18 yo: You’re not going to go to the store then? Me: You mean the shop. They use the word store in America, but in this country, the UK, we like to use the word ‘shop’ 18 yo: Deep sigh.

18 小時內	James Marshall ceilingsintheireyes	I’ve literally heard English people pronounce closet like “clawzit” because they’d only ever heard Americans say it because we don’t say closet at all here. So when I said you mean “clozzit” they’d say “what’s that” 🙃
20 小時內	Francesca M-F chescaphotography	I'm an English teacher, and here are some common Americanisms I see my students using: apartment, store, anyways, shopping cart, I could care less, math, zee (instead of zed), gotten, bangs, takeout... the list goes on! (If I see one more American spelling I may be forced to defenestrate myself...)
