It's the same with Sottish, Scouse, Welsh, to me it just sounds like another, cooler ^_^, British accent; if that makes sense.

Exactly. If you can understand a Texan, or a New Yorker, you can understand an Englishman.

We both spell properly. It's just we spell differently; it doesn't mean it's wrong.

Meh, I work with an english guy, and I only understand about %70 of what he says because he speaks quietly and too quickly, I just kind of laugh and nod a lot. But there's people from the south I can't hardly understand anything they say.
