"JIEDDO" (which is milspeak) is the only one I didn't understand.

JIEDDO is an organization over in Crystal City.

You Americans can be so amazingly arrogant it is unbelievable. I mean, you've butchered the language, made it so whiny and nasal. Actually, it's the other way around. In the 1750s it became the "thing" by the British Upper Classes to change the pronunciation of words so that English would sound more Frenchy and Romantic.

American English is the more pure form of it.
