From the book "On Beauty" by Z. Smith:
'So you're DJ,' said H.
'Looks like it - you don't mind?'
'No, no ... although a few our senior guests were finding the selection ... maybe a little bit hectic.'
'Right. You've been sent to sort me out.'
It was strange to hear this English phrase said in such an English way"
My questions:
1.What's so "English" in the above-mentioned phrase?
2."...said in such English way" - what way is it to be considered here an English?
