There are millions of English libraries available. You can look for the closest in Google Maps.

## Codecs

English can be programmed in several codecs, allowing the programmer to program the way they want. Appreciating different codecs is a small step in bridging the world of programmers, allowing individuals to achieve common ground and effective communication.

Here, we present an non-exhaustive list of common codecs.

- American English: "That's dope bro."
- British English: "In'nit a bo'oh o wo'ah?"
- Australian English: "Yu wot mate!?" (mate == bro)
- Singlish: "Eh, I'm hungry, let go makan." (makan == eat)
- Chinglish (Canto): "Aih, 又系 A-min." (A-min == A-minus)

Codecs are also polymorphic and evolve over time.

## Community

The English community is vibrant, with more than 150 distributions available. For a complete list of forks see [List of dialects](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dialects_of_English).
