Re British influences on speech: Younger Daughter spent last school year at University College London, and picked up a couple of Briticisms while she was there. She nearly embarassed herself terminally with one - back here in small-town Texas, she went into the bank and found a little knot of people sort of in front of the teller. Not wanting to cut in line, she asked, "Are y'all in queue?"
