Here are some examples:<br><br> British<br>You can phone us on 0800 123123.<br>He looked round the corner.<br>Her accent is different from/to mine.<br><br> American<br>You can phone us at 01 800 555.<br>He looked around the corner.<br>Her accent is different from/than mine.<br><br> Sometimes, Americans can miss out a preposition when British people would always use one, for example with the verb protest. British speakers would always use the preposition about</strong></font>: Some students were protesting about the war, but the preposition can be missed out in American English: Some students were protesting the war.<br> <img alt="" border="0" class="inlineimg" src="images/smilies/1397_2006-02-25_Untitled-33.gif" title="1397 2006 02 25 Untitled 33"><img alt="" border="0" class="inlineimg" src="images/smilies/uu.bmp" title="Uu"><br></font></font></div>
