Firstly, I will talk about England. The capital is London.The national emblem of England is the Rose. England is not just countryside–there are elegant, refined and historic cities with Roman, Georgian, Tudor and Victorian influences; architectural splendors; university cities; cathedral cities and other vibrant, exciting cities with museums, art galleries, modern trendy restaurants, nightlife and some amazing theater.
Secondly,The capital of Scotland is Edinburgh and its second largest city.The national symbol of Scotland is the Thistle. All the inhabitants speak English although about 100,000 still speak Scottish Gaelic. Many of the Scottish accents of English are very strong.Scotland is a country of great variety and a rich heritage. Its attraction lies mostly in the great diversity of its landscapes.. Loch Lomond and Loch Ness are probably Scotland's most famous lakes.
Thirdly,The capital of Wales is Cardiff. Cardiff is principal seaport, and shipbuilding centre.The two symbols of Wales are a leek and a daffodil. The three biggest towns include: Swansea, Cardiff and Newport.Wales most famous is the welsh language.Welsh uses several letters which are not in the English alphabet. These include:
ch as in Bach
dd as in English them
ff like English f
ll like English thl
The vowel w is pronounced like the English oo, the vowel y like the English u in but, and the vowel u sounds like the vowel i. So the Welsh word for Wales, Cymru, sounds something like the English come-ri.
Lastly,The flag of Northern Ireland is called St. Patrick's Cross. The national emblem of Northern Ireland is a Shamrock. The capital and largest city of Northern Ireland is Belfast.Ireland is separated from Great Britain by the Irish Sea. The island is politically divided into two parts: the Republic of Ireland or Eire and Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom.A characteristic feature of Northern Ireland is the greenness of the countryside and the cloudy skies above.Northern Ireland is a fisherman's paradise, and the soft green landscape and rugged, picturesque coastline make it one of the most attractive regions in the island.
The four nations have different characteristics.This makes the British culture rich and colorful.Through wrote this blog I am more to like Britain.
