Okay, so as an American I just gotta say to me: 1) Curtains refers to the cloth around the window while Drapes are the plastic part that goes up and down. 2) Wardrobe refers to a shelf that can open while Closet refers to a room built into the house. 3) CVs are often longer and more detailed than Resumes. 4) We often call Drugstores Pharmacies now. 5) I’ve never heard of the terms Flyover or Dust Bin in my life.

@ajs11201 5 ай бұрын

1) Not quite. Both are used in the U.S., but they mean different things. Curtains hang in place or are tied back; either way, they are stationary. Drapes or draperies (sometimes as a layer over curtains) are often drawn back on a traverse rod. Sometimes at a very formal window, you'll see sheer curtains at the glass and drapery panels flanking either side of the window. 2) A wardrobe in the U.S. can also refer to a freestanding closet. 3) Agree 4) Agree 5) Both flyover and dustbin are British--whoever made the video got those two entirely backwards. Also, at 1:26, they misspelled "faucet." Nice way to confuse students who are trying to learn the language.

@LunaPhoenix2009 Ай бұрын

As a British I can definitely say that 1) Curtains are cloths that people put up on the windows 2) Wardrobe is like a built in storage unit. 3) CVs are used when looking for work and are longer than resumes. 4) We call drugstores- Pharmacy or Chemist 5) We use the word flyover which is a bridge that carries a road over another road. Also we use the word rubbish bin not Trash Can or Dust Bin.

@alvexok5523 19 күн бұрын

I'm American but also spent time in UK. From what I've seen and heard: Curtains are meant as the same thing in both countries. A wardrobe in US is more what we call the range of clothes someone owns where a closet is the room/space we keep them in, where in UK the latter is called a wardrobe. Dustbin is strictly UK where here it is trashcan. It is drugstore or pharmacy here and chemist in UK. We often call a flyover an overpass. I've heard many Americans here call fall autumn, we say both. But fall is rarely said in UK. Calling french fries chips is strictly UK because here we'd otherwise confuse it with potato chips. And we often just say fries and drop the french part. Holiday here is just when referring to a national holiday (Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years, Labor Day, July 4th), we don't call vacations holidays. Gas is usually called petrol in the UK, more so than fuel. We call them both films and movies.

Hi. I am from Bulgaria, and I learn both because in school, we learn British and some American, but from youtube, in some videos, people speak American, in other British and on some parts of the world people are learning British in other American. In the Games, movies and series people speak American. So that's why I decided to learn both.

FYI- Some of these on the American side are not correct…. We say pharmacy (more than drug store), we say overpass, we say trash can or garbage can, some places say sneakers but others say tennis shoes, we say curtains more than drapes, we do say take out or to go. It’s hard to tell from the picture, but that’s not what we say is a trailer. A trailer is hooked to the back of a truck. To me, that pic looks more like a camper or RV.

Depending on what part of the U.S. you're in, or from. A lot of the British terms are used depending on how it's being used. We call faucets taps, "get some tap water" means, get water from the faucet. I've heard jokingly, "I need a torch" when working in dark spaces. It just means a light of some sort. There's a few words that can stump an American like "nappy". I always figured it was kids pajamas. LOL! Videos like this are very useful.

As an American who has lived in the mid-west his entire life, I have never heard of a trash can referred to as a dust bin. It's either a trash can, or a dumpster for the larger collective trash bags for a strip mall or a large business. When I think of dust bin, I think of the dust bins that are connectable to brooms.
