I have read where there are certain county's in the U.S were isolated communities do speak a very archaic form of English.The term "Fall" for Autumn was originally English but fell out of use over here,but is still used in America.

Re: Something from Portugal...
I live in Tennessee and am an officer in a small town county jail and one of my favorite things to say to some of our...er.. guests is " You need to come down from that mountain and stop doing your sister".
