多謝,明多了
UK: tick US: check
UK: autumn US: fall (autumn is used but mostly use Fall)
UK: post (verb) US: mail (but still called a post office as in US postal service)
UK: hire a car US: rent a car. (No one understands what it is meant by hiring a car, a taxi)
UK: timetable US: schedule (different pronunciation!)
UK: primary, secondary, and tertiary education US: elementary, secondary and higher education
I learnt English in HK before studying in the States. Americans are very generous with their ears; need not worry that your English doesn't exactly match the locals'.
好鍾意呢兩集，我們在香港長大的，學的多是英式，但原來生活上香港的英文都夾雜咗好多美式。
我鐘意美國多啲，生活節奏比較似香港。
其實啲英國人實明美式英語嫁，啲荷李活電影，英國大賣，啲美國歌星全世界都識
好喜歡這類型的題目，希望每隔一段時間再出新片吧！謝謝！👍🙏🏼
愈黎愈鍾意睇你地d片，我地遲d都過黎英國，我自己而家睇好多移民心理上問題或者少人提既資訊，睇你地又會涉及唔同資訊好生活化好舒服，繼續拍多d👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
"戴頭盔"🤣👍
Faye so cute.
In america, we use till also, but the till means the cash drawer. E.g. After the store closes, manager tells the cashier to count the till for the day.
同英國同事相處多左，先發現自己某啲用字/發音原來一直用緊美式，要搞大一輪，佢地先知我講乜，有啲少尷尬。
例如簡單既Cat 字，都要返屋企查番字典🤣 影片好實用呀。希望會再出多啲煩似既教學片 ：)
Very interesting indeed. I almost forgotten the UK lingo after being in the US for 30yrs. 👍
香港人講"士多" !! 😅😅
美國同加拿大有時叫" Washroom"
Apartment 在加拿大有時叫" Mansion" , 其實這是法文來的，應該讀" 駡 song", 不是讀 "Man son".
Globalization makes the different words interchangeable. Am and Br words have been often co-existing for ages.
Till = cashier 😮 ~ Encore please & thank u so much to both of you 👍😸
This video is extremley helpful. Now I finally understand my friend meant "college" when she kept referring to "uni".
聽阿菲講嘢好舒服你哋係 Sweet couple
very useful and thanks for your sharing
The term bathroom is used if you are at home or at someone’s house. The sign for “toilet” is restroom in a store, restaurant, gas station, etc. we say ginger snap instead ginger biscuit.
這個好實用的語文知識👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
好❤多謝🙏🏻 thank you very much❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks Faye and Stevo. I‘m looking forward to the 3rd❤
Moving socks good advice best of you both
I like the smiling of you couple, so healing
係美國住咗二十幾年，但係有時都會講咗英國英文都唔察覺，例如英國會叫 “Supermarket”, 美國人叫 “grocery store”. 英國會叫 “touch wood”, 美國人叫 “Knock on wood”.
香港曾經係英國殖民地，我比較習慣英式英文，但呢條片好有用，認識多啲美式英文
Thanks Faye n Stevo!
好鐘意睇美式及英式英文，可以了解到一些分別又可以學到英文
Hoover for vacuum cleaner is like Xerox machine for coping machine in the U.S. Also we say we are going to a doctor's office instead of going to a clinic
Yes im from HK when we first came to US over 30 years ago, we have problems understanding the American English and we are doubting what we’ve learned in school….. 😅
many differences in pronunciations too
there was a old documentery called 2 country separated by 1 language, it went deep into the language different between usa and queens english. it is very funny. we have fun with our uk friends too.
多謝分享, 兩集都學到好多嘢! 會唔會有機會開一集講吓D 生活用字, 例如剪髮的要求呢?
等我即刻睇返part1👍
哈哈…呢集令我諗起…stevo…爸爸嗰一集…👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Great info
下集影片介绍不同生字温習一下，謝謝。🥰🥰👍👍
美國人叫警察也用police. 事實上正式場合通常用police 而非cop.
電影叫cops多啲
多謝曬2位
我係香港本地薑 都係主要用stevo 英式英文生字多d 可能由細個開始習慣咗
Very useful! Thank you so much! 👍👍
越嚟越仲意你哋💕
Very useful 、多謝，拍多些這類片，很受用👍👍👍
Very interesting
Thanks for sharing. You guys are wonderful to watch. ❤️👍
goooooooood to thanks.. all the English...
Also call taxi as Hack in USA.
In US we say photos also.
Loo is very common, not care is formal or informal, not limited to use with your closed friend or not, everyone say that
I wouldn’t say loo to my boss though LOL 😂
In fact, "restroom" is more commonly used here in the US than "bathroom".
銀行Tiller嘛，有聽過呀。
Bank Teller, not tiller. Till means cash register in US
好實用呀👍👍
多謝兩位，
每次睇片聽到faye 笑聲心情都開心
好實用 ! 好實用 ! 好實用 !
British:canoe US: Kayak
British: torch US: flashlight
subway in British have a another meaning , an underground passage that allows people on foot to cross a busy road
Thank you Stevo and Faye, interesting topic
多謝分享，如果有機會可以教下髮型屋常用嘅英語thank you😉
Have you seen this video we did about going to the barber shop?
th-cam.com/video/XakfmnU3cyQ/w-d-xo.html
@@MovingSocks2.0 Oh! I overlooked the video. Thank you, it is really helpful.
Thanks.
Also, down town Vs center 😆
movies are also called motion pictures
請keep住呢個特質節目，之前嗰幾集英語講，我時不時都會重看
好有趣又學到野，邊睇邊估答案👍
非常有用，學到好多嘢🙌
Restroom is commonly used in a public place instead of bathroom.
我覺得都要睇埋喺英國咩地區，可能Steveo喺Greater London生活長大，多啲字可以interchange(或者好似阿Faye講咁樣MK咗嘅British🤣🤣🤣).
之前喺英格蘭西北部Lancashire讀書，啲人99%係會用番英國嘅字，如果你突然間彈個美式英文字出嚟佢哋都會明，但係會覺得你好怪。
好實用呀，多謝Stevo同Faye！
希望將來會有第三集♥️
😘👍👍好有用
Thanks for sharing 😘
Tea , coffee or me. As described by some profession.
you can do a video about USA vs UK words on clothing and pants, I know there are a lot differences in words, I get really confused
Hi, I’m a BBC but have spent lots of time working with adults and children from America.
Faye and Stevo covered many of the differences already but I have added some others.
UK: trousers US: pants
UK underwear terminology: pants (or boxers or slips) are generally male underwear, knickers are female underwear. Some people now call knickers “Panties”, which is more American.
UK: vest US: undershirt
In the UK we have t-shirts (male and female) and collared starch shirts (like you wear to an office, female version is a “blouse”).
UK: trainers US: sneakers
UK: rucksack US: backpack.
UK: bum bag US: fanny pack… in the UK a fanny is the slang/child term for a female’s nether region.
UK: torch US: flashlight
UK: nappy US: diaper
UK: baby’s dummy US: pacifier
UK: rubber US: eraser
UK: condom US: rubber
UK: jam US: jelly
UK: jelly US: Jello
UK: corn flour US: corn starch
UK: bicarbonate of soda US: baking soda
UK: plain flour US: all purpose flour.
UK: self raising flour is basically plain flour with baking POWDER (not soda!) already added.
Because the UK has more American influences than vice versa, the majority of British people (especially in and around London) tend to understand what the American word is.
I hope this helps!
Thanks for your sharing
Very good video 👍
Is Faye an Oxford alumni?
多D做這個系列的 VIDEO thanks
在英國嬰兒床一般稱baby cot， 在美國則叫baby crip
Crib
While you guys talked about “surgery”, I remember they call surgeons by Mr, not by Dr…. They say it was an English tradition that quite confused me before they told me.
好正 謝分享
好有用嘅簡單知識.
So funny ，very interesting. Thx ☺️
Cop is short for copper - to cop means to seize or catch
The TV series Peaky Blinders use the term copper a lot
Cab is short for taxicab
They called “washroom”/“restroom” in US, but not bathroom.
Useful, useful
What about Arcade?
“Restroom” 呢？
I saw you added an extra “p” to apartment. Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought it was spelt “apartment”. For toilet, I’ve also used “can” or “washroom” over bathroom
It's crazy how different UK and US railway terminology is, could fill an entire episode with just train terms. 😂
Just a few examples to illustrate:
UK: railway US: railroad
UK: brake van US: caboose
UK: bogies US: trucks
UK: trucks/wagons US: freight cars
20:23 ナイスアイデア👍✨

クリーパー出現に驚きながらもスマートに倒すさとみくんさすがです。
Car terms too:
US: hood UK: bonnet
US: trunk UK: boot
US: windshield UK: windscreen
US: station wagon UK: estate car
US: sedan UK: saloon
US: gasoline / gas UK: petrol
US: freeway UK: motorway
US: traffic circle UK: roundabout
US: overpass UK: flyover

Surgery = knife cutters. , , most doctors = Physicians
USA Apartment, UK Flat, Australia Unit.
Spectacles 讀書教過,之後都無接觸呢個生字,glasses太普遍
我記得香港以前用lavatory 。咁係邊度呢？ 可能已經obsolete 咗好耐
THANK YOU
請問Mobile 幾時讀mo包 又幾時讀mo bo?
知道了 原來就係英美發音既分別
It's very interesting and helpful for us to know more local language that we become confident to communicate with locals in our social life.
阿菲瘦咗又靚左，系咪最近做緊keep fit ? 🤗🤗🤗
多謝分享，唔駛就住就住講ar，直接講就得，唔駛咁多顧慮，haha
I was asking for utensils in a restaurant in Manchester but the waitress did not know what I meant…..later I found out that I should have asked for cutlery instead.
Till 真係未聽過, Bangs 個女教過我但原來比較American
去到美國公幹同嗰邊初相識嘅同事去飲咖啡，佢哋通常會講” let’s grab a coffee” 對於學英式英文長大來講好似好粗魯咁😮
I hadn't heard of 'flashlight' until I came to the US. In HK, I used torch. Is it also true in the UK? My US friend laughed at me when I said 'torch' as it means something like Olympic torch.
I had the same experience 40 years ago when I used "torch" to mean " flashlight". I deeply remember my friends here laughing that we were not in a cave!!
想問下一般英國人House Warming Party 會做咩？除了吹水，食個正餐之餘還有什麼做呢？係香港會打牌，呢度會Board Game, Bridge Game, even TV Game?
Well, how to say if its really a surgery or an operation in hospital? Thanks in advance 🙏
I am going in for surgery or I am going in for an operation
Hi
其實英國英文在香港的課本都係用一樣的字，但以後不知道了。
