| | It is assumed that the tun once also was the base for English brewery casks, whose now largest measure, the hogshead, is of a similar magnitude as its wine equinominent (between 220 and 250 litres). | | | The tun is an old English unit of wine cask volume, holding about 954 litres, almost a cubic metre. | | | Queen Anne’s wine gallon is 231 cubic inches (3 × 7 × 11 in³), which makes the tun based on it exactly 2² · 3³ · 7² · 11 = 58,212 in³, which is a cylinder with diameter and height of 42 in both. |

| | Unit 14: Hawaiian Creole English |
| | In unit 12, we explored the social and educational implications of AAE; in this unit, we explore the social and educational implications of HCE (Hawai'i Creole English). | | | Obviously, students whose first language is a "non-standard" dialect of English (such as AAE or HCE) will have a more difficult time with standardized exams that are written by and for speakers of Standard English. | | | Watson-Grego advocates recognizing HCE as an equally viable dialect in the Hawaiian public school system rather than forcing every student to learn Standard English thereby denying their ethnic/regional identities. |

| | American English is the form of English used by people in the United States. | | | Other nations and groups that use British English include the European Union and, often, the United Nations. | | | Speakers of Commonwealth English should be cautious when asking for a fag (cigarette) in America, as it is a derogatory term for a homosexual in the U.S., although nowadays these alternate meanings are understood in the UK as their U.S. version, dependent on context. |

| | The fleet in Brest will be ordered to the English Channel despite the fact that the first power in the unit's acceptance list would pay more for a move to the Mid-Atlantic than it would for the move to the Channel. | | | The Frenchman, however, is probably unsure that the five silver pieces he's offering to the English fleet in Yorkshire will be sufficient to bribe that unit, and so he could be afraid that this fleet could act against his wishes and either support the London army or attack the French fleet in the North Sea. | | | By simply offering a zero silver piece bribe to a unit in every possible location on the board, and then waiting to see which units accepted the bribes, much of the blindness of blind would be gone. |
