Like, do you speak American?

http://www.pbs.org/speak/articles/

Check out this interesting article I found on PBS!

It discusses influences on modern American English:
  • Regional accents/slang
  • Immigrants
  • Popular music and media
  • Spanish
  • Culture
  • Technology

As an international student, what do you think of American English? Give me your perspective. If you are learning English as a second language, how have you been challenged by slang, etc.?
