'Here we go' can be negative or positive in BE. It can be said before an unpleasant event, but it is also sung by football fans.  | I found it in the dialogue in Star Wars.
By the way, as a British, why do you think C3-PO speaks with a broad British accent? | I believe it was because C3-PO and his kind were fashioned after English butlers. :wink: Their job was to serve humankind in various aspects of life. | Any comments on this one, Red5? |
