(UPI) U.S.-Great Britain Language Barrier By DICK WEST Washington - (UPD - Among the missives that found their way into my pillar box this week was a commun i c a tion from the publishers of the New En cyclopedia In ternational. It arrived on the ! day that Sir Winston Chur chill became west an honorary U.S. citizen, which was ap propriate because it also con cerns Anglo-American friend ship and understanding. Tlie encyclopedia people are seeking to help the United States and Great Britain bridge the language barrier that separates the two coun tries. They are doing this as a public service although I gath er they wouldn't object to sell ing a few encyclopedias along the way. For many years, as you know, our relations with our British cousins have been fairly amiable, give or take the Skybolt missile and for mer Chicago mayor "B i g Bill'' Thompson. The one major impedi ment has been our speech. Our speech and their speech. It is very difficult for us not to become irri tated by the way the British talk, and vice versa. The "pillar box" mentioned above is one example. In Britain, a pillar box is the place where you put the moil. This is the sort of thing that shakes our confidence in the mother country. We can only hope that they don't put pillars in the mail box. Recognizing that complete rapport can never be estab lished as long as such lingual friction exists, the new en cyclopedia has included a sec tion called "American Eng lish" which brings the con flict out into the open where it can be examined by both sides. There are. it tells us, at least 5U.O0O vocabulary differ ences between American Eng lish and English English. Clearly, certain concessions arc in order. As a starter, I proposed that we adopt the English English term for the Ameri can English "bouncer." Over there, they call him a "chucker-out," which is a more accurate job title. It has been my observation that persons ousted from bars, UARSIIV ASHLAND 482-3321 OUR HAPPY EASTER SHOW!

It is true that water heat ers in Britain once erupted almost as regularly as Old Faithful, but I'm told the plumbing has improved. I also would give the nod to the American English "thumb tack" over the English Eng lish "drawing pin." Then, to even things up, we should embrace the Eng lish English version of cal isthenics. In the British Isles, reducing or body-building ex ercises are called "physical jerks." Obviously, that is much superior to American English, for it describes not only the exercises but the people who take the exercises.
