habbywall wrote: *okay, if you are British could you please simply add some phrases that you people say and what American folks say instead of your terms, thanks to anyone who responds * Interesting question. I sometimes include translationsin some of my posts. Several people have mentioned "pop"already. Remember a few years ago, the English nanny and the shaken baby? There was a big court case (murder trial) and the nanny said she had "popped"the baby in its cot. The prosecution lawyer tried to make somethign of this because "pop"sounds like it means "burst". To "pop": verb, intransitive, often followed by "over"or "into". To make a short quick journey that presents no difficulties. Verb, transitive, to place something quickly and easily, usually into something. As for unicycling terms: you say sidewalk, we say pavement. Can't think of many others. -- Mikefule - Roland Hope School of Unicycling Competing with yesterday to hold off tomorrow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mikefule's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/879 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/42370 |

A couple of things that spring to mind that would not be condsidered amusing or rude in Britain would be Can I borrow your rubber? which means... Can I use your erasure. Can I bum a Fag? means....
