An interesting article from the BBC mentioning that native English speakers can be quite incomprehensible o non-native speakers.
We English speakers do have some "communication difficulties. I found it a very interesting read even though I already know that slang should not be used when talking to foreigners because they are not likely to understand the finer poins of mangled English.
Not much point calling you lot a bunch of galoots. You wouldn't know what I meant. (Ricketyclik would know).
