(upbeat music) - Hello everyone and welcome back to English with Lucy.
0:13
I have got such a treat for you today!
0:15
I've been excited about this for such a long time.
0:18
I am shortly going to welcome two lovely guests who have generously given their
0:25
time to help teach you the differences between Australian English,
0:31
American English, and British English.
0:34
This is going to be a two-part series, today,
0:37
we are going to focus on vocabulary
0:40
and then in the next part of the video,
0:42
we are focusing on pronunciation.
0:45
We may all speak the same language: English,
0:49
but we have very different accents and we speak with different vocabularies.
0:56
So this video is perfect for improving your vocabulary
1:00
but if you want to improve your pronunciation
1:02
and your listening skills even further,
1:05
then I highly recommend the special method of combining reading books whilst listening to
1:11
their audiobook counterpart on Audible.
1:15
This is how you use the method.
1:18
Take a book that you have already read in English
1:20
or a book that you would like to read in English,
1:23
I've got plenty of recommendations down below in the description box,
1:27
and read that book whilst listening to the audiobook version on Audible.
1:33
Reading alone will not help you with your pronunciation
1:36
because English isn't a strictly phonetic language.
1:40
The way a word is written in English may not give you much indication
1:43
at all as to how it's pronounced in English.
1:47
But if you listen to a word at the same time as reading it,
1:51
your brain will start making connections.
1:54
And the next time you hear that word, you'll know exactly how it's spelt,
1:58
and the next time you see that word written down,
2:01
you'll know exactly how it's pronounced.
2:04
It is such an effective method
2:06
and the best part is you can get one free audiobook,
2:10
that's a 30-day free trial on Audible,
2:12
all you've got to do is on the link in the description box
2:15
and sign up.
2:16
I've got loads of recommendations down there for you.
2:19
Right, let's get on with the lesson and welcome our guests.
2:23
Firstly, I would like to welcome Emma to the channel. - Hey there,
2:27
I'm Emma from the mmmEnglish YouTube channel,
2:31
coming at you from Perth in Western Australia. -
2:35
And we also have Vanessa. - Hi I'm Vanessa
2:40
and I live in North Carolina in the U.S..
2:43
I run the YouTube channel Speak English With Vanessa. - It's
2:47
so lovely to have Emma
2:49
and Vanessa on the channel.
2:50
I've known Emma for a very, very long time,
2:53
four years now and I've recently got to know Vanessa.
2:57
Both of them have fantastic YouTube channels
3:00
and all of their information is in the description box
3:03
if you want to follow them.
3:04
So I have got some pictures and Vanessa,
3:07
Emma and I are going to tell you how we would say what's in
3:12
these pictures in our own country.
3:15
You might be surprised at some of the answers.
3:19
Okay so let's start with this one. - In the U.S. these are chips,
3:25
100% just chips. - I can't believe you started with this one.
3:30
These are chips. - We call these crisps, crisps. - The other word that you used,
3:39
Lucy, is the most complicated word in the English language to say.
3:44
So let's just call them chips and move along. - Yeah,
3:47
I'll give you that one.
3:48
Crisps is a notoriously difficult word for learners of English.
3:52
It's the sps sound at the end, crisps.
3:56
You'll find a lot of people mispronouncing them as crips, crips,
4:01
when they should be crisps.
4:04
So here is the next one
4:05
and it gets even more complicated
4:07
because in the UK we call these chips.
4:12
So in the U.S.,
4:12
the cold version is chips and in the UK the hot version is chips.
4:18
Let's see it what Vanessa has to say about this.
4:20
What does she call them? - These are French fries.
4:23
I know that they're not really French
4:26
but we still call them French fries
4:28
or you can just say fries by themselves. - The next one's chips
4:32
as well,
4:33
right?
4:33
They're hot chips. - Hot chips, oh my god!
4:37
Hot chips, Australians just call everything chips then.
4:40
It is worth noting
4:41
that if you go to England
4:42
and you order fries
4:43
or French fries,
4:44
we know exactly what you mean.
4:47
Okay, next we have this one. - We call these cookies
4:51
or chocolate chip cookies specifically. - Okay they are biscuits.
4:59
Don't really hear people saying cookie. - Yes, two against one!
5:04
These for us are biscuits
5:05
as well and we would use cookie to refer to an American style,
5:10
normally, chocolate chip cookie.
5:12
However if you use the word biscuit in the United States,
5:17
you might get something that you are not expecting.
5:20
Vanessa has more on this. - If you ask someone, "Do you have any biscuits?"
5:24
or, "I want a biscuit," they would not give you this,
5:27
instead they'd give you a savoury kind of fluffy type piece of bread.
5:34
A biscuit is savoury and a cookie is sweet. - So there we have it.
5:40
If you fancy something sweet with your coffee in America,
5:43
don't ask for a biscuit. (chuckles) You will be bitterly disappointed.
5:49
Okay, Vanessa got very passionate about this next one.
5:55
Very passionate.
5:56
Here is the picture.
5:57
Vanessa seems to think
5:59
that she knows the absolute correct answer
6:03
and she's even done research.
6:05
I did not expect Emma
6:07
and Vanessa to get books out for this video. - I have the proof
6:12
that my answer is the most correct
6:14
because you can see my two-year-old son is obsessed with trucks,
6:20
we have so many truck books.
6:21
Let me read to you.
6:23
What truck do you need?
6:24
A tractor trailer. (chuckles)
6:27
So this is also what I would call it a tractor trailer.
6:30
I might call it a semi. - Alright
6:33
that yellow thing is a truck. -
6:35
So Vanessa thinks it's a tractor trailer
6:37
and she's very,
6:38
very sure about it. - In all of these books,
6:42
they call it a tractor trailer
6:44
so we're gonna go with
6:45
that one. - That really tickled me. - Emma thinks it's a truck.
6:50
In the UK we would call this a lorry,
6:53
a lorry. - It's a truck. - Whatever Emma, it's a lorry.
6:58
Okay, what about this next one?
7:02
What have the women got up here? - These girls all have bangs. -
7:08
We would definitely say fringe.
7:10
Bangs is probably becoming more popular, especially colloquially. - So in the UK,
7:18
we definitely call this a fringe
7:20
and when I started hearing the word bangs in movies
7:23
and things like that,
7:24
I was really genuinely confused.
7:27
Okay what about this next one? - This is candy. - They are lollies, lollies. - Lollies,
7:37
that is so cute!
7:39
So in British English these are sweets.
7:42
Or sometimes if you're talking to a child, they might call them sweeties.
7:46
Lollies for us are sweets on a stick.
7:49
Right, what about this next one? - This is a swimsuit.
7:55
Some people might call it a bathing suit,
7:58
you can also call this a one-piece. - Okay, this one's really funny.
8:02
In Melbourne where I'm from,
8:04
it's really common to call them togs
8:07
but no one else in Australia really calls them togs,
8:09
they call it swimmers.
8:11
In Sydney they call them cozzies or costumes but generally it's swimmers or bathers.
8:21
Oh gosh, that's another one, bathers or swimmers. - Oh my word,
8:27
I did not expect to receive so many different ways of saying swimming costume.
8:33
This for us is a swimming costume.
8:35
We can also say one-piece
8:38
and we can also shorten it down to cozzy.
8:41
I remember my mum saying,
8:42
"get your cosy on," before my swimming lessons
8:44
when I was a child
8:45
but that's quite a childish thing.
8:48
Okay what about this next one? - This is the forest. -
8:52
That is definitely a forest. - No!
8:57
It's the woods, woods, plural.
9:00
This is definitely the woods.
9:02
I mean in general we say the woods.
9:05
Forest implies a huge, huge area of trees,
9:10
of woodland. - The woods sounds kind of like something you might hear in
9:15
an old-fashioned fairy tale. - Yeah well,
9:18
Vanessa, sometimes life in England is like an old-fashioned fairy tale.
9:23
I think a lot of Americans have this vision of England
9:27
as a place with
9:28
so much culture and history,
9:31
like a fairy tale,
9:32
and then they come over and they are just so disappointed.
9:37
Okay what about this next one? - This is a bathroom.
9:42
You might say it's a restroom
9:44
but it would be really unusual to call a place
9:46
that actually has a bathtub a restroom.
9:49
Usually we use the term restroom for public places. - That room is a bathroom.
9:55
Yeah, it's a bathroom. - Okay so Vanessa touched on restroom and bathroom.
10:02
Now we would never use the word restroom in British English.
10:06
If we were in a public place and we are looking for a bathroom,
10:10
we would say toilet.
10:12
However if there is a bath there, like a bathtub, then yes,
10:15
we might say bathroom as well.
10:18
But we would ask where's the toilet. - If you say where's the toilet,
10:25
most people in the US would just say,
10:27
"It's in the bathroom." - I mean she is not wrong.
10:31
The toilet is in the bathroom.
10:34
There is also a slang word
10:35
which I use a lot
10:37
which is the loo,
10:38
where's the loo.
10:39
I went to the States for a business trip
10:41
and I asked people where the loo was
10:43
and they were utterly confused.
10:46
"The loo, what's the loo?"
10:48
All right let's move on to the next. - This is an apartment.
10:52
This is mostly called an apartment. - We would never say flat. - Okay
10:58
so in British English this is a flat.
11:00
We have a block of flats; I've lived in many flats in my life.
11:04
We don't use the word apartment.
11:06
Okay the next one.
11:08
Maybe the picture wasn't clear enough for this one
11:10
because Emma did get a bit confused
11:12
but she gave us all of the options,
11:14
good old Emma. - This is a grocery store. - I'm not exactly sure
11:19
what I'm looking at in
11:20
that image but it could be a trolley,
11:24
it could be an aisle, or it could be a supermarket. - A bingo,
11:30
it's a supermarket for us as well, or we call it the shops.
11:34
I'm going to the supermarket; I'm going to the shops.
11:36
The shops is more general, it could mean any type of shop.
11:39
We would never say grocery store.
11:42
We might however say grocers, the grocers.
11:46
This is a shop that just sells fruits and vegetables.
11:49
All right, next one. - This is a comforter. - Oh my god,
11:54
how weird is the word comforter?
11:56
That's weird.
11:59
In Australia that's called a doona. - (laughs) I love
12:04
that Emma is saying
12:06
that the word comforter is weird
12:08
and then she goes to say
12:09
that in Australia it's a doona.
12:12
That's weirder, Emma.
12:14
So in British English this is a duvet, a duvet,
12:18
which apparently Vanessa finds weird.
12:20
See we will find each other weird.
12:22
I didn't know what a duvet was, maybe I'm very sheltered,
12:25
but I didn't know what a duvet was until I visited Europe.
12:28
We just do not have those in the U.S. - Okay I feel there's
12:32
gonna be a lot of conflict about this next one. - These are bell
12:37
peppers. - Okay they're capsicums;
12:41
red, green, yellow capsicums. - No!
12:45
They're just plain old peppers.
12:47
Red peppers, green peppers, and yellow peppers.
12:51
Capsicum, what?
12:52
This isn't Latin, this is English.
12:54
Okay another one that's gonna cause a bit of conflict. - These are rain
12:59
boots and also the jacket
13:01
that goes with it is a raincoat
13:03
or a rain jacket.
13:05
I guess in the U.S. we like really clear,
13:07
straightforward names for items like this.
13:11
Rain boots, what's it for?
13:13
It's for the rain, it's very clear,
13:15
boots for the rain. - I mean she's not wrong, is she?
13:18
American English is sometimes more simplified than British English
13:22
and this is no bad thing,
13:23
really.
13:24
Let's see what Emma has to say. - When it's muddy and rainy,
13:30
I would put my gumboots on to walk around in the wet. - Yeah,
13:36
I mean we would we never say gumboots.
13:39
I think I've heard my grandma say it
13:40
so it might be quite an old-fashioned thing.
13:43
In British English we say wellies or wellie boots.
13:47
Are you ready for this next one, are you ready?
13:49
Because what Australians call these is frankly shocking.
13:57
Let's hear from Vanessa first. - These are flip-flops. - Yeah, these are flip-flops,
14:04
Emma.
14:05
What do you call them?
14:06
When we go to the beach in Australia we wear our thongs.
14:12
Our thongs, it's plural and we're talking about the shoes on our feet,
14:17
they are thongs. (laughing) - So I have to explain to you what thongs,
14:26
what a thong is in British English and American English.
14:30
A song is like a G-string.
14:33
It's a type of underwear where there is just one string at the back
14:40
instead of more fabric.
14:42
If Emma said to me, "Can I borrow some thongs?"
14:47
I would probably lend her some but I'd be a bit concerned.
14:53
Okay, next one, where would you go to fill up your car? - This
14:58
is a gas station where you put gas into your car. -
15:01
So when I fill up my car,
15:03
I fill it up at the petrol station. - Ah, good,
15:08
I am with Emma again on this one.
15:10
She's redeeming herself after the thong situation.
15:15
Yes, we also call this a petrol station.
15:18
The fuel that we put into our car is petrol.
15:21
I spent much of my childhood confused
15:24
but I was especially confused by the fact
15:27
that Americans put gas into their car 'cause I thought well petrols are liquid.
15:32
Turns out it's just short for gasoline.
15:34
Now the next one's quite interesting,
15:36
I want to know what they call a shop that only sells alcohol,
15:41
and this is interesting because in America, their attitude towards alcohol is slightly different.
15:48
We're very open, maybe too open to alcohol in the UK and Australia.
15:55
The alcohol is more controlled by the government in the States,
16:00
in the United States. - This is an ABC store
16:02
which I just learned 'cause I just looked it up,
16:04
it stands for alcohol beverage controlled state.
16:08
So this is a story
16:09
that sells only alcohol
16:11
and that last word state is
16:14
because it is run by the state
16:16
or run by the government. - Now let's see what Emma calls it
16:19
because I have heard
16:20
that Australians have some fun names for places like these. -
16:25
When I go and get a bottle of wine,
16:26
I go to the bottle shop,
16:29
which in Australia we also call the bottle-o. - Bottle-o, love it!
16:34
It would sound so stupid in a British accent.
16:38
I'm just going to the bottle-o, do you need anything?
16:41
Bottle-o, yeah it only works really when you pronounce your Ts as duh,
16:47
bottle-o.
16:48
In British English, we call this an off licence, an off licence.
16:53
Okay what about this next one?
16:56
I feel like I'm going to get ganged up on here. - These are
17:01
pants. - Pants,
17:03
pants.
17:04
Old people might call them trousers. - Well excuse me,
17:08
I must be very old then because these are hands down trousers,
17:13
they are trousers.
17:15
We do use the word pants to refer to underpants.
17:20
Oh, 'cause they go under your pants, yeah maybe they are right.
17:23
My whole life has been a lie.
17:26
Underpants 'cause they go under your pants.
17:28
Ugh, undertrousers, doesn't work, does it?
17:31
Well anyway, these are trousers and I'm not old Emma, yet.
17:37
Now what do we call this?
17:39
The little walking space beside a road. - This is a sidewalk. - The
17:46
concrete beside the road where people walk in Australia is called a footpath. -
17:51
Interesting,
17:51
we don't say either of these, we say pavement, pavement.
17:56
Now we would never say sidewalk, we do say footpath,
18:00
but a footpath is normally not beside a road.
18:05
A pavement is just beside a road and a footpath is anywhere else.
18:09
Okay another car related one,
18:11
what do we call this? - This is a highway
18:14
or you could call it an interstate. - A highway
18:17
or maybe a freeway in Australia. - Ooh,
18:21
we don't say either of these either.
18:24
We never say highway in British English.
18:29
Interstate, well we don't have states so that doesn't work either.
18:34
Freeway, no.
18:35
Freeway sounds dangerous, it sounds like you can do whatever you want.
18:38
As I said before, I've left all of their information in the description box.
18:38
Make sure you watch the other video in this two-part series on pronunciation.
18:38
So we're going to be focusing on the same words
18:39
that are pronounced differently in each accent.
18:39
Don't forget to check out Audible, you can get your free audiobook,
18:40
