Culture General American EnglishGeneral American EnglishGeneral American English (GAE) is a term for the standard English of the US, though few Americans have heard of the name. GAE includes grammar and vocabulary as well as pronunciation. It can be compared in some respects to standard British English spoken with an RP (Received Pronunciation) accent. GAE can be used as a standard of comparison for examining other dialects and accents, though it does not imply that they are less good or wrong.GAE is especially common in the Midwestern part of the US, although speakers of GAE can be found all over the country.
