You should have mentioned she is from which part of India because there are so many different states in India. Our language, culture, food, looks and everything is different from one to another 😊😊 We don't say napkin in our state, we call it diaper 😊 We call it Gluestick, not gum 😅
Lol malaysian teenagers nowadays use "fly" as skip classes or sometimes "bounce" 😂 Abuden usually use among chinese culture but when we mix culture we say "Ya la", "well duh, obviously" and "of course la" or activity that you're doing + la. Man malaysia like simpleness 😂 Edit: Or nowadays does this and it's absolutely common. For example, "Are you watching a movie?". Answers "No la, i'm swimming" 😂
@Ee-Lynn Loong : Maybe because it's so modern that most malays la especially uses it and say for example "Yo guys, let's go fly" or "Let's fly" Edit: Or maybe because when chinese people among themself, they won't understand it or indians. Except malays but actually nowadays people start to use it 😂
@Ee-Lynn Loong Malaysians change a lot of words. Examples: Gentle lah: really?/ are you being serious? Gamble: like when someone does something that embarass other I think?? Fly: skip classes "Aku fly doh waktu math" Gangbang: (......)
In America we also use the term “playing hooky” to describe when somebody is skipping class. Also, we use the phrase “put a pin in it” to hold onto a thought for later discussion.
It's definitely an older phrase and kids now probably wouldn't use it. They'd just say 'skip' or 'cut' class. 'Cut' was by far the most popular in my school days. NJ class of '03
As a malaysian, I used to work in a company as an accounting clerk. They did use KIV in excel stand up for any documents or cheque that need to be review.
What we say in Ireland 🇮🇪 Gimme a lift Nappy Pepper Skipped class Diarrhea Glue stick Onesi/Jamas/Pajamas (I don’t know this one) Changing rooms What do ya think
Heh. Amercan here. When we don't go to class, in my area at least, we call it 'cutting class.' Pyjama is how I always learned to spell it, but I always got yelled at in school and told to spell it pajama, so I guess we can spell it either or? When stating the obvious, it's always been 'No shit, Sherlock' or 'Thank you, Einstein,' or 'Thanks, Captain Obvious.' Love these videos!
Wowzers, you Americans and British are really... get-to-the-point rude. (No offense though) I usually just say “WOW I never knew that!!” (With sarcasm dripping in my voice) And I’m an Aussie. Not everyone says that.
@@notcaaaramels Ok well being an American and knowing other Americans from all over most would not say something that rude unless they knew the person well and knew they appreciated that type of humour or they just wanted to be an ass. I personally would say and others I know something like the girl from India would say like "of course" or "yeah" in kind of an elongated it confused tone like she did. But if it's someone you can joke with usually we'll sarcastically say "no" or " no really" extremely sarcastically and exaggerated. Also our spelling of things really just depends on the person. Some people were taught by older teachers that used strict and older English hence why I use the "u" in a lot of my words like favourite and humour but not many other British spellings. Although I do also spell it pyjamas, but I usually just say sleep clothes. Jammies or nighties which I say sometimes indicate like a matching set type of sleep clothing.
@@sarveshsethuraman2374 In North America too? Anyway, I hate it when people get the brand name mixed up with the actual name of the item. It's like how Americans call tissues Kleenex, and how they call skips Dumpsters.
(Malaysian) We called that glue stick still, Nelvin. Gum is mostly the liquid ones. Any solid "gum" is glue stick. Btw, I love this. Glad that you're keeping this series.
Oh I missed this comment! Yeah I know that, I couldn't find a proper, commercially usable picture of gum - and still make it obvious to the girls what the item is. XD Thanks for clarifying! - Nelvin
Skipping class in the US is occasionally called "playing hooky", though it's more something one'd hear their grandparents say rather than something one'd actually be caught dead saying
IɴSɪmpʟeTermsJordaɴ In my experience in the South West US, we pretty much exclusively say “cutting class”, and “playing hooking” always means skipping the whole day of school, usually a decision backed by the parents, and done on special occasion (also used primarily used for kids before high school).
Interesting video. I love videos English variations :) 1) I used the word fetch like nelvin described. 2) Indian is Asian Nelvin XD 3) I use skip class too 4) About loose motion I never heard it. But in Malaysia's medical school we sometimes use the term loose stool to describe diarrhoea. 5) Gam is a Malay word actually. 6) I seriously thought everyone knows what KIV is. In Malaysia we keep using that and I thought it's because the British use the words back then. I'm shocked Ashley!!! haha. I'm glad to know this truth.
So happy to see an Indian in this video. Thanks so much. But I'm expecting more videos from you like this. Maybe with, Indian, African, UK, Malaysian. Cause African English have many difference in English.
This is American English: 1. Get a ride 2. diaper 3. pepper, but we like to specify 4. skipped 5. diarrhea 6. glue stick 7. pajamas/pj's 8. to think about/to sleep on it/ to mull it over 9. changing/fitting room, it's interchangeable 10. standard British+no duh/oh really. I say "are you sure?", but i'm sarcastic
It's fascinating how normal our version of English sounds like to us, but sounds weird to others. Like I started doubting if my English is correct or not.... it's fascinating how English has evolved. I love these type of stuff. Please do more of these videos.
In American English, for KIV, you could say "put a pin in it" (like the visual of pinning it to a cork board), meaning you'll come back to it later. You could also say "table the discussion/conversation"
9:15 in Spain we say «probadores», which is the literal translation of «trial rooms»; and we also say 3:07 «"saltar(se)" una clase», which does mean «skip (yourself) a class».

In America we would call that yellow pepper a yellow bell pepper. There's yellow, red, and green bell peppers. You typically use green bell peppers on pizzas and sub/hoagie sandwiches. Yellow and red, are usually cooked for Stir Fry or Asian foods. But you can just eat all of them raw as finger foods like carrots and celery.
Fetch in America is usually referring to a game you play with your dog. Where you throw something and they go "fetch it" and bring it back to you for another throw.
Napkin used to be used in Australia for the cloth item used to wrap your babies nether regions in. Bunk off equivalent in AUS, is to Wag. And diahorrea is the trots.
In Malaysia its hard to say since we have so many variation of English depending on how your are brought up, what was your first language and what school you were in like Chinese School,Malay School, International School or Private School
I say that too! But KIV refers more to in situations where there is an actual list (like an excel file at work), and you need to mark it for others to know of a decision related to it. :D Thanks for watching! :)
A more prickly work in the UK for the last one would just be to respond "never" in a sarcastic tone, or even just "no" - but it depends on what was said to start with what you choose, it wouldn't necessarily work perfectly all the time.
I live in the U.S. and I'd say "Can you give me a ride?" But if you're asking someone if they need a ride then you could say "Need a lift" although where I live it's not common.
Only thing different from Mass is that if the PJ is all one piece of clothing finished by a zipper it's a one-sie a comfortable pair of pants is called PJ's pajamas.
American answers round the my neck of the woods (Western New York state, near Canada): 1.

Gum was very commonly used in the UK at some time, which is why things get gummed up. But it's a kind of loose syrupy adhesive. A pritt stick would never have been called gum.
I guess cultures will be more or less specific with food names depending on whether the foods are native in the country a lot; for example the British are not particular how they describe peppers of any kind, but they will go to town on stodgy potato snacks like chips, crisps, fries or wedges.
1- Give me a lift? 2- Nappy 3- Capsicum 4- Wagged class/school 5- Have the shits/Diarrhea 6- Glue 7- PJ's 8- TBC 9- Change rooms 10- Obviously; I'm sure there's some Aus term for it, just don't remember because I personally say Obviously. -Australia
2:17 “And then you’re just like ‘everything is pepper’ Well I can think of lots of things that aren’t pepper 🤔 And also 2:42 I’m British and i’ve never said ‘i bunked off’ and i actually thought only Americans say that 😂 is it just me or do Brits actually say that? I normally say ‘skipped’ like the Malaysian guy. 3:34 I thought she said “I’m sky diving today” 😂😂
1. Give a drop or ride or lift 2. Pampers 3. Green Pepper (all colors) 4. Jumped or refused to attend class 5. Purge or if you go to a posh school its diarrhea 6. Gum, glue if it’s really really strong 7. Onesies 8. To be determined or considered 9. Changing rooms 10. Duh or we answer in really strong offensive sarcasm or we say the opposite most unrealistic thing in the most obviously and painfully sarcastic way
What I still find interesting to this day is that as from California our ancestors are from places like Germany and as of our language we say a lot of British words. But I wonder if it’s cause our family comes from Pennsylvania the generation before me
1. Give me a ride or pick me up 2. Diaper 3. Yellow pepper 4. Played hooky. Or cut class. 5. Diarrhea. Or “The Shits” 6. Glue stick 7. Onsie, pajamas, jammies, PJ’s 8. TBD - “To be determined” 9. Fitting room 10. My personal favorite is, “Thanks, Captain Obvious.” I’m American, from Greater Chicagoland.
I’m from the west end of Scotland in a small town outside of Glasgow and for ‘skipping class’ we would mostly say either ‘patching class’ or ‘dogging class’
When someone says the obvious I tend to say “nah dip” because when I was brought up, we were always told not to say swear words and we ended up saying dip instead of sh*t
In French: 1 - Venir me chercher (You could translate by "Take me home") 2- Diaper = Couche 3 - Pepper = Poivron (But the other pepper (the spice) is called "poivre") 4 - I bunked my class = "J'ai séché les cours" 5 - Dirrhoea - Diarrhée (Or a vulgar word "chiasse") 6 - Glue stick = Bâton de colle. Bâton means "stick" and Colle means "glue" so....it's just in reverse ;) 7 - Pyjamas = Pyjamas (how orginial it is!!!) 8- Well....i don't know. Or maybe you could say "Affaire à suivre" wich means "Business has to be continued". 9- Changing rooms = Cabine d'essayage (Try cabin) 10 - No shit, Sherlock (lol I love it) = ....Well, there are too much ways to say that in French....the recurrent one would be "Toi...Tu a oublié d'être con" wich means "You....you forgot to be dumb"
If anyone wants the American English variations since they aren’t in the video, then here: 1 - Get a ride or being picked up, though you can understand getting a lift 2 - Diaper 3 - Pepper (basically the same explanation as the British English) 4 - Skipping Class or Playing Hooky 5 - Diarrhea 6 - Glue, or a Glue Stick 7 - Onesie (if it’s a one-piece), Pajamas, or PJs 8 - TBD (To be determined/decided), or undecided 9 - Changing Rooms or Fitting Rooms (you can say either) 10 - Same as the British English
Good video. interesting to hear different ways of saying different phrases or objects. Should do more like this. I've seen in UK that in department stores, like M&S, they use Fitting Rooms, maybe to accommodate those who aren't english, changing rooms is what i have heard more often used.
Most of us Malaysians would actually call "diapers" as "Pampers", since that's the most famous brand. We also mostly call any kind of instant noodles "Maggi" for this reason too, and any chocolate malt drink as "Milo".
In America, those pajamas/onesies are called long-johns if they end at the ankle. But if they have feet, they are called footy-pajamas/pjs, or Dr. Dentons! (google "Dr. Dentons" the vintage posters are super funny!)
American (for me, a Californian): ·Give a ride ·Diaper ·Bell pepper ·Skipped/Ditched class ·Diarrhea ·Glue stick ·Pajamas/Onesie ·To be determined (TBD) ·Fitting/Changing room · *For the stating the obvious, it's really anything but you gotta be overly sarcastic
Skipping class made me remember an upsr (primary 6 school Nationwide) question that you need to write a speech using term given. One of them is playing truant which mean skipping class. Almost all the my friend that I made never knew what that phrase is.
I'm om India, and I call i diaper. And I'm petty sure we use gluestick too. Gum is used for glue and even gum is used less than fevicol. Common in India for glue- fevicol for gluesick- fevistick. Though those are due to the mass production of the Mr.Fevi brand glue/gluestick which are named that way.
2:46 In Polish it is "kiblować" what means "toileting" (?). Kibel is insultingly "toilet" in Polish. Or more politely: "nie zdać do następnej klasy" what means "not pass to the next class/grade"
I love the videos from Malaysia! Here in Lower Saxony (Germany) our territories were also technically British (House of Hanover), the Kings of Hanover even ruled over British Malaya 1826-1837)
1. Can u give me a ride?2. Nappy 3. Capsicum 4. Wagged 5. Diarrhoea/got the shits 6. Gluestick 7. PJs, jammies 8. Tbc- to be confirmed 9. Fitting rooms/changing rooms 10. Duh/ obviously (What some say in NZ)
Actually in India we're mixing both British English and American English but we always spell it how the UK do.
I don't, probably because I like to rebel

Fly: skip classes "Aku fly doh waktu math"
Gangbang: (......)
We ditch
I either use ditch class, ponteng or skip class.
Makes fun of him being Americanized, literally two seconds later, "what do you call Capsicum?" "Pepper." "like the american bell pepper?" "Umm yeah"
I am an indian and I have never heard anyone say napkin for a nappy.
Yeah true that... We generally use diapers.
I think we also use pamper and a diaper
I am also Indian , i have heard napkin , diaper and Huggies
No shit Sherlock!
I think that Indians and British people both said napkins, but the British just shortened it to nappy.
Yeah, we say "KIV" a lot here in Malaysia... No matter which department/division we are, the term "KIV" is commonly used.
How many short form word that use in Malaysia?
In English KIV is a type of bible

Sean McCauley ah yes rural new jersey beautiful
I'd say someone either skipped class or ditched class. Ditched is easier for me to say though.
slightly annoyed I’m from American and I have never heard someone say that. But it might be the state I live in
I would use skip for when you just don't go to class, and playing hooky is specific for when you pretend to be sick
As a malaysian, I used to work in a company as an accounting clerk. They did use KIV in excel stand up for any documents or cheque that need to be review.

In America we would call that yellow pepper a yellow bell pepper. There's yellow, red, and green bell peppers.
You typically use green bell peppers on pizzas and sub/hoagie sandwiches. Yellow and red, are usually cooked for Stir Fry or Asian foods. But you can just eat all of them raw as finger foods like carrots and celery.
I say that I skipped or I played hooky (that’s a pretty old term in comparison but I still use it)
Fetch in America is usually referring to a game you play with your dog. Where you throw something and they go "fetch it" and bring it back to you for another throw.
In Sri Lanka also we're using the word gum for glue but I thought it's a sinhalese word before
thenk ju por comment i em fram the Englend i em englendian and luvs gum to ate
Napkin used to be used in Australia for the cloth item used to wrap your babies nether regions in.
Bunk off equivalent in AUS, is to Wag. And diahorrea is the trots.
American. Ditch class. Tbd. To be determined. No duh or thanks captain obvious
i just roll my eyes and say no shit

In Malaysia its hard to say since we have so many variation of English depending on how your are brought up, what was your first language and what school you were in like Chinese School,Malay School, International School or Private School
in American you'll say "can you take me home" or Hitchhiking depends

I'm from Malaysia and I wouldn't say KIV, I would say "See how", like I'm going to see how it goes.
I say that too! But KIV refers more to in situations where there is an actual list (like an excel file at work), and you need to mark it for others to know of a decision related to it. :D
Thanks for watching! :)
I don't use any short form like this maybe my English still poor 😂😭
Like Sunw, asap, RSVP, those I know now😂😂
Well as malaysian myself, I assure u, we do use KIV alot
As Malaysian..we usually said KIV..
A more prickly work in the UK for the last one would just be to respond "never" in a sarcastic tone, or even just "no" - but it depends on what was said to start with what you choose, it wouldn't necessarily work perfectly all the time.
Yup. KIV. Definitely.
I live in the U.S. and I'd say "Can you give me a ride?" But if you're asking someone if they need a ride then you could say "Need a lift" although where I live it's not common.
American from Virginia:
#1 can I get a ride.
#2 diaper
#3 bell pepper
#4 skipped
#5 diarrhea
#6 glue
#7 pajamas or pjs
Only thing different from Mass is that if the PJ is all one piece of clothing finished by a zipper it's a one-sie a comfortable pair of pants is called PJ's pajamas.
We call #3 paprika where i live.

Gum was very commonly used in the UK at some time, which is why things get gummed up. But it's a kind of loose syrupy adhesive. A pritt stick would never have been called gum.
No sadhana you are wrong we indian dont call napkin to a baby diaper we call diaper and nappy pad both not a napkin obviously.
In Some parts of South we call it a napkin.. so you can't just go bash some people saying they're wrong if you don't know fully about it
Koushik Das there are over 100 different English versions in India so....
In Orcadian which is a group of islands north of Scotland we say not feeling well as “feeling peely walie”
0:49 is it just me or there’s something on Nelvin’s chest 😂 aka hickey
I guess cultures will be more or less specific with food names depending on whether the foods are native in the country a lot; for example the British are not particular how they describe peppers of any kind, but they will go to town on stodgy potato snacks like chips, crisps, fries or wedges.
Do more with Sadhna.,
1- Give me a lift?
2- Nappy
3- Capsicum
4- Wagged class/school
5- Have the shits/Diarrhea
6- Glue
7- PJ's
8- TBC
9- Change rooms
10- Obviously; I'm sure there's some Aus term for it, just don't remember because I personally say Obviously.
-Australia
2:17 “And then you’re just like ‘everything is pepper’
Well I can think of lots of things that aren’t pepper 🤔
And also 2:42 I’m British and i’ve never said ‘i bunked off’ and i actually thought only Americans say that 😂 is it just me or do Brits actually say that? I normally say ‘skipped’ like the Malaysian guy.
3:34 I thought she said “I’m sky diving today” 😂😂
I was born in U.S. and say I skip class...
Shooshy Wolf ikr!
@@shooshywolf same
I'm not sure if it's used in other English countries as well, but in the US, we sometimes say "play hooky" for skipping class.
NE Indian Called It Huggies 😂😂
Hey we here in rajisthan do that too😂😂
@@sayoneesharma6810 Haha Give me a 10 🙌
Its like saying Xerox for photocopy, its the company name not the actual term
Huggies is a diaper brand.
its like saying Colgate in place of Tooth paste and Surf in place of washing powder, which is common in many Indians.
1. Give a drop or ride or lift
2. Pampers
3. Green Pepper (all colors)
4. Jumped or refused to attend class
5. Purge or if you go to a posh school its diarrhea
6. Gum, glue if it’s really really strong
7. Onesies
8. To be determined or considered
9. Changing rooms
10. Duh or we answer in really strong offensive sarcasm or we say the opposite most unrealistic thing in the most obviously and painfully sarcastic way
"Pyjamas" isn't English. It's a Hindi word.
What I still find interesting to this day is that as from California our ancestors are from places like Germany and as of our language we say a lot of British words. But I wonder if it’s cause our family comes from Pennsylvania the generation before me
1. Give me a ride or pick me up
2. Diaper
3. Yellow pepper
4. Played hooky. Or cut class.
5. Diarrhea. Or “The Shits”
6. Glue stick
7. Onsie, pajamas, jammies, PJ’s
8. TBD - “To be determined”
9. Fitting room
10. My personal favorite is, “Thanks, Captain Obvious.”
I’m American, from Greater Chicagoland.
Canada: skipped school when you don’t go to class. TBD - to be determined
I’m from the west end of Scotland in a small town outside of Glasgow and for ‘skipping class’ we would mostly say either ‘patching class’ or ‘dogging class’
I’m curious about what they call fire alarm pull/push stations in your countries! I think in England they call it a ‘Call-point’.
i’m from england and i say either skive off or wag off (skive off is from my school friends and wag off i picked up from my out of school friends)
When someone says the obvious I tend to say “nah dip” because when I was brought up, we were always told not to say swear words and we ended up saying dip instead of sh*t
Actually one of the first "comercial" adhesives was "Gum Arabic" .....and many types of glue (especially for sealing envelopes ) is considered "gum"
I'm part British and I've never heard skived
Also I use fitting rooms
Changing room is for Phys Ed
I'm English I would "skive work/school"
In British English keeping something for future consideration is "Keeping on the back burner"
Here in the good old USA we say playing hooky or skip class playing hooky is usually used for just skipping the entire school day
The term for american students is to "Cut class" The seal on an envelope is called a "gummed flap" We would call your "onesie"
a "blanket sleeper".
What happened to the other ones like the American (US/Canadian) and Australian English
In French:
1 - Venir me chercher (You could translate by "Take me home")
2- Diaper = Couche
3 - Pepper = Poivron (But the other pepper (the spice) is called "poivre")
4 - I bunked my class = "J'ai séché les cours"
5 - Dirrhoea - Diarrhée (Or a vulgar word "chiasse")
6 - Glue stick = Bâton de colle. Bâton means "stick" and Colle means "glue" so....it's just in reverse ;)
7 - Pyjamas = Pyjamas (how orginial it is!!!)
8- Well....i don't know. Or maybe you could say "Affaire à suivre" wich means "Business has to be continued".
9- Changing rooms = Cabine d'essayage (Try cabin)
10 - No shit, Sherlock (lol I love it) = ....Well, there are too much ways to say that in French....the recurrent one would be "Toi...Tu a oublié d'être con" wich means "You....you forgot to be dumb"
If anyone wants the American English variations since they aren’t in the video, then here:
1 - Get a ride or being picked up, though you can understand getting a lift
2 - Diaper
3 - Pepper (basically the same explanation as the British English)
4 - Skipping Class or Playing Hooky
5 - Diarrhea
6 - Glue, or a Glue Stick
7 - Onesie (if it’s a one-piece), Pajamas, or PJs
8 - TBD (To be determined/decided), or undecided
9 - Changing Rooms or Fitting Rooms (you can say either)
10 - Same as the British English
Good video. interesting to hear different ways of saying different phrases or objects. Should do more like this. I've seen in UK that in department stores, like M&S, they use Fitting Rooms, maybe to accommodate those who aren't english, changing rooms is what i have heard more often used.
For the first one an American would say, “can you pick me up?”
Most of us Malaysians would actually call "diapers" as "Pampers", since that's the most famous brand. We also mostly call any kind of instant noodles "Maggi" for this reason too, and any chocolate malt drink as "Milo".
Loose movement sounds so polite
well im from England but everyone in my school would say skip class instead of bunked class😬🤷🏻♀️
Actually that is glue-sticks; gum usually comes in a semi-liquid form, in bottles and tubes.
In America, those pajamas/onesies are called long-johns if they end at the ankle. But if they have feet, they are called footy-pajamas/pjs, or Dr. Dentons! (google "Dr. Dentons" the vintage posters are super funny!)
American (for me, a Californian):
·Give a ride
·Diaper
·Bell pepper
·Skipped/Ditched class
·Diarrhea
·Glue stick
·Pajamas/Onesie
·To be determined (TBD)
·Fitting/Changing room
· *For the stating the obvious, it's really anything but you gotta be overly sarcastic
Skipping class made me remember an upsr (primary 6 school Nationwide) question that you need to write a speech using term given. One of them is playing truant which mean skipping class. Almost all the my friend that I made never knew what that phrase is.
I'm om India, and I call i diaper.
And I'm petty sure we use gluestick too. Gum is used for glue and even gum is used less than fevicol.
Common in India
for glue- fevicol
for gluesick- fevistick.
Though those are due to the mass production of the Mr.Fevi brand glue/gluestick which are named that way.
I’m from the north of England so I don’t know if this is a northern thing but up here if someone misses class we call it ditching
2:46 In Polish it is "kiblować" what means "toileting" (?). Kibel is insultingly "toilet" in Polish.
Or more politely: "nie zdać do następnej klasy" what means "not pass to the next class/grade"
To prawda
I love the videos from Malaysia!
Here in Lower Saxony (Germany) our territories were also technically British (House of Hanover), the Kings of Hanover even ruled over British Malaya 1826-1837)
Thank you! Glad to know you like them and thanks for supporting us! Ich hoffe, dass du unsere Deutsche Videos auch magst! :)

In America, the only thing I can think of the “tbc/kiv” thing is “put a pin in it”
In British English we mostly say "Nah Den" when giving a response to someone stating the obvious.
Never heard that in my life but then I'm from north of Scotland so I don't know??
