Reflection Time

Hello,
It's Lola Lye hear, signing off. But before I do, I want to tell you everything I've learned. I have learned a lot through this survey and I have had a lot of fun figuring out how to do it. Not everyone is aware of what they're saying or where it comes from, but I think that's what made this survey more interesting. Everyone spoke most or some of the words but none of them really knew where all the words originated from.
This research makes me really want to know what other words, from different base languages, people are speaking, and if theyre aware of it. I want to figure these things out and maybe even do another suvery in order to. Well, that's all. Thank you, everyone who helped with this. Faith, Jasmine, Mrs. Bergman, and all those people who were willing to sit down and take my long survey.

Lola Lye.
Love is all you need.

Just a few RECOMMENDATIONS for Those Curious Lads Out There...

Okay, so this was a very fun research project for me. I really want to know more, but I really don't think I have the necessary time and equipment for that. If you were willing to continue this research in order to find out more, I would suggest going more than just one place. Don't just base your results off the data you got in one little town. Try to travel a bit, get a taste of what others are saying in other places around the country. I think it would be really interesting to see if data is the same other places as it is here at D.H.S. Even if all you can do is go around this one city, that's still better than just a group of kids at one school. I think it would be neat, and a lot of fun, even if it takes a little more effort. I want to know, as I'm sure others do too, how British slang is affecting our slang in the U.S., and it should be interesting to find the data throughout the entire country. Well, thanks for listening!

Conclusion

Hi there,
For my survey, I wanted to find out how much British slang was affecting our slang, as well as how many people were aware of that affect it has. In the end, I discovered that British slang is used often but not too often. I've concluded that British slang does, indeed, affect our American English slang. We have adapted to some of their words and use them frequently or, in most cases, at least hear them said frequently. Also, from my data I've learned that almost none of the people surveyed were even aware of the fact that the words originated from British slang. This survey was a lot of fun for me and very interesting at the same time.
Cheers!
Lola Lye.

Data

English vs. British

Golly, I've got so much to say

Ok, so another thing I asked was "How many of those seven words did you know were British slang before this survey?" My results were pretty expected, hardly anyone knew any of them were. And the data will show you better if you're one of those visual people.

Just a little something to simplify it all

So, lassies, I've picked one of my seven words to show you my data with via graphing. I picked the word crazy and I'm going to make sure to show you the boys' answers versus the girls' answers. It shows that the girls say crazy all the time, a lot more than the boys, who say sometimes more often.
