How often do you hear "gotten"? I know the word is stigmatized by some as an Americanism (despite predating the British colonization of North America by centuries), but that it's making a comeback due to U.S. influence and has also been continuously used in some regions.

Don't hear it much, where I live. I probably use it the most, out of everyone I know. But that's probably because I'm hyper-americanized
Chase Hill
I like to think that I'm anglo'd rather than americanised
Jace Sullivan
Extremely. My inner monologue is in American English, my cultural exposure was 90% to American musicians, American art, American culture as a whole... I sometimes speak English better than my "native" tongue.

Only if you use the word, "okay" in everyday speech.
Jordan Morgan
Not much but there are some things that I do which could be labeled as American; like wearing my shoes inside the house.
Zachary Sanchez
I do. I use all kinds of "Americanisms", like using "like" a lot, "okay" to start assessing a situation, and "plus", as an additional replacement for "and".

Interesting. I occasionally hear Brits on the internet use "got" as the past participle and it's always jarring (no offense). Using it as the past participle is not entirely unknown in the United States, but it's only done seldom and in very long sentences, and the standard language always demands "gotten".
