Some of these differences aren't really different. I guess it just depends on the area in the US😁

Thanks for Watching! 😀💗 - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
The musical Oklahoma has a song with the line "surrey with a fringe in the top"
Chunder is Australian. x
"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover, yeah"
In the UK we hardly ever get ID'd it just happens to teens wanting drinks. We Adults never need to carry I D. It's just not a thing. A Subway is a footpath under a road for crossing or other access. In the UK we say it's so much fun, not just so fun.
I think a lot of the reason why we get Id'd is because businesses can be shut down for not doing it, it's just a law ig. But if you're a local going to get a pack of cigs they sometimes let you off. Never alcohol tho!
99% correct, Here in the UK he is correct
Im Scottish. Never heard a brit say chunder before the Australian band Men At Work..mentioned it in their early 80's hit 'Land Down Under'.....still not a British term
I agree, I’d say more likely to use puked or threw up
That's what us Americans say, the rare times I do hear someone say puke it's usually "I threw up"😅
Captions are ok if you need them, they can be funny in themselves.
In fact its going to be funny to see when you finally have to resort to them. Im guessing in about one week!
😂😂💗
Sweets, try reacting to some uk comedy, i suggest watching some before you post them, the most successful channels are those that react to British comedy, us brits LOVE funny and LOVE seeing other nations enjoy our sense of humour, im English and id love to see your channel boom so sweetheart research some uk comedy, stick with it and the people of the uk will support you 🏴
Only Fools and Horses is very popular in the UK. Another one is the Inbetweeners but that isn't really family viewing. Father ted and Dave Allen are also worth a look.
You found another one, we call the thing with money in it at the shops, where you pay, the till, not the register lol 🏴🙂 should have waited until the end 🤔😂 really enjoying your reactions
One that's not on the list. Americans call them CLOSED CAPTIONS. We call them SUBTITLES.
CHUNDER is Australian !
I've never said closed captions although that's what it says when you go into settings. I just say captions or even subtitles
Yeah it's an adopted word from when Australia fever hit the UK in the late 80s. We went nuts over everything Aussie back then, and some words have stuck, like chunder and wuss. It was to do with the very connected history and the bicentenary. Kylie Minogue owes her career to it actually. Well that and a couple of other things she has going for her hehehehe
I more often these days say sofa instead of settee for couch.
In UK we often say Puked for Vomited.
I call it being sick.
Never puke or chunder!!
I think it's Australian chunder it's in the Men at Work song Down Under.
Scots say "Jag" instead of jab - Moscow is also a village in Ayrshire !
Interesting 🤔💗
Always laugh at the rubber/eraser, both stop mistakes, x
True 🤣🤣
Really interesting that you use some of the same words I use in the UK like ID'd, pharmacy & curtains. But I rarely use settee and mostly use couch or sofa.
Yea some of the words the girl said must be from the south?😅
@@Kayla.burlin for many years I used to travel to just north of New Orleans and stay for 4 weeks at a time and they used carded and drapes. I've been to many other US places as well. The US is a great place to visit but I love the UK.
I never use Settee ever. The working class from SE London (ie ME) say sofa. I have heard ladies trying to be posh saying it though. I heard once that the very posh people rarely use French sounding words like "settee" for things around their homes, but the middle classes love them.
I'm having a lot of fun watching all these! EDIT: The last one I heard that it's known as a Ladybird because of Catholic references to it being "Our Lady's Birds" due to very old paintings of the Madonna in gardens, but it could be something somebody lied to me about hahahahah
I'm glad you enjoy these as much as I do!! 🇺🇸💗🇬🇧
Register... this actually comes from the name of the book the roll call is marked down in. This is called the Register Of Attendance (don't know if it still called this, I did my schooling in the 60s and 70s) and is an official document. Settee comes from India. Lots of English words have their origin from the days of the Raj; Bungalow and veranda being a couple of others.
I never knew that! Makes sense though since y'all were all over the world😅💗
subscribed uk here, thanks for Video.
Thanks for the sub! 😁 I love learning about the UK🇬🇧💗
@@Kayla.burlin We have very much history here.
Ladybird is such a nice name. 😊 Ladybug, not so much 😮
❤ from Northeast England ❤️
But it's a bug 🐛😂. Ladybird does sound nice 😁
65,000 total views in 2 weeks. Thats everyone in a huge football stadium. Easy, this reaction lark, isnt it😉
I guess so😅. I truly wasn't expecting to get the feedback that I did😂💗I'm so grateful for all the kind people I've met😊
You are very eloquent. x
Thank you💗
U should check out ‘The Inbetweeners’, it’s a comedy with 3 seasons, 6 episodes each. If u like British comedy, u’ll love the Inbetweeners.
Agreed
I think Hoagie is a word they use in Pennsylvania. But I could be wrong
never said chunder for being sick, we would say throwing up! Chunder must be a kids word. Sadly even our everyday words nowadays have changed their meanings. i innocently walked into an office and caught a woman with the door who was standing behind it. I apologised for bonking her and the office erupted and I was told you can't say that to her, to which I asked why? I have just hit her with the door! they then explained that Bonk nowadays means to have sexual intercourse. I give up.
"Bonk" is also a term used by cyclists when blood sugar levels have dropped a great deal. It's a horrible experience.
We use bonk here in the same context "oops I bonked you with the door" never heard it be used in a sexual way tho 🤔

1000 SUBS🎉
All those youtube bonus features!
I hope it was my 5th gmail account wot did it😀
Oi, it was mine wot did it!
Oi, it was mine😀
Id love to know what % are British?
Yayyy! Thank you all so much 🙏🏽💗 You guys have been awesome 😇😊
English words can have more than one meaning
The difference between Barney the Pedantic Purple dinosaur, and Thesaurus Rex. ;-)
Several meanings sometimes depending on the word.
English words. There's no British words.
Never heard anyone say chunder
I would just disregaurd that video as many of the words are not what he says they are, the most obvious was Chunder, that's Australian slang and not used in the UK and even I notice he had a few USA ones stated wrong too and I'm from Wales, UK and never been out the country, lol
Interesting, I didn't know this. Thanks for the info 👍🏽💗
@@Kayla.burlin Btw, thanks for doing these reaction vids, I enjoy seeing new vids from you.
Evan Edinger - an American Reactor from New Jersey says "hoagy" and there used to be an American pianist / singer in the 1950's called "Hoagy Carmichael" but I don't know where he was from, or how he got called "Hoagy"... I invite advice from your subscribers / followers, if you please? 🏴🙂❤️🇬🇧🖖
And this particular Englishman cant spell Kayla lol 🤣🤣😂😂
