...but American English is so far from the root/base of the language that it's like you're comparing apples to battleships.
I love that they show subtitles on American TV when anyone speaks English with anything other than a London accent :haha:
Anyway, I sound like Jude law when I speak so it doesn't apply to me :p |

If we're really going to say it the Farsi way, it should be spelled "Eedan," since that is the closest English orthographic approximation to that pronunciation (unless maybe you are Scottish). |

| No. The "I" is like the "I" in "India". You don't say Eee-ndia unless you are a Doctor Evil. |
