The Queen's English

I have no problem with the Queen's English, even with linguistic pedants.

I just happen to like other varieties too (the Dorset dialect, "Ebonics" and rap-talk).

"I ain't never did no wrong" and "You ain't nuthin' but a hound dog"
are two very expressive examples of the King's English (courtesy of the late King of Rock 'n' Roll).
