We have speakers of many varieties of English. A lot of the site is written in British English, but in the forum, there is American, British, Canadian, etc.

[Harry Smith]

And European!I meant the official language of UE is English which is a mixture of BE and AE.

[Tdol]

Indeed, Harry; we have spealers from over two hundred countrieson the site.

[Harry Smith]

Can we use this term: European English? I have been using it since the year 2000.

[Tdol]

I see no reason why not- as English internationalises, it would also form international varieties- European English has some different charactistics from Asian English, etc.

Thanks Richard! You are very friendly.

When I teach in the UK, I notice that my European students all speak a very similar English, with only pronunciation differences and have no trouble at all communicating with each other.

[Harry Smith]

As I'm mostly teaching students from Europe I've decided to write a special textbook for them. While teaching I don't feel that they come from different countries. This proves once more that Europe is a Union. By the way the UK is a part of Europe, too.

It is, but as we're an island people, many speakers mean the other side of the Channel when they use the word Europe. I do it too sometimes, though I am very much in favour of the EU.
