:) Sounds like a good idea! but its not even just Canada vs. US---i have a few friends from Vancouver and Toronto and thier language is totally different!

haha...They get a total kick out of us Californians saying "hella" and "whack" and "dude"!!! ;D I was told we sound JUST LIKE the drugged hippie Californians they show in comedy movies! hahahaha :D

lol sorry I wanted to correct somethin here. we dun say mad here in Brampton. We say maddddd.

as for the whole mad cow beef, i think that was your cousins own flare cuz i def dun say or heard of that one.
Also the term juice (the verb to juice referring to juicing) was brought upon by maintstream hip hop and was made mainstream by the Southern and Eastern USA states. Juicing or juice doesn't necessarily mean pre-drinking it jus means drinking in general.

Ok, so not necessarily a national language, but for all practical purposes it's a language none the less. It has its own way or writing, its own words and letters (alto, soprano, b flat), its own way of speaking, etc.

Different cultures have different sounds, but still music is universal.

Also, something that I think is kinda cool, is the fusion-in a sense-of different styles from different cultures in song. Example, swing jazz in "Do you wanna partner." Pretty sexy.
