May a suggest the tag #linguistics?

Language Log did a post about this film some time ago. Be sure to check out that "British Movie" link. http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=3514

As eb, I too speak english as a second language. So, yeah, thenewgreen, that sounds like english to me, probably because of the rhythm and the sounds they use.
