I don't think a single person would be enough to represent all of humanity. I wouldn't know who to send, but maybe a few experts in a few different fields such as mathematics, language, science, and religion.

Wow, you are retarded wong... First of all, try going to Australia, and see how much of their version of English you can understand, then you might have a better idea of why "American English" and "UK English" exist.

Secondly: I lost my train of thought, probably due to reading your stupid ass posts. That's how retarded they are.

1 its american

in england we have different dialects we dont call them English (Black Country) or what ever so english emerican isnt a different language thus should not be considered one

i have the oxford dictionary and it differentiates between Am. English and Br. English...isn't that a british dictionary btw? Different words are used such as custard/pudding or words are spelled differently like theatre/theater etc.

Ironic how you are implying americans of being ignorant...lol

not so much ignorant but self serving and *another word which i cant think of il edit and put here*

But these changes are just bad spelling what reason did they have to change the spelling in the first place? America isnt that old that it pre-dates modern english (someone is bound to comment on me calling it modern english but this is a point of reference from old english which is ye'ol scallywag etc also thats slang so technically not old english but again i cant be arsed to do a history lesson)

no one individual can represent the whole planet cause he can't please everyone unless the world is under 1 dictator then things would be different

Do you people really think of what's right or are you trying to promote your country language?

An assembly of all the Earth's most prestigious scientists would be our best bet. Maybe a few of the top religious icons to teach them of our strange customs. An artist from every genre, an encyclopedia..um.. idk what else. We'd need an alien greeting kit.

What's the point of sending someone who doesn't understand what aliens say? We need at least someone with a symbol decoding skill for translation.
