    Sophia always sounds so relaxed and sometimes she sounds like a child. Not being mean. I think it's charming and makes her all the more lovely. It's obvious from her explanations and answers that she's an effective and very intelligent English teacher.

    I don't hear too many Aussies use the word bog for toilet (I've heard a few) but bog roll to mean toilet paper is definitely used. Fries are used in Australia but only for the McDonald's style thin cuts. Wedges and chips are different. The word thong traditionally refers to the leather strap so that's the connecting part of why the term is used for the flip-flop or g-string.

    In the US we use “till” also… as it refers specifically to the drawer or box where the cash is stored. Technically the “cash register” is the device on the top that well ..registers the cash transactions.

    Oder generations in North America before the 90s used the word thongs to call flip-flops, however service station and filling station can also be used in North America.

    America has three different words for "sneakers", depending on region. In the West Coast, more people say "sneakers". In the Mid-west, maybe even on the East Coast, people might call them "gym shoes". And from my family in the South, they always called them "tennis shoes", but that could be because I'm referring to my elder relatives.

    To be honest, I think sneakers is a colloquial thing. I know what sneakers are, but I would never say them when referring to those shoes. I would say "tennis shoes"

    Fun video! I know all of these because I’ve seen similar videos on World Friends. I’ve heard of bog as in toilet, some people may either call toilet paper 🧻 as bog roll.

    • @thevannmann
      @thevannmann Год назад

      Bog roll is used in Australia as a slang for toilet paper. Dunny, on the other hand, is kind of an older term that originated to mean the outhouse so not many younger people use it. It's usually just the toilet(s), restroom or loo. Bathroom may also be used but that generally refers to the actual room where we bathe or take a shower.

    I didn't really understand what the Australian means with crisps and chips? Do the words mean the same in Australia?

    • @FionaEm
      @FionaEm 11 месяцев назад

      Brits say 'crisps' for potato chips in packets, and 'chips' for the hot ones. In Australia we use the word chips for the ones in packets as well as the hot ones. You do also see fries, but that's usually in cafès and restaurants.

    I'm American. To be fair, some people do say thongs to describe flip flops. That's what I heard growing up.

    • @thevannmann
      @thevannmann Год назад

      The word thong historically referred to the leather strap which is why it's used for the flip-flop or g-string. The "strap" is the connecting bit.
