Is British family set-up different form that of USA?

The cool thing about the US is it's made up of many different cultures that all have different ways of comprising the family unit. The "Nuclear Family" is comprised of a Mother Father and (approximately 2.5)Children. That is the basis of what a "normal" family may have for the US. I say "normal" because that is what is taught in health classes and there are various family units in the US. In fact, the aforementioned unit is not even the most common. Many only have one mom or two moms and no dad, or one dad or two dads and no mom. Other families might have A grandparent, Aunt, Uncle, or caregiver. If you are in a home with someone who feeds, houses, nutures, and cares for you (no matter the structure of the family) consider yourself most blessed.

No there probably British people. I'm from England and I call my Mum, Mum. We spell it like that. I dunno what the meaning is or reason some people say Mum or Mom. I dunno what other counties say Mum.

I think those who don't live in one of the countries within the UK should not keep saying that the UK is a country. I expect that those who actually live in a place would know whether it's a country or not. Anyway, in answer to your question, it's probably because they are American sites. Many Americans, as has been proven here, think that the UK is a country. As for the map thing. If you look on a map of Britain or the UK which is printed in one of the UK countries, you will find that it mentions each as a seperate country. Maybe maps made in America or wherever represent them as one.\nI am offended that stupid Americans(or wherever else you uneducated people are from) insist that MY COUNTRY is not a country. Why do you dumb people keep trying to tell English(and Scottish and Welsh) people that our country is not a country?

the bottom line is...americans are pure capitalists whereas the brits are borderline socialists. We in the united states believe in getting all the customers for ourselves and if not kept in check would spend gargantuan amounts of money to to make the competition inexistant. the brits believe in the equality of all like businesses. in the brit ideal, everyone will eventually have his/her share of clients over time regardless of the marketing strategy and funds vested in advertisement.

It would be the Royal House of Windsor. If the colonies which became the USA would not have separated from Great Britain they would still be part of the British Commonwealth with Queen Elizabeth II as their Queen. But this just wasn't meant to be.

Do you mean written like the US and unwritten like the United Kingdom?

American English is based on the Queen's English.  Both are considered English, and, in theory, a speaker of one could understand a speaker of the other.  The biggest difference exists in regional colloquialisms.  Slang varies from place to place more quickly in Britain than America, possibly due to the differences in country size and average population density.  Also, British English is generally considered more formal in appearance.\n\nPersonally, I like the sound and look of British English.\n\nAs to which is more difficult, it depends upon which one is most familiar with.  Brits and Europeans would likely be more comfortable with the British form.  Residents of South America, Mexico, and the United States would likely prefer American.  Canada would likely be a mixed batch, due to its proximity to the United States and its close ties with Britain

I don't know what you were reading but i've never seen anything like this. I don't mind American people, but it is slightly annoying when American users ask questions on the British Answers, concerning stuff going on in the US.
