Canada & Malaysia: signal, because you’re signaling which way you’re going. UK & Australia: indicator, because you’re indicating either left or right. USA: BLINKER BECAUSE BLINKS
I am from Malaysia , and tbh I really confused with english variations haha . Sometimes I afraid to say something in english language because of this hahaha
But a g-string is different from a thong in the US. A thong is usually thicker and covers more area. A g-string doesn't leave a whole lot to the imagination haha.
As kids you don’t have to worry about getting smacked or spanked?? I think that’s what they say in America?? You have to worry about: a) the wooden spoon b) a tea towel Or c) the thong.
In the US, it's regional, but while the category is "soft drink", but you might hear "soda", "pop", "soda pop", or (especially in southern New Mexico/west Texas) "coke". So in New Mexico, even though "coke" most specifically refers to Coca-Cola, you would still hear: "What kind of cokes do you have?" "We have coke, Diet Coke, Sprite..."
It's always been thongs = footwear and g-string = underwear in Australia. I've only noticed very recently the Americanisation of using thong to describe the underwear. And yeah it's always been jandals for the footwear in NZ. (Which is a contraction of "Japanese sandals".)
In the UK, the brand "Hoover" owns the word for vacuum cleaners too. And in Canada (and presumably other places as well) the brand "Zamboni" is so prevalent that I don't even know another word for that vehicle that redoes the ice in a rink.
We do that a lot in the US. Like, a weed whacker is a weedeater, but Weed Eater is a brand. Also Jacuzzi, which is a brand of hot tubs, but we use it as a generic term for a hot tub. Also, in the southern US, "coke" is a generic name for all soda/soft drinks/pop.
Jayson Lloyd band-aid is a brand, look into the history of it and you will see that it has always been called a plaster. Supermarkets don’t sell wall plaster anyway and who buys singular plasters sooo there is a difference. Why do you have to be so ignorant anyway? I literally just said it was both and you come out with some dumb sarcastic comment. It comes from the the word Elastoplast
UK: Bum Bag MY: Waist Pouch CA & AU: Fanny Pack Me: Banana (Then talking to myself like "honey, you are greek! You are learning Engish, you don't know everything.")
Was on British Airlines and a man asked for a lemonade and was handed a sprite. In USA lemonade is a drink made by squeezing fresh lemon juice in water and adding sugar.
Get a Northerner or Scottish person please. Would be interesting to see the North/South divide for the UK. I'm from the North East of England and we definitely say "pop" here in reference fizzy drinks. And that hat would be called a "pom pom hat" up here too. Also, sorry but soft drinks do not include juice. I now pronounce this video unfairly biased to the South. Honestly though I love these videos.
I'm from North East England and I call it "pop" because when I was a child fizzy drinks came in bottles sealed with a cork. When you opened the bottle it would "pop". The hat is a pom pom hat. Without the pom pom it's a beanie. Togs is a familier word for me too, it means clothes (but not swimming clothes). Trousers, pants, are keks. On a sidenote why are trousers refered to as a pair of trousers (plural) but a shirt is only refered to as a shirt (singular)? Yes I know trousers have two legs but a shirt has two arms. A "band aid" is an "elastoplast" (brand name) like "Hoover" is a vacuum cleaner.
I'm Canadian and I would spell it "tuque" not "toque". It makes no sense to have an "o" because no one pronounces it with an "o", and it comes from Canadian French where it is both pronounced and spelled with a "u".
As a Western Australian here's my list... Bum bag. I've never heard an Australian say fanny pack before. Beanie Thongs (Or Jandles) A G-String is not a thong, it is a G-string, but you'd normally just say knickers Indicator (or rarely blinkers) T-Ron-Toe Band-aid Plasters hold bones together, casts hold joints together. So your foot or hand get a cast, your arm gets a plaster. (shoulders get a sling.) Bathers or Swimmers. Never ever, ever, "Togs" "Boardies" "Cossies" or "Budgie Smugglers" Keep all those words in Queensland Took a Sicky (or just sick day). Staying home from school for no reason is "Wagging school" but doing that at work is "Bludging" (Which means, to live off of others with no responsibility) Soft drink/Fizzy drink/cool drink
Kiwi or New Zealand Variation/Slang 1. Bum Bag/waist pouch/fanny bag. Have heard all but I call it a bum bag (people use to wear them behind over the bum... when they first came out many many moons ago... and when you need something you would shuffle to the front...) 2. This is a Wooly PomPom Hat. A bennie doesn't have the PomPom. 3. Jandles. The name 'jandal' combined the words 'Japanese' and 'sandal'. ... The family of John Cowie claim that he introduced the footwear from Japan in the late 1940s, coining the name 'jandal' in the process. oh and a thong is a G-String. 4. Indicator. 5. errr Toronto??? 6. Band-aid/Plaster both are used. 7. Togs. 8. Sick Day / Sickie. 9. Soft Drink / Fizzy However, depends on where in the country as well , and most people will know the meanings of the other terms...
Dinner is dinner, tea is short for teatime. Meals are breakfast, dinner, and tea(time). At least it used be most people eat dinner in the evenings nowadays.
That hat was a beanie. I'm American but I live in Canada and most of the Canadians I know only refer to it as a toque when it doesn't have the pom pom on the top
I’m American. Let’s talk about the last one. Where I’m from (suburban Chicago): Soda- general term for drinks like sprite and coke Pop- off brand or interesting flavors from corner stores or minimarts (The difference between these two isn’t major if you use soda for a cheap no name brand and pop for sprite it’s fine) Sodapop- less common term. Normally think of a drink that you’d have at like a party or get together and aren’t sure what it is. That is, you go to a friend’s backyard cookout or a forth of July barbecue and there’s a refreshment table with a pitcher of soda that could be either sprite or 7-up that you pour into one of the disposable cups (like a red solo cup). This distinction isn’t super important but that’s what I think of, it’s called this because you aren’t sure if it’s proper soda like coke or pop like the Aldi cola so you say sodapop Fizzy drink- carbonated water. Like flavored sparkling water that you might be offered at a similar get together to where you’d find sodapop. Not as common a term Soft drink- would read this more than say it. It’d likely be written on menus as like a section header under beverages. This is more used at sit ins/sit down (restaurant) in an attempt to seem more high end. This might be at moderately nice pubs (jankie bars or sport bars would probably have it listed as pops or sodas, the farther south you go the more likely you’d see sodapop) There are a lot of words for different types of things like bathroom, powder room, restroom, washroom, potty and closet, wardrobe, dresser (Bathroom is more at your house or school, powder room is at a fancy house or really nice place that requires membership like a country club, restroom is at like a store, theme park, loop/ L (subway or metro), basically a standard public place, washrooms are basically the same but at like slightly nicer locations such as a sit in/sit down, potty is like a porta-potty (portable potty) at like fairs and are also training toilets for toddlers) -distinction mainly for what you would say when asking where the “bathroom” is at those locations or when you excuse yourself to go to one or what the signs above the doors would say (Closets are separate rooms to hang clothes and can be small or a walk-in, wardrobes are objects where you hang clothes, dressers are objects that are about waist high and just have draws for folded clothes. Someone could have a walk-in closet with a wardrobe and dresser inside it) I know those last two weren’t talked about but eh just think it’s funny all the variations I have. The distinctions aren’t super important, it’s mainly just soda and bathroom (the last one is important tho) except I think everyone I know would agree and understand the differences Don’t even get me started on the differences between trash bin, trash can, garbage bin, garbage can, bin, and dustbin
I live in the US I call it soda but I have heard pop, soda pop, and coke (coke is only really used down south). The state I live in (Illinois) primarily uses "pop" but for some reason lots of my friends and my family use soda so yeah.
For clarification( from an Aussie, see of any others than I will edit this): We don't use togs, we use cozzies/swimmers We use bum bag not fanny pack Indicator is partially true, we also use blinker Thongs refers to the footwear, thong refers to the underwear
Basically if your country's weather / culture means you wear a certain piece of clothing a lot, you have to have a special word for it. Canada - special word for hat that keeps you warm. Australia - special words for beachwear.
USAer here👋🏽 - fanny pack (never actually new why...but thanks for explaining...) - where i am, it's still a beanie even with a pom pom on it - flip-flops - where i am, we say blinker - band-aid - swimsuit - a sick day - where i am, we say soda, but I've heard it said pop and soda pop as well
American California ( People talk different in the south) 1) Fanny Pack 2) Beanie 3) Slippers/ Sandals / Flip - Flops 4) Blinker/ Signal (Most people say blinker but we wouldn't say "blink right" instead we say "signal right") 5) Skipped (Really just depends on the accent) 6) Bathing Suit/ Swim Suit/ Bikini if 2 piece 7) " I missed work/ I was sick" 8) Soda, we understand soft drink but you only see that written on a restaurant menu and most people just say Soda.
I can't speak for my state because I live on a reservation and I rarely talk to non-native Americans lol so we usually say "turn on your turn signal." or "use your blinker."
Most of these differences we see in the various different countries are also variants within the UK itself, each different region has a lot of different ways of saying things, and its usually from these different regions in the past who would influence the various different colonies. An example from this video is the soft drinks being said mostly in the middle and south of the UK, with more northern parts saying pop, and given it was mostly northerners who influenced Canada, it explains why they use pop. The south of the UK influences Australia and the US more so they would use soft drinks.
M Tech yeah u wouldn’t say it’s ‘regional’ I mean it’s mostly the same except for people within and out that call it different shit, but not specifically
Im from Canada and I never call my winter hat a touque and I never heard any canadians call a singal light an indicator . Im from Nova Scotia so maybe those words are used in the western part of our great country !
I recall fanny packs from the later 1980s. They seemed popular, but not generally fashionable. People who felt they were practical, others a bother, and eventually a marker of nerdiness. I never wore one for a combination of all those reason. I was a traditionalist. I briefly used a leather belt pouch that formerly held two clips for a Lee-Enfield rifle.
10:30 1) hasitasi (has = belly; tasi is short for táska meaning pounch) 2) (kötött) sapka (knitted cap) 3) flipflop/tanga(papucs) 4) index/irányjelző (first one is used in everyday speech, second one is official; irány = direction; jel = sign/signal/mark -> jelző marker) 5) fürdőruha (bathing clothes/dress) 6) betegszabi/szabadság (beteg = sick/ill; szabi is short for szabadság and is literally a 'day off' or freedom or liberty) 7) (szénsavas) üdítő (szénsav = carbonic acid; üdít = refresh)
Please get a New Zealander for the next one (and a proper on not one who doesn’t know what their talking about) it would probably be best to get a Maori guy cause some of the basic white girl kiwis try really hard to speak like the Americans
The Aussie missed true ocker "working class" slang. Thongs is the normal term for flip-flops, in ocker they are called Pluggers where a thong is a g-string, indicators are also blinkers, the togs/cossies are a generic term the Lycra swimming cossies are Budgie-Smugglers because they look like your smuggling a budgerigar bird below the belt if ur male.
I’m referring to when Ashley said that to take a day of work when your not Ill is a sickie, I am not referring to actually being ill and taking the day off

I love how Band-AID owns the word for bandages
Edit: Band-AID brand*
Trevor Allen just like boggie board
Bandages are different. A bandage isn't the sticky part. A band aid is an adhesieve bandage

@@OntarioTrafficMan We use zamboni in America as well. I didnt even know it was a brand until you said it. Apparently the name is "ice resurfacer"

Plaster is something that goes on the wall to fill holes

A G-String is not a thong, it is a G-string, but you'd normally just say knickers
Indicator (or rarely blinkers)
T-Ron-Toe
Band-aid
Plasters hold bones together, casts hold joints together. So your foot or hand get a cast, your arm gets a plaster. (shoulders get a sling.)
Bathers or Swimmers. Never ever, ever, "Togs" "Boardies" "Cossies" or "Budgie Smugglers" Keep all those words in Queensland
Took a Sicky (or just sick day).
Staying home from school for no reason is "Wagging school" but doing that at work is "Bludging" (Which means, to live off of others with no responsibility)

I’m American. Let’s talk about the last one.
Where I’m from (suburban Chicago):
Soda- general term for drinks like sprite and coke
Pop- off brand or interesting flavors from corner stores or minimarts
(The difference between these two isn’t major if you use soda for a cheap no name brand and pop for sprite it’s fine)
Sodapop- less common term. Normally think of a drink that you’d have at like a party or get together and aren’t sure what it is. That is, you go to a friend’s backyard cookout or a forth of July barbecue and there’s a refreshment table with a pitcher of soda that could be either sprite or 7-up that you pour into one of the disposable cups (like a red solo cup). This distinction isn’t super important but that’s what I think of, it’s called this because you aren’t sure if it’s proper soda like coke or pop like the Aldi cola so you say sodapop
Fizzy drink- carbonated water. Like flavored sparkling water that you might be offered at a similar get together to where you’d find sodapop. Not as common a term
Soft drink- would read this more than say it. It’d likely be written on menus as like a section header under beverages. This is more used at sit ins/sit down (restaurant) in an attempt to seem more high end. This might be at moderately nice pubs (jankie bars or sport bars would probably have it listed as pops or sodas, the farther south you go the more likely you’d see sodapop)
There are a lot of words for different types of things like bathroom, powder room, restroom, washroom, potty and closet, wardrobe, dresser
(Bathroom is more at your house or school, powder room is at a fancy house or really nice place that requires membership like a country club, restroom is at like a store, theme park, loop/ L (subway or metro), basically a standard public place, washrooms are basically the same but at like slightly nicer locations such as a sit in/sit down, potty is like a porta-potty (portable potty) at like fairs and are also training toilets for toddlers) -distinction mainly for what you would say when asking where the “bathroom” is at those locations or when you excuse yourself to go to one or what the signs above the doors would say
(Closets are separate rooms to hang clothes and can be small or a walk-in, wardrobes are objects where you hang clothes, dressers are objects that are about waist high and just have draws for folded clothes. Someone could have a walk-in closet with a wardrobe and dresser inside it)
I know those last two weren’t talked about but eh just think it’s funny all the variations I have. The distinctions aren’t super important, it’s mainly just soda and bathroom (the last one is important tho) except I think everyone I know would agree and understand the differences
Don’t even get me started on the differences between trash bin, trash can, garbage bin, garbage can, bin, and dustbin
Canadian English can be different depending on where you live.
This is really funny! So glad this came up in my recommended!
When y'all were talking about the drinks I just call them soda/pop/ or soft drinks
yeah im from the usa, and ive heard it soda, soda pop, pop, or soft drinks
YAAAAAAAAAY IVEEE BEEEEEEEEN WAITINGGGGGG SOOOOOOOO LOOOOONGGGGG
In Canada we call them blinkers or signals
The swimming suit depends on the region. Here in Perth we call them bathers.
You should add a Scottish person because Scottish person say quite different then other of The UK
Band-aid is an example of a generalized trademark. We also use band-aid in the US.
It is the typical generalization here in America
Emma and Petra look funny today.
Aussie: we dont say soft drinks.. we call them cool drinks
In Australia we say g banger instead of a thong 😂
Makes sense for Australia
Where do u live to say g banger
Well I've always just called them either knickers or a G-string.
U gotta be a high end bogan to call it a g-banger
In Australia the underwear thong is called g-string if I am correct
Why did the Aussie guy say that a blinker was an indicator.
Because it’s called an indicator for us. Lol
@@j3n1ne I'm from Australia and I have never heard it called an indicator by any Australian.
SBCD
You don’t live in every state of Australia though, do you? Where I live, they call it that.
@@j3n1ne You're right I didnt even think of that.
SBCD well I mean considering it is literally called an indicator, I find it quite strange that you’ve never heard it
I live in the US I call it soda but I have heard pop, soda pop, and coke (coke is only really used down south). The state I live in (Illinois) primarily uses "pop" but for some reason lots of my friends and my family use soda so yeah.
Please make ghost pepper noodles challenge.. Please please 😊
For clarification( from an Aussie, see of any others than I will edit this):
We don't use togs, we use cozzies/swimmers
We use bum bag not fanny pack
Indicator is partially true, we also use blinker
Thongs refers to the footwear, thong refers to the underwear
Hello there, im malaysian. I love your youtube channel
In America we call it soda in general but specifically in Western Pennsylvanian dialect we say pop.
I live in australa and we call them bathers😞
Basically if your country's weather / culture means you wear a certain piece of clothing a lot, you have to have a special word for it. Canada - special word for hat that keeps you warm. Australia - special words for beachwear.
Canadian here: turn signal, not “indicator”
USAer here👋🏽
- fanny pack (never actually new why...but thanks for explaining...)
- where i am, it's still a beanie even with a pom pom on it
- flip-flops
- where i am, we say blinker
- band-aid
- swimsuit
- a sick day
- where i am, we say soda, but I've heard it said pop and soda pop as well
I’m Canadian.
And at the end it sounds like she said a swear word when she said thank you for watching the forking tomatoes
I, Canadian, call the “indicator” the “turn signal”. Never would use indictor
I call it a blinker, and I’m from America
American California ( People talk different in the south)
1) Fanny Pack
2) Beanie
3) Slippers/ Sandals / Flip - Flops
4) Blinker/ Signal (Most people say blinker but we wouldn't say "blink right" instead we say "signal right")
5) Skipped (Really just depends on the accent)
6) Bathing Suit/ Swim Suit/ Bikini if 2 piece
7) " I missed work/ I was sick"
8) Soda, we understand soft drink but you only see that written on a restaurant menu and most people just say Soda.
From where I'm from we call it soda and pop spots either way for me
America ahhhhhhhh its a blinker wtf is an indicator
America again plaster is what goes on your wall
SODA
Yah I was think that to like plaster does go on a wall
yesss same
I live in Canada and all the Canadian things made sense
It's called Blinkers in America English 😂
In North Carolina we use Turn Signals.
I can't speak for my state because I live on a reservation and I rarely talk to non-native Americans lol so we usually say "turn on your turn signal." or "use your blinker."
Most of these differences we see in the various different countries are also variants within the UK itself, each different region has a lot of different ways of saying things, and its usually from these different regions in the past who would influence the various different colonies.
An example from this video is the soft drinks being said mostly in the middle and south of the UK, with more northern parts saying pop, and given it was mostly northerners who influenced Canada, it explains why they use pop. The south of the UK influences Australia and the US more so they would use soft drinks.
I love watching these but am always hoping for someone from New Zealand. It would be mean as if youse could have a video with a kiwi in it.
In Australia we have different ways of saying The things u wear to the pool or beach
Bathers, Swimmers, Togs, Bathing suit, Swimsuit and Bikinee lol
This Australian guy is getting everything wrong
yea like it's a g-string not a thong
It's because our country is massive, and even slang is relatively regional, like someone from Perth uses different words to someone from Melbourne.
M Tech yeah u wouldn’t say it’s ‘regional’ I mean it’s mostly the same except for people within and out that call it different shit, but not specifically
Im from Canada and I never call my winter hat a touque and I never heard any canadians call a singal light an indicator . Im from Nova Scotia so maybe those words are used in the western part of our great country !
Aye
Yeah, I'm Australian and I called what you swim in bathers, untill I moved to QLD and now I call em togs.
Malaysian call snow cap
This really remind me of the anak tudung snow cap lol
I call beanie n I'm malaysian
@@ainunnajihah549 same! Sebab kalau panggil snow cap confirm terfikir anak tudung huhu
I'm an Australian and where I'm from, we call then bathers
3:40 um aussies say blinker😂
Noahinglis111 nah Queenslanders say indicator depends were you are
I recall fanny packs from the later 1980s. They seemed popular, but not generally fashionable. People who felt they were practical, others a bother, and eventually a marker of nerdiness. I never wore one for a combination of all those reason. I was a traditionalist. I briefly used a leather belt pouch that formerly held two clips for a Lee-Enfield rifle.
Mate this Aussie says so many weird things that I’ve never said before (I’m Australian)
We call the indicator a blinker (USA)
No aussie calls it a fanny pack it's a bum bag e veryday of the week
In Southern America all soda is called Coke, a pop is a punishment. 😂
10:30
1) hasitasi (has = belly; tasi is short for táska meaning pounch)
2) (kötött) sapka (knitted cap)
3) flipflop/tanga(papucs)
4) index/irányjelző (first one is used in everyday speech, second one is official; irány = direction; jel = sign/signal/mark -> jelző marker)
5) fürdőruha (bathing clothes/dress)
6) betegszabi/szabadság (beteg = sick/ill; szabi is short for szabadság and is literally a 'day off' or freedom or liberty)
7) (szénsavas) üdítő (szénsav = carbonic acid; üdít = refresh)
Please get a New Zealander for the next one (and a proper on not one who doesn’t know what their talking about) it would probably be best to get a Maori guy cause some of the basic white girl kiwis try really hard to speak like the Americans
Get a Scottish person 🏴
Chelsey_ Champion we should get the whole English speaking crew
In America, plaster is what you repair drywall with.
We say thong, but it sort of looks like a thong for your foot😂🤷♀️😂
The Aussie missed true ocker "working class" slang. Thongs is the normal term for flip-flops, in ocker they are called Pluggers where a thong is a g-string, indicators are also blinkers, the togs/cossies are a generic term the Lycra swimming cossies are Budgie-Smugglers because they look like your smuggling a budgerigar bird below the belt if ur male.
🏴I would say skive instead of sickie
That Person That’s for when you are not actually sick
That’s what I said, it’s not the Australian one I’m talking about
Skiving is when you just don’t go to school for no good reason, but what they are talking about is when you take an honest day off
I’m referring to when Ashley said that to take a day of work when your not Ill is a sickie, I am not referring to actually being ill and taking the day off
8:50 i usually use air(water) gas .. (air gas) or soda
