How do you feel about a husband staying at home with the children if the wife earns more?
Is it humiliating for a husband or does it just make good economic sense?
In Russia, where we have a mainly male-dominated society, it is unusual and frowned upon, however, I understand that in European countries this practice is gaining in popularity.
What do you think, perhaps, you could share your experiences ?
It seems according to my research that the English language in the UK has various different styles, ranging from: Conservative Received Pronunciation, apparently reserved for the Queen only, Received Pronunciation, Standard British English, Estuary English, colloquial English and slang.
Then I believe there are hundreds of dialects and accents to contend with once a foreigner actually arrives in the country.
On top of this, the UK nowadays is a multicultural society, which confuses matters even more, so for the novice language learner how should they begin to choose?
What style of English would you advise foreigners to learn when there are so many to choose from, and why?
My question is, in the 21 century, are these styles strictly adhered to, and do you think that the time has come to make the English language more modern?
What do you think?
