One of students showed me one table. The table has three columns.
What the British say..........What the British mean.............What others understand.......
1: I hear what you say.........I disagree and do not want to discuss it further......He accepts my point of view.
2: That's not bad........That's good.........That's poor.
3. I almost agree........I don't agree at all.......He's not far from agreement.
There are 15 rows like these in the table.
What I would like to ask is:
Is the table right?
Does the word "others" include American, Australian, Canadian..ect?
Thank you very much.
