Instantly Convert TV Brit-Speak to American Lingo

Say What?! Many wonderful British-made programs appear, in English, on U.S. tv, but it can be hard for us Yanks to follow the dialog. There are many thick regional accents within England, and some characters may supposedly hail from Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Australia, or possibly the most difficult of all to understand, Canada, eh? These also have their particular slangs and colloquialisms unfamiliar to American ears. With the touch of one finger, you can instantly convert the British-isms to a more standard English that Americans can better understand. This might seem too simple to warrant an Insructable, but many people I have told about the trick had not thought about it and have been grateful to use it, so I want to pass it along.

Just turn on the Closed Captioning (CC) feature of your television receiver, usually a button on the remote control, and a simplified and clearer version of the dialog will appear onscreen in text boxes. In order to keep the CC less instrusive on the picture, the text does not follow the script exactly, but just includes what is needed to follow the plot. You also do not need to strain to pick out the muddled dialog from background noise. The CC feature will also work if you play a program you have recorded, since the captions are embedded in the American version of the video. The screen shots are an example I made up for your viewing pleasure.
