@berefined: If you don’t want to sound American say this differently. When talking about the weekend, British English uses ‘at the weekend’, whereas American English uses ‘on the weekend’. Most Australians have unfortunately adopted the American way, and say ‘on the weekend’. If you like sounding American keep using it…however now you know, you don’t really want to sound American, do you? Perhaps it’s time to start saying ‘at the weekend’. #vocabulary #grammar #english #speakenglish #learnenglish

I think the Australian accent saying on the weekend will clue people in that they are Australian not American. Are all Brits this stupid?

So why are you implying that Australians should change how they speak to sound more British? That sounds offensive to Australia and more than a bit colonial minded. And why on earth do you seem to believe that British English is superior?
