You'll would say UFO (unknown unidentified flying object), and we would say OVNI (objet volant non identifié = object flying not identified).
Indeed, even English speakers don't always agree.
Yes, that's not very helpful but at least things aren't too boring that way!
Most native English writers agree about the exclamation point, regardless of their native land. The comma, maybe not so much.
ETA: And I would need to correct my code.

Yeah, I was tossing up over the first 'would'.
Anghara:
I think you all speak remarkably good English for a bunch of foreigners. :P
Of course, my English isn't perfect, but then, I've spent too much time in the US, or watching the myriad TV shows they export to over here, so I'm polluted, or corrupted, or possibly both. Either way I remain English. God save the language, because I do think we are on the slippery slope to a global tongue, and it won't be "English English".
Oh, and Jezabel, your English is way better than my French, so I don't think you have anything to worry about. I do try, but as you say, unless you can think in the language, you can't really speak it without messing up the flow of it. I can get by, but every Frenchman knows the minute I open my mouth that I'm English, even if I don't start my sentences with "Um..."

My English is generally good except when I deliberately type like a moron, which I only do in jest. The only people who notice anything wrong with anything I write are the HEIL GRAMMAR types.
I unwillingly know some Spanish only because taking a course on it was required for my associate's degree.

You might want to keep in mind that there are some "HEIL GRAMMAR types" pretty high up in the pecking order around here, so yeah. And why "unwillingly"? There's nothing wrong with knowing a second language.
