Another little item I have discovered about various Englishes.  American English
has had a significant Irish input.  Much of Australia had a lot of Irish convicts in
its early days and its English bears a noticeable  Irish influence too, though
nowhere near the extent of North America.  South Australia (where I am from)
did not have this and thus South Australian English is more directly descended
from official 19th century English English (so far as such a beast can be said
to exist).
