[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Americans aren't allowed to be "posh". It's considered pretentious here. One of my kids is a bit of a stickler for manners and has a more formal way of speaking. Both kids have good manners with please and thank you and being polite, but she's just has a more refined way of speaking. She's definitely been called pretentious. And I guess she may be, a bit. She's my kid so I know her hearts in the right place and this is just who she is. But Americans definitely have a preference for a looser, more casual way of speaking and it is culturally enforced.[/quote] Good point. [/quote]
