Arghhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
I think I'm going to have to quit as VNA English teacher; crisps are the thin slices of potatoes that come in packets.
Chips are the wedges of fried potatoes that you eat with a hot meal!


Next thing is that you will be using a rubber for the wrong thing (not rubbing out mistakes in your homework!!

If I could get over there to you I would spank you Miss Vette (well at least one of us would enjoy it!)

True story:

My ex (originally a brummie, i.e, from Birmingham, England, not Alabamba!) came over to Canada with her family when she was 16. She did actually ask in class if she could borrow a rubber....

With packets being "bags" in the U.S.

Are all sizes of fried potato wedges called "chips"? I learned two terms as a kid: the thicker ones that we would have with steak or fish are called "steak fries", whereas the thin, square cross-section fries that we would get with a burger are called "shoestring fries".

I never learned "rubber" as an alternative for "eraser". However, I DO remember giggling when I went to the dentist as a young teen because he had a sign on the door asking people to take off their rubbers before entering. Back then, "rubbers" were also the equivalent of "overshoes" (typically ankle high, I believe).

When I were a lad there was only one size of chip, but now we do have different names.
We do call the really thin ones French fries (or just fries) and the larger wedge shaped cuts of potatoes cooked in the oven so that the inside goes really fluffy are usually called (believe it or not) "wedges".
And , unfortunately, Mc Donalds calls there offering "fries - as in "is that with fries (Bill Bryson has a great paragraph or two about that in "Notes from a small Country").

I know of 3 definitions of "faggot", and the last I learnt was the US version!

Personally I love a nice bowl of faggots and peas

Or, sitting on the chesterfield not on the couch or sofa, in the lounge not in the living Room...... Putting your stuff in the boot of the car not the trunk.... And feeling really nackered at the end of the day As opposed to being tired.... Oh and you open the bonnet of the car not the hood!

When you visit England you hire a car you don't rent it..... Always sounds so funny to me.....

Or the confusion I caused in Sears when I asked for a torch (known colloquially as a "flashlight")

I wonder what would happen if I walked into a car dealership and said I was in the market for a saloon, (as opposed to an estate car).

I vaguely recall hearing the term "saloon car" when I was younger, but even then I think someone had to explain it to me. I didn't call them "estate cars", either. The term we used was "Land Yacht".

To repeat from the "All other music" thread, here is the YouTube channel of Lawrence Brown, who moved to America from England. His whole channel is dedicated to the subject of language differences between British and American English and culture.

Also, he has an alternate channel called "The Whisker Reel" dedicated to his cat.

O.k., now I know ANOTHER definition of faggot: British meatballs made from pork offal (organs). Which reminds me of a scene in the movie "RV", starring Robin Williams. I couldn't find a clip on YouTube, so I will have to describe it. His daughter is a vegetarian. They are at an RV park and are the dinner guests of another family at the park. When the daughter states that she doesn't eat meat, one of the hosts says he has something for her, and brings her a bowl of soupy stew. She takes a mouthful of it, and he says "Nothin' but organs!" The horrified expression on her face as she says "Organs?" with her mouth full was fantastic.

Also, there is an island named Faggot about a half-mile offshore of Newton-by-the-Sea in Northern England. It is uninhabited, unlike the island of Lesbos, Greece.

My local butcher - Owtons - does a great game faggot - just imaging trying to get that in the USA!

She said that pubs had lounges and we didn't live in a pub!
But there again she was posh (married beneath her)!

Yes, very enjoyable it was. I had to replace it after it was gone (which was painful in the wallet1).

Top tip - if it happens again, use a sponge and wring it out (kitchen roll just doesn't work as well)

There is the joke about the drunk Scotsman who was walking home after a night in the pub with a bottle of whisky in both coat pockets.
He was so sloshed that he fell over.
As he started to feel a warm liquid trickling down both legs, he cried out "God! I hope that's blood!"
