    The UK version definitely makes a lot more sense.

    Of course, I am British so that checks out.

        Same. Pretty sure this is just highlighting that Americans have a tenuous grasp on the English language compared to Brits. There are some baffling bumps on the American graph. A good number of Americans have seemingly never heard the words appalling or abysmal before.

        In our defense, we have a lot more residents who speak English as a second language.
