Britisher to Teach English
LONDON—(UPI)—An enterprising member of Parliament has opened a language school, one of whose objects is to teach Americans to speak English.
The school's operator is Richard Reader Harris, who says to-mah-to, instead of to-may-to.
"It's by public demand (pronounced dee-mahnd)," he said. "I keep meeting Americans who want to acquire just that touch of the old school tie or Oxford accent for business or social purposes.
"They seem to think it adds a bit of class (clahas)."
The idea (eye-dee-ah) of Americans having to learn their own language made me laugh (larf), but I showed up at the Imperial Language Center in Jueens Gate today as the first pupil.
"It's not as unusual as you might think," said the principal, Peter Darby, fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. "Ever since British actors have begun to do well in the United States efforts have been made to imitate their accent.
