Crisps > Chips
Chips > Fries
Mum > Mom
Juice > Soda
Dummy > Binky
Nappy > Diaper
Trousers > Pants
Pants > Underpants


I'll add more later

Juice is what we call fruit-drinks that arent carbonated. We call pants with straps over the sholders trousers, but regular pants we call pants. Thus under pants makes sense.

I dont know how or why this is, but in the US, there arent U's in a lot of words that there are in england. For example, colour is color. Neighbour is neighbor, ect. Steriotypical lazyness? Haha.

Personaly i think its a good thing, The Uk for some reason dosnt seem to want to change and is still sticking to old spellinsg drived from french and the many other langaegs are one draws from. Ameircas, basicly fixed these random an illogal letters and made them in to simpler more stairt forwards words, which makes more sence.
britian has a bit of an obssesion with sticking to tradition, dispite how stupid many may be... judges and those working in the legal system etc still have tow ware stupid victoaran Wigs... now thats pointless imo.

It's english. o_O

I don't think you'd need much help if trying to speak "American" when you've spoken all your life.

Maybe you're referring to the accents or word usage? ;p

Aren't juice and soda different things? I always thought juice was like squeezed fruits and soda was fizzy drink?
