Bad English."

English spoken, American understood (old witticism). I can do both, but when I do the NY Times crossword I have to remember to spell American
8:32 am
mattygroves

And there are some American words that, as they tend to be used by adults, I didn't know (I don't mean RUDE - I mean like Spackle instead of Polyfilla - I didn't have many holes in walls to fill as a kid that couldn't be filled with toothpaste)
8:32 am
hokie carla

I don't think that was McLane(sp?) I think it was BW in Fifth Element. unless he says it in both movies. I just watched Fifth Element the other day.

bunch of nonsense twisty words though!

8:39 am

I liked Bruce only in two movies.. Sixth Sense and Pulp Fic tion.. I think he's a good guy generally Eva
8:39 am

I have never understood the appeal of Pulp Fiction.

really? you're questioning ru's movie likes?

bruce willis generally plays bruce willis.
but i love him anyway.
8:40 am

Molly is more of an Ann Hathaway Princess Bride fan
8:41 am
hokie carla

I thought he retired, but imdb has him in a 2023 "announced" movie
8:41 am
rururocks

he has retired as far as I know
8:42 am
EvaNadine

he has announced his retirement due to health reasons.
that film was likely shot before he announced said retirement.
8:42 am
rururocks

I should also point out that you're completely right with that comment hokie
8:43 am
MollyL

Yeah, well so did Brady and that didn't last long.
8:43 am
hokie carla

which one?
8:43 am
EvaNadine

most of his more recent films were direct-to-video
8:43 am
rururocks

questioning my movie choices :D
8:43 am
rururocks

Brady should have gone out on top and called it a day
8:43 am
hokie carla

well, he has 3 "completed" that are 2022 and the 1 "announced" for 2023. announced usually means not filmed yet
8:44 am

poor Bruce Willis has aphasia, he's not unretiring
8:44 am

He has aphasia. I can't imagine him acting.
8:44 am
hokie carla

yeah, that's the impression I got. bad enough for him to retire
8:44 am
rururocks

I'd never heard of Aphasia before this
8:45 am
hokie carla

wtf is alcopop?
8:45 am
origami

Nasty wine coolers and such, hokie.
8:45 am
rururocks

did he have a stroke or something?
8:46 am
mael

it's a language disorder, sometimes it can be transient and sometimes it's progressive or untreatable, unfortunately
8:46 am
MollyL

Fruit-flavored soda with a splash of alcohol in it
8:46 am
hokie carla

why was that allowed on the bee and boop wasn't?
8:46 am
mael

if it's due to a stroke it usually can improve, but it doesn't sound like it in this case
8:47 am
MollyL

Because The Spelling Bee has the weirdest "allowed" list of any word game I have ever played
8:47 am
hokie carla

I know, ridiculous
8:47 am
rururocks

it's too bad he didn't sign up for better movies with better scripts
8:47 am
hokie carla

completely up to that one guy
8:47 am
rururocks

he can certainly act
8:48 am

The first thing I saw him in was the old TV show Moonlighting. I liked him in that.

I loved that show. Why isn't it available for streaming anywhere?
8:52 am
mael

easy bee today though
8:52 am
MollyL

Oh, music rights. But it looks like it may become available soon. Probably on Disney, which I do not subscribe to.
8:53 am
EvaNadine

i read that the main hurdle is that there is a lot of the music in the show + its difficult to navigate getting the rights to those songs.
but it sounds like it WILL be coming to streaming!
8:56 am

Ugh ... 80's music :D
8:56 am

you back off from 80s music, lol
8:57 am

The weirdest "not available for streaming" story I have read is about the movie Dogma. It is not available because Harvey Weinstein owns the rights and he won't release it.
8:57 am

i love Dogma. its actually one of my favorites.
