do Americans really speak English dramatically？？
i watched a film called ‘john wick’ once. And one of the plots leave me a deep impression that an old man( sry,I forgot his name) said wick was good at hunting.
But !!! Don’t u feel using that word is strange...? Is it just in the film? Or they really speak dramatically 😅😅😂

Answer

Criminals often like to make what they do sound legal and professional. Also they do this with a perverted sense of humour. There are petty criminals who say with pride, that "they are going out to do an honest days work" --> meaning they are leaving home going out to commit a full day of thefts and crimes.

Answer

Rough. Yes.
Dramatic? Maybe.

"John Wick" is a drama. Mayb ethat's the determining factor.
.
John Wick is an assassin. I guess that is like a hunter of sorts.

Answer

While some would describe American dialect as more "rough" and less "posh" than British, for example, we definitely don't speak as dramatically as John Wick characters 😂 . Hunting is definitely a strange choice of word for any other job description, but since John Wick is a contract killer, I guess it fits.
