Yeah, I don't think it applies to the word 'citizen' though, it's a latin word, 'Citizen Vitae' - for example.
I don't think Z is in the latin alphabet. J isn't either. Latin probably uses X for that sound, same as Greek. "Xerxes". Julius Caesar is Iulius Caesar in Latin. Either way Citisen is the correct spelling in English. Spell checker on this board is American English. I wouldn't mark you down for using Americanisms typically.
Your passport doesn't call you a citisen at all. You aren't one. You are a subject. This is a monarchy, not a republic. You are a British National. We're all free men here, the state lays no claim to us. We don't own it or any part of it. The Queen does. Curriculam Vitae I know. Citizen Vitae, I've never come across. I stand corrected. Z is a letter in the Latin alphabet. Thank you for the lesson.
@Baff's alright, loves his country, what fella would blame him, he is British afterall. another latin word for you... Liberty.
Yeah, well, I've been to the room the US was born in. Where they signed it all. I saw something British oh so far away from that empire and touched it. )) - The Liberty Bell, and I swear it was cracked before I got there before you go pointing your finger to me. That has been in Philadelphia since 1876, built in London at the same factory as Big Ben, which is the name of our bell. And then I saw a plaque, left by the Queen in 1976; and it thanked America for teaching this empire and I feel proud that an old dog can learn new tricks, and that's what happened there. Liberty, the shot heard around the world. Made Britain socially better, but we don't want Big Brother or a tyrant.
The country where folk thought the X Files had the most to say on what is really going on? On the brightside, Gillian Anderson is semi-Brit
Being British like Obama said in 2011 when he addressed Parliament as US President, was about being able to fly your Union Jack. If a Union Jack is made in Hong Kong (btw still more free and British loving than China who also like the UK).. does that make me any less British if I fly it? My passport, will be blue, I am a British Citizen, my British passport will say my place of birth, and it's the UK's biggest city, so what if it's built in France, does that make me any less British if I fly with it?
I don't do conspiracy theory. I merely know that the Tories have taken millions from the Russians and therefore cannot be trusted in constructing reaction.
If you think he was a socialist then you really need to have a re-think. Please don't read the Mail in the meantime. It won't help!
Yanks don't get it. Flag waving is entirely un British because for us it draws connotations with the Nazi's. Americans fly their flags everywhere. Rare to see a Union Jack being flown here. One of things the Republicans always used to bash Obama for was being so unworldly. Ignorant of foreign cultures and their customs. I remember sticking up for him at the time since it was much in the vein of Trump bashing is today, but they were right. He was ignorant as anything. Everywhere he went. Little American.
