- Is England the name of that country?
- No, it isn't. It's called Great Britain, or simply Britain. England is a part of it.
- Really? So, I'm sorry, I'm mistaken.
- In my opinion you simply mix the names.
- And what about the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland or the United Kingdom? That sounds more official, doesn't it?
- Yes, it's the official name of that country. But you shouldn't forget that though in everyday speech Britain is used to mean the United Kingdom, it's the name of the island which is made up of England, Scotland and Wales.
- Thanks, I've guessed at last.
