British English Help??

[aj-socks.livejournal.com]

I am in really deep need of a beta, particularly one that can help me understand how they speak in Britain because, well, I'm  American and no matter how hard I try my ear just refuses to pick up on the way they speak. However, I'd love it if someone would attempt to explain to me that they wouldn't say that, but tend to say these three thing or whatever. I really want to try to get it. >.<

If anyone is willing to help me... I'd be eternally grateful.

The story I'm writing is for the hp_prisonerfest and it will probably be about 25,000 words - give or take. I'll finish at either the end of June or early July. It will be a second draft, but any mistakes or suggestions would be wonderful. And, of course, it is bottom!draco. If anyone is interested I'll go ahead and send you a PM about it, as it is anonymous so I can't give out any more details here.

(Haha, I'll bet somehow I'll be facepalming it when someone tells me that somehow, I used the word bloody wrong >.< LOL jk jk)

For specific queries, there's the community hp_britglish, if it helps you.Browsing through the memories categories (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=hp_britglish) would probably give you some inspiratation, too.
