This man is wearing a...
Woman: vest
Man: waistcoat
Me: hat.
I'd say Fedora
I said the same thing😂
I thought the same😂
SAME💀
Bullet proof vest but not so cool
us: vacationists
uk: holidaymaker
me: tourists?
The Tea that’s exactly what I was thinking
I was thinking that 😂

The Tea OMG IM FROM THE UK AS WELL AND I WAS SO CONFUSED. It’s TOURISTS 😂😂
Same
When they say “we say” but you’re sitting there like: “literally no one I know has ever said that”
Him: what do you call this?
Her: Drapes!

Same, same thing with hoagie.
Drapes are part of a curtain
Lol
Yeah, I honestly thought it was the other way around
3:20 “What’s this?”
Girl: couch
Boy: Sette
Me: sofa
*intense wheeze*
@CaPtIn KeNwAy so what if he is?
But sofa is incorrect. A couch has feet it stand on so there is space where something can roll under while a sofa is directly on the floor, there is no space between floor and sofa. Also sofas usually do not have arm rests, couches do.
I was thinking sofa as well 😂
Isn’t it
US: Couch
UK: Setee
Me: Sofa
I’m from the UK btw
I also live in the UK and I call it sofa lol .
I’m from the uk and I say sofa. I think that setee is more of a slang way of saying it
I say sofa I’m from uk cuz idk how to spell the uk sofa
I say couch either way but I'm from the uk
I'm from England and I say setee, sofa and couch....?😂
Her: Checking Account
Him: Current Account
Me: *BANK ACCOUNT*
HeyItsJoeyF there are different types of Bank Accounts
I would say credit card
Australian andI'd say Savings account even though its the silliest name
UK here and bank account 🤦♀️🤦♀️
same im new england usa
I’m American and I’ve always said curtains, I’ve never heard the word drapes until now lol
Same
My mom (Canadian; British parents) called them drapes. I'm suspicious that one may actually be backward...
@@StudeSteve62 it definitely isn't
@@StudeSteve62 Never heard of drapes, I'm British. I call it curtains.
yeah honestly I thought drapes aw as european thing
School with boys and girls what would you call that....
Me: A normal school
Joshua omg 😂
Joshua: that shouldn’t of made me laugh but it did.
@@blazeh actually, it's a nuke testing site.
It isnt normal in the UK we have all boy schools and all girl schools and both girl and boys schools are very uncommon
@@RuairiRooney In my area of the uk (North) its mainly just boys + girls schools.

This video is basically:
US: [word]
UK: hah [synonym]
Me: I use both...?
Even chunder?
Its all either both or you've never heard of any of the words before and call them something else
@@cristobal_rubilar07 yeah, my English comes from movies and books I've read (or listen so they are mixed up,but being that at school we learned mostly uk english and probably because I've read and watched in Uk english too, movies and books so 80% USA words and 19% Uk ones,and less then one percent from other english speaking places.
@Mr. Egg Man After the colony America began to use many replacements for words but mostly the British use synonyms like waistcoat it is a vest
I live in England and we use none of the American words
I’m british and I’ve never ever heard anyone say “Chunder”. Usually we say “Being sick” or vomiting :/
orbit💜
cheers same other descriptions are vulgar slang heave puke barf
I'm British too!!
Exactly
step aside..You Are Asian..
What is this?
Her: paper towel
Him: kitchen roll

Randolp Ascano Haha that’s exactly what I said 😂

If u look at the pic the kitchen roll is long, toilet roll is half a kitchen roll smh
Bog Roll...
me: napkins
UK: jabs
US: shots
Me: *vaccinated*
??? I was thinking the same

??? Injections
Here in Indonesia, we learn British English from school (our schools heavily uses Oxford or Cambridge-issued English textbook), but we also learn American English from Hollywood and American pop culture. So yeah, in the end we just mix up everything lol
I'm Indonesian but I more Similar American Accent then British Accent
Exactly dude..😌😁
I'm Indo and I speak Aussie english Lol
So it's like an Australian english? Lol
Yeah same in India.
apparently i was taught half of british english and american english
에리스elise same here, I’m confused
@@andrealua854 it's very dependant on the region. I've noticed a lot of the times I either use what they say interchangeably, sometimes agreeing with him, sometimes agreeing with her, or sometimes using something else entirely. I'm sure it just depends on where you grew up. I'm assuming this applies to most countries.
Me too
same.i get overwhelmed🤯
에리스elise Congratulations then you’ve learnt Australian English. Where we understand both American and English
USA: purse
UK: handbag
Me: *lAdY cRosSiNg ThE sTrEeT*
hey it cant be helped right? It's what you see
Me: a male money carrier wallet, female purse, anerican purse *BAG*

I would say lady crossing the road
Matthew Murnin 😂😂
Me, german speaking dude learning english for 8 years and realizing that I speak a fkin weird mixture of these dialects.
Ah...Sie sprechen kanadisch dann? 😁
Sorry if that's a word salad, I last took German in 1982...😜
Don't worry, it's literally the same thing in different fonts
Same as us Australians and Kiwis.
Same here, I am Indian and I have a mix of US, UK and pirate accent.
America: Why would you say Moscow?
UK: *Get out*
Soraia Muiambo I mean you wouldn’t pronounce COW as COE
@@carcinization Not in the UK, where it's *nutt* (as in "butt") -ella (whatever the manufacturers might wish!)
Ynysmitwr he was talking about americans
@@rydayiscool101 I mean, you wouldn't pronounce bow as bow...
Wait
Aliyah Naqvi that’s just how the company is pronounced. We say nut normally
*American: Couch
*British: Settee
*Rest of the world : SOFA
im a brit and I say sofa idk what he's on about
A small two cushion couch in America is typically called a loveseat especially if it comes as apart of a living room set with a larger couch/sofa, coffee table and end tables or any combo thereof
@@Idk-ve8zh I think he's proper posh so he says all kinds of thing weird. I only hear posh people saying BAG-uette, round my area we say BUH-guette.
I live in England and I have never called a sofa a settee
I'm English and say sofa sooo...
I’m American and some of these “American” terms I’ve never used or heard in my life. And for all of the ones that I don’t use I use the British term
DBHLL Productions same with uk
@@myylev It's probably just because of where she is from in America. America is so large so people even here say things differently. I actually called a lot of the things she did the same. Except carded I've only ever heard Id'd. Edit: Also I call drug stores Pharmacies too.
I agree. I use at least one third, to half of the British words
Exactly we def say ID’d
Gringo?
2:00
Him: HolidayMakers
Every normal Uk person: pretty sure they are called *Tourists?!*
I have heard vacationers before but tourists is the main denomination of what we call them in America. I was so confused
same here in america hhh
Every American too
Just bc u go on holiday doesn’t mean ur a tourist
Tourist is different, tourist, is people that are going on a tour and sightseeing, holiday maker is when people are on holiday
Not all of us say chunder in the UK
It's an Aussie word.
I don't think any of us do
Nobody says it.
You guys haven't done a tactical chunder before?
Yeah. We use the word vomiting or vomit.
Steuern is the German word for taxes. It's plural; the singular would be Steuer.
Wow, das ist verdammt traurig, dass ich mir gerade nicht zu 100% sicher war, ob es wirklich taxes heißt oder ob es dafür noch ein anderes Wort gibt.
Lime article?
you know whats funny? My last Name is steuer.
I felt so bad looking at the rising Steuern picture...
btw what does it have to do with the video
Since when do we call throwing up Chundering
I Know Right
It's Australian and they weren't invited to this discussion...
Jaize Gilbert since when do aussies call it chundering
@@Johnny-qu7fl since Men at Work said so ;-)
I’d normally just call it puking...
USA: Barf
Him: “We say Chunder”
Every UK person: No we don’t…. We say throwing up or Vomiting
Nope - Chunder is defo an Aussie/Kiwi thing from the 70's / 80's - I have not heard it in a long while (but then I have grown up and dont do that stuff any more)
That wonderful band 'Men at Work' used it ...
And he said:
I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Every UK person: Vomiting, throwing up AND PUKING
USA is like: puke, vomiting or throwing up-
I’ve never heard an English person say vomiting, unless they already speak American English. We say being sick or throwing up
Exactly I've never heard the word chunder in my life
US: paper tower, UK: kitchen roll. Me: toilet paper.
British me: tissue
it did look like toilet paper though which confused me.
Caleb Logan I thought it was toilet paper too
Toilet paper is the short version and softer
Same
Kids in college
British guy: Can you pass me a rubber?
American guy: IM GETTING SEXUALLY HARASSED
Hahaha
LoUl
In one of my classes in college a dude from Hong Kong asked for a rubber when we were doing math 😂😂 (he didn’t understand what it meant to us and then didn’t know what a condom was when we told him what it meant 😂)
LOL
Ahahaha that’s funny 👍🇬🇧
"What is this?"
America: Drapes
Britain: Curtains
Me: drapes? Its curtains!
Hannah M ikr
Wait
The Arminian was wrong I’ve never said drapes
Doth mother know you weareth her curtains
grapes
United States: Hoagie
United Kingdom: Baguette
Me: Sub?
yeah wtf? i hear people call it a hoagie once in a blue moon its usually called a sub
People In Pennsylvania usually say hoagie, I just say sub or sandwich
@@emerylsg hoagies are different than subs. It is a Philadelphia kind of thing. They use long, soft baguettes, with cold meats, leafy greens, tomatoes, and usually whiz/cheese.
Bro what are you talking about that’s food that’s all it is
the only time i’d say sub is if i was going to subway
Who else in america calls curtains, curtains because i do.
SoundMaster I was taught that curtains were lighter material and drapes were heavier. Basically, curtains diffuse light and drapes block it out completely.
@@wjspade wow you must be fun at parties.
SoundMaster what did he do wrong??
@@neonguts_ he has bin annoying me in my other comments on other videos like he is following me XD.
SoundMaster What other videos? I don’t recall ever having replied to you before this.
I would’ve recognized your Soundwave avatar; I’m a huge Transformers fan.
British: Preschool
American: Kindergarden
Me a person that lives in the UK: Nursery
Most places are called Nursery & Pre-School
Meaning that children under 3 are in Toddlers or Babies
Children over 3 are in Pre-School the room just before they go to School
Me as a German: Kindergarten
Yeah Americans just took the German word
British do not call it lee school
It’s still preschool in America (California ) you go to Kindergarten when you’re 5 through 6
They mean before nursery
"What's this guy doing?"
"A pumpkin."
I'd say it's after the pumpkin was done ;)
He must’ve gone too deep.

Did you got that profile picture in Zege
US: Couch
UK: Setee
Me that is Korean but can speak English: *Sofa.*
English say sofa as well don’t know why he said setee
I was expecting him to say sofa. I actually never heard someone saying setee.
Setee is like up north like Blackpool, I say sofa or couch depending on what side of the family I’m with (couch for Irish side, English is sofa)
Im german its sofa too
I say Setee
I might show up a bit late, but Steuern 1:46 (in that case) is German and means taxes
I'm American, and we also say Pharmacy and I've never heard of the word Hoagie
It's depends on where you're from, in Pennsylvania we call them hoagies (some other states do this too).
I‘m german and we say Apotheke
@ibesweetp2 po' boy.
I call them subs
They say "hoagie" only in the Northeastern states (New England). I think in Boston they say "hoagie".
Her: hoagie
Him: baguette
Me: SUBWAY FOOT LONG
Me: f r a n c e
A baguette is a piece of bread though...
I call it baguette and I'm from the US ;-;
Lol
@@eleanorhernandez6682 Yes and subway from the us
I’m from England and I have never heard the word “chunder” before😂😂
Also with the Moscow thing, we say “bow” as in “you bow to the queen” and then “bow” as in “hair bow” so yeah “cow” is pronounced like “bow” [🙇🏽♀️] but so is “bow” [🎀]
This is confusing but yeah😂😂
These people are weird, I’m from the USA never heard some of the things she said
Clearly you've never been to uni. Seriously it's an Aussie word that became popular in Britain when the soaps Neighbours and Home & Away started airing here in Britain.
Personally I use a variety of words for being sick: puking , throwing up, chundering, spewed, using God's big white telephone, Getting Commode hugging drunk, chucking ma hoop, etc, etc.
I am English 2 and have never heard of that word either
Ella Sophia
Nor stag do hen do or lilo 😂

I’ve actually never heard of chunder and I’m English

Only posh twats call it that mate
Harrild Boggir me neither
I have heard chunder but nobody says it
Yes I agree with you mate I just say I throw up or I was sick all over the place. 😩😵😨😝
American: shots
Brit: jabs
Me: *V A C C I N E*
Me (UK): She's getting a vaccination
shots XDDD
yeah I was expecting her to say like a vaccine or a flu shot
Upon further analyzation of American and British slang, both words don't make sense. We're need to come up with something other than "jab" or "shot".
Innoculation? Injection?
Mr Mickey 19 me: Autism
America: debris
Britian: debris
Me: bricks
Me: Broken tiles.
Thought it was roof pieces
I thought it was bark
I am British and I have literally never heard the word "chunder" in my entire life.
Also, "hoagie" is New Jersey specific.
They're "subs" here (Canada; major US chain called Subway so same there), or occasionally the term "hero" gets used...
Yeah. Born and raised in western U.S., I've always called them sub sandwiches
Chundering is alcohol induced vomiting, not too commonly used ig
Ikr
i’m from manchester and literally every used the word chunder or chundering
I’m American and I’ve always heard people say id’d and not carded.
Hayden Isaacs same
I think the point is that "carded" is used to some extent in certain regions of US, but never used in UK
ID’ed and carded are both used here in Texas.
I heard both
THANK YOU!!!!

I'm from Australia so I was comparing my answers to theirs. Then they said the snow isn't sticking or settling my immediate reaction was 'we don't get snow'
Same
I was like what else would snow do but fall down 🤔
I'm Australian as well but I say a mix of the things some british and others the American way
Shadow Pandora yeah, generally I find that true
I'm from Canada, at this moment I was trying to figure out what word they were trying to get, then I realized, oh I've never heard of either of those because I'm in Canada and the snow never melts when it hits the ground. NEVER!

I say both so... 🤷🏽♀️
I agree I know some people who say drapes but thats uncommon
Thankyou

As a Canadian I think it's fascinating how we not only use a mix of words from British and American English (as well as our own slang in some cases), but I've noticed a few things where I think "Those two words mean different things to me". For example in this video the American called it a bus and he called it a coach. Bus is a general term, but a coach bus is the kind with the comfy seats you would ride on for a longer trip. Another example, the American said college and he said University. Colleges and universities are completely different things in Canada. Colleges offer two year programs and grant diplomas, and universities offer four year programs and grant degrees. In another video, the American said test and he said exam. For me, a test is what you write during class time throughout the term. An exam is specifically scheduled outside of class time and written in the middle of and at the end of the term.
5:32 I'm American and I call them curtains. Who calls them drapes?
Someone from harry potter
Detective Eevee 124 I call them curtains too
I’m american

Is it just me or do anyone else say half of the words American and half British
Canadian? Me too, and yes, roughly half and half. But I'm from Newfoundland, and we've got some words of our own. Like if snow melts when it hits the ground, we say it's not pitching. We don't chunder, we woof. And a settee is a chesterfield. Taking attendance is calling the roll. Stag and stagette. English vest is a singlet. Jabs are needles. A baguette is a sub. Postal code. Lol
I say a few of them british even though i am american. Like curtains or tin foil
Pretty much yes
Yes I’m aussie

I thought that at first, but people only say it when buying alcohol. Not for anything else
Kotala Foxhound oh shoot. Even then, I don’t hear anyone say that. Maybe it’s a region thing. That’s interesting
Maybe it's a regional thing but here on the west coast in the US in regards to buying alcohol carded is pretty common.

Same, only ever heard of ID'd
As a Malaysian, I can relate this video with Malay🇲🇾-Indonesian🇮🇩 languages. Same words but different meaning.
The teddy bear 🧸 is sitting on....
Her: crib
Him: cot
Me: a chair
No Did you hear what he said
On the chair was an elephant
King Rim I would’ve said Rocking Chair but yeah 🤣
Us: vacationers
Uk: holidaymakers
Me: Tourists??
Hotel: trivago
Jungkookiesdad WTF is a trivago? I’ve literally never heard that word. My phone even says it’s misspelled.
PockASqueeno trivago is a German hotel searching website. In the ads they always say, hotel:trivago. A lot of people are saying this and it has become a thing people see a lot.
Army💜
😂😂
Hotel? TRIVAGO
i’m british but never heard of the word ‘chunder’
who tf says that
Phoebe sta123 I said vomiting or being sick. 😂
SuperGlued Crown ^yep. definitely being sick for me
Phoebe sta123 jack whitehall because he’s posh😂
The Aussies.
Everyone at university uses the word "chunder" in the UK haha
I have never heard someone say "settee". I call it a sofa. I'm from the Uk to.
this word was traditionally an indication of class. ''settee'' is working class, like calling your evening meal 'tea'.
Me too i use it all the time
Settee is used up north mostly
I love how he’s correcting what she’s saying “well it’s actually a...”
Ehmpty yeah rightly so because the way we say it is the right way, they changed our language slightly when we went over to America
I love how he gets pist when he hears her say "Cops"
We're American we don't give a ****
vi sutton no americans changed the language not British because England is country before USA so shut the hell up jk
LenXBGHD That’s what I said. Read what I said before you guess.
Pssss I think ur both British?
Pharmacy is an American thing too. I don’t know a lot of people here who say “drug store”
Skatey in canada we all say drug store lol
I usually call stores that have a pharmacy inside a drug store but not the pharmacy itself
I think most Americans are just slightly dumber than the average actual English person. No offence. America is a much younger nation.
MCMEME LOL why dumber?
They use to say drug store back then in America. But I guess now it’s a pharmacy.
Wtf ive never heard anybody say "carded" americans still say
We use drug store as well as pharmacy
Curtains are said more often than drapes
And also police and cops are said equally
Austin, I'm from the US and I agree with you.
1. I never heard anyone say carded before. I've always heard IDed.
2. I have always said pharmacy. I've never heard anyone say drug store.
3. I have always said curtains. So, do most people I know. I hardly hear anyone said drapes. Only people I hear say drapes are are snowbirds from up North.
4. Also, police and cops are use equally. Most people I know say both.
Fr
And the first 2 I say it like the guy.
We’re I’m from Ive never heard id’d it’s only carded here in Indiana
It probably depends on the area of the country you're in, I've always heard carded in new Hampshire and vermont.
i guess condoms are also used to erase mistakes too
LMFAOOOO
They avoid mistakes, but don't erase them.
The More You Know Unfortunately :(
@@Etelvinicius exactly
sofihahaha hah to bad my dad didnt erase this mistake
I'm British and I have NEVER EVER heard someone say the word chunder before
I'm American and I say curtains instead of drapes all the time. If anything I would've thought it was the other way around.
I say curtains for the bulky ones and drapes for the thin ones that go underneath or for summer. I'm neither American nor British 😂
Drapes is never said in the UK
Its the same here, although some people here also say Drapes.
@@user-cu8rl5pe1m Yes they do.
Froyo Time I THOUGHT THE SAME THING
US-shots
UK man-jabs
Me from the UK-Injections
Esther Harvest exactly! And I'm not even from the UK!
Me from India: vaccination
Injections here in Pakistan aswell
@@shanaia1643 also vaccination in The Netherlands
I just said needle
US: Kindergarten
British: “Playgroup”
Me, someone who lives in Britain: *Nursery*
I'm american and we'd honestly say "preschool" or "Pre-k." Kindergarten is the level above
I say nursery
I'm indian and we say kg
Kilogram
I'd (UK) go even a bit more old-fashioned - *Nursery School* :)
I'm from the US, but I have to point out a few things:
We don't usually say "carded" when asked for ID. I understand "ID'd".
5:38 - Sometimes also "Metro" (depends on nearest city)
7:41 - We use them both interchangeably (Cops has however, been more common, in modern-day US)
cop is actually an abbreviation of "constable on patrol" & comes from the UK. I dont' think you even have "constables" there do you?
What’s this?
Her: Couch
Him: Settee
Me: Sofa
Butt rest
correct
Wtf is a sette I say sofa
I'm from the us and I have never heard of being "Carded" i always say id'd
Paige Mona same
Carded is more old-fashioned I think. I always hear id’d now though
I'm from the UK and I've never heard of the word 'Chunder' before
I’m from the us and all I hear is carded
@@RealMike02 me neither
Us: vacationers
Uk: holiday maker
Me: tourists
Lol
That's what I said in my gead
Head
Same
I’m American and I’ve never heard of a “hoagie” and I’ve never called curtains “drapes”
Hoagie is a Pennsylvania thing.
@@rendan1351 that’s probably why I’ve never heard of it, I live in California
US: Bus
UK: Coach
Me (UK): A bus. Like school bus. But if its a school trip then a coach... so...?
You can't be English with a name like that
Here in UK its still a coach. If it looks like a massive bus but its not a double decker its a coach
(From Canada) I’d say; Charter Bus, Transit Bus, Tour Bus, school Bus....basically Bus
Thermic wait if it’s double deckers then what is it
Public transport I'd say a bus but for 'busses' like that I'd call it a coach
Video: what’s she got on her face?
Me: A nOSE
Libra Potato LiPs
Summer sksksksksk ikr
Toaster Strudel lol
Me: achne?
being canadian is an awful lot of fun because we use both US & UK terms, as well as some of our own
I'm Canadian that is so true
I‘m german soooo.... das ist ein Kühlschrank
Same thing I'm also carded
yeah same but i'm from New Zealand
Same here in the Philippines
I have never heard anyone say “settee”
In North East England, we generally say settee
Sofa
Really its all i hear with British people i say couch or sofa lol
I thought settees were like short, bench - like couches with no back or arms.
Only old people
Her: "Barf?"
Me an intellectual: Perhaps Vomit?
Me an intellectual: Puking
@@stopplsok1816 Me a normal : depending on my company..I threw up I vomited I Heaved I Puked i barfed
lol I thought the same and I am not American
what about blowing chunks?
me: Regurgitation
