Description
There are many types of English spoken around the globe; Canadian English is one of them. It is by and large the outcome of the two earliest settlement waves, with an amalgamation of American and British conventions into its composition.
The vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation of Canadian English
Canadian English has its own dictionaries and the Canadian Press has its own style guide. It exists as a separate variety of English, with subtle, distinctive features of pronunciation and vocabulary.
Where American and British spellings vary, Canadian English opts for the British version in most cases, but not all. There are also some words and expressions exclusive to Canadian English, such as the word washroom.
Pronunciation is the most striking difference between British English and Canadian English.
