is now the misuse of bring in this way used to be (40 years ago) the sign of someone from the New York area, but now it’s nation-wide. What are some examples of transnationality?
Is there a single quality difference in the online grammar guides?

Asked on March 4, 2021 in Other.
Though the differences are subtle, they are similar in interpretation.
Selfish (in person, action, or motivation) means lacking consideration for others (i.e. lack of personal satisfaction or profit) or is concerned principally with one’s own personal profit or pleasure.
Self-centered means being preoccupied with one’s own affairs.
