It would be fun to hear about even more differences like different regions in each country, between big cities and country life. And generational differences, like how kids, teens, adults, and seniors see things uniquely in each country.

    In Sweden, generally, if you have an appointment or even if you go visiting a friend and agree on a time, you arrive at that time, not early and not late. If you get to a friend's house for dinner 5 minutes early you stand in their garden or out on the street for 5 minutes before you knock on the their door.
    That made it very frustrating for me when I first moved to Australia... where if you call for a contractor they would say "Alright I'll see you on Monday" which could be any time on Monday from early morning to late afternoon. Or at work if you have a team meeting at 10am, as the Swede I would be in the conference room at 10am exactly but then team mates would start dropping in like at ten past, quarter past, even half past sometimes. *gaah*

    When I was in Ireland, my uncle, apprenticed as an engineer in Germany (but working as a banker) always asked, when there was an agreemernt to meet at a certain time, "Is that Irish time or Europe time?" Meaning do we meet on the dot (Europe), or anywhere from a half hour to maybe two hours after the agreed time (Irish time) Lo, the this uncle was showing me around Kerry I had to translate the waiter's accent for him. He marveled how ell I understood the thickest accents. I told him we had every kind of Irish accent on my Bronx NY block.. Like my mother, my uncle had a very mild Irish accent. This accent among the London relatives easily became an English accent (called Estuary at that time). I was told I had an Atlantic accent, could be Canadian or Anmerican or English in origin. I was was mistaken often enough for English but I think it was because I was staying with cousins and fell into a version of their accent.

      @ciaracaulfield 2 года назад +3

      Not true at all 🤨 My parents are in their late 50s and have always used pants only when referring to trousers. Just because wherever you're from in Ireland uses it as an alternative word for underwear, doesn't mean everyone here does. There's a decent amount of people that say pants meaning trousers and there's also a decent amount of people here that say pants meaning underwear. Neither is wrong. Stop misinforming people.
      But I do think that we've been influenced a good bit by American TV. I know myself that there's a few things I say that could only have come from watching American programmes, but I know that pants isn't one of them 😂 The only thing my mam watches on tv is RTE news or Dancing With the Stars (anyone else have to leave the room when Nicky Byrne is on because of the pure cringe way he presents?) And the only thing my dad watches is RTE news or the hurling or rugby matches .. so neither of them are being influenced by American TV 😂 And because I don't like spreading false info and you've planted a seed of doubt in me , I've even gone to the trouble of asking me mam has she ever used the word pants as underwear and she said "No, never. We always called it underwear or knickers, but I know some people now have started calling underwear pants". So, she's under the impression that using 'pants' as a word for 'underwear' is a more modern thing 😂 Just goes to show, not everyone says things the exact same way in Ireland. We all grew up in different homes and around different people. Say it whatever way you like and leave it at that.

      Ireland is the countries Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland. United Kingdom (UK) is the countries England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland. British Isles is the countries England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland. So the title make sense if the Irish man is from Republic of Ireland (Not in the UK,) Doesn't make sense if the Irish man is from Northern Ireland (In the UK.)

    One thing always amused me about brits on vacations in freakishly hot places. Usually they have a skin type so white you can't look at them without protection (sunglasses), apparently they never heard about sunscreen but for some reason they think it's okay to fry in direct sunshine for 12+ hours. Skin cancer rates in the UK should be off the charts but at least you can identify them from 200m away: 1st day looking at them directly will burn off your retina, day 2 till end of vacation they'll be glowing red like a boiled lobster.

I'm even fine with 0 or -1 if there's no wind, and I mean in a t-shirt. I'll put my jacket on in those temperatures if I'm going somewhere far or if there's any wind at all.

Scots in Scotland have this skill because they are used to having to soften their accents for visitors, but they usually will say it with a more neutral accent when you ask them to repeat, not as a habit or among themselves.
