Hey, remember that Ireland, Scotland and Wales used to have their own languages. Now they mostly just speak English and they're still Irish, Welsh and Scottish. So I don't think you have anything to worry about if a couple of people pronounce words a little American. x)
Not that I don't understand your worry... Especially when people in Finland use increasingly more English and "Finglish" and watch American TV shows and American movies and so on and so on... But then again, there's not much you can do about that... it's so natural for people and cultures to change. Though it doesn't have to mean that they stop existing. But I have to admit that it depresses me so much when languages die... And I keep being worried about all those small Finno-Ugric languages that are only spoken by tiny populations in Russia and we know how Russia is about other cultures... >__> (Russia: Become one with me~ ^J^ Kolkol)
