simple past tense in situations where the present perfect
would usually have been used in British English
Past tense forms
Some verbs have different simple past and past participle forms in American and
British English:

got
got

Use of prepositions:

In British English, TO and FROM are used with the adjective different, e.g.:
This place is different from/to anything I've seen before.
In American English FROM and THAN are used with different, e.g.:
This place is different from/than anything I've seen before.
Use of verbs have and take:
In British English the verb HAVE occurs with an object noun
which describes an action, e.g.:
I'd like to have a bath.
She's having a little nap.
In American English, the verb TAKE is used in these contexts,
e.g.:
Joe's taking a shower.
I'd like to take a bath.
Why don't you take a rest now?
Verb agreement with collective nouns:
In American English collective nouns are always followed by
a singular verb.

In British English both plural and singular forms of the verb
are possible:
Which team is/are losing?

Student´s Task - 2
Dirty Dan
Scotland Yard police are looking for a famous American bank
robber called Dirty Dan. Dirty Dan robbed a bank in London
last Friday night. They are interviewing three different
people. All three have British accents, but the police know
that Dirty Dan can imitate a British accent. Read parts of each
of the transcript. Can you identify Dirty Dan from the
language he uses?
Suspect 1
I already said this. I didn’t do anything special on the weekend. Friday night I
took a shower in my apartment and then went out to see a movie. It was a movie I
had already seen, Matrix Revolutions. I really like action movies. I went with my
girlfriend Samantha.
Suspect 2
I wasn’t in town at the weekend, and I certainly wasn’t anywhere near the bank on
Friday night. I was at a hotel in Paris with a special friend of mine. Shall I give
you the hotel phone number? You needn’t bother asking me any more questions.
You’ve got the wrong man.
Suspect 3
I’ve already said this. On Friday night I went to see a film at the cinema. It was
Matrix Revolutions. I don’t really like action films, but my friends really wanted
to see it. It was rather boring. After that I went home and had a nice hot bath. I
went to bed around midnight.

Lift – elevator, taxi – cap, chips – French fries, lorry – truck,
