- It's 'blatant', and I don't see how that's exclusively used in your country. It's a legitimate word in the English language, not British slang.
True, but it's often used in a slang-y way here. If that makes sense . . . Like, I don't think teens normally used the word regularly until a few years ago and then people just kind of picked up using it all the time, chavs and non chavs a-like:) 'Yeah well 'at's
blatant ain't it mate?'
Still, the meanings the same so it's not really slang, I guess.

- I wonder if the British use words like 'nigga' or 'hype'.
I have lot's of friend's that do. I can't personally pull of nigga, though they seem to, even though there as white as can be. They don't mean to be taken seriously when they say it though. It's something guys tend to call their white guy mates for a lol :z Hypes used pretty generally, I think

- In the UK they say "happy Christmas" instead of "merry Christmas"
I just cant get used to that.
Mmm, yeah we say both. I think we most commonly say Merry Christmas, but happy christmas is used too... doesn't make much different to us :L
