"Lovely"

I think that many British people and European people often use the expression "lovely." Americans almost never use this expression.

I am not British so I don`t know for sure, but my image is that they say things like:
"What a lovely day."
"Ah~ isn`t it lovely tea."
"Oh~~ that would be lovely."

Sometimes different English accents and expressions make me laugh. But all of the different English accents and expressions in the world is interesting I think.

Recently Ms. K went to England to check out the sites. She said that she really enjoyed herself, but unfortunately, she got a cold on the back end of the trip, so that was a bummer(=downer, depressing thing) for her. All in all though, she said she had a swell time.

Her on-line photo album wet my appetite for England..."Cricket anyone!?" ;)
