Darklighter Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 I am from 'England' (there has been some debate about the use of the word 'Britain', so I say I am 'english') and yes I do say forwards/backwards. So yes its true. Not sure about the other english guys and gal though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divine Spirit Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Its such a small part of the English language that you cant say that all English people say forwards/backwards or forward/backward. There are so many accents and colloquielisms (terrible spelling) that im sure a lot of people say either of the different versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
