I just realized that my english is a mix of American, British, and Australian

I'm french and I just realised that when I speak english I mix all of these.. I guess teachers at school in France just didn't tell us the differences between cultures, that's too bad! Very interesting video

A dooner in Australia is - called Doona because it is usually a simple quilt or cotton bag that is filled with goose or duck down (the soft feathers) - down became doon - 'dooner' & then placed into a removable cotton casing. U put it straight onto your bed with just an undersheet & your pillow. No blankets, nothing else. A comforter is usually a quilt that can also be filled with down but it tends to have quilted stitching on it & doesn't get a cover placed over it & is used as a top bedspread.

I'm American and have been all over the states and I have never heard a store that only sells alcohol called a ABC Store. This type of store is called a liquor store lol. Also what Vanessa calls a tractor trailer is a semi truck or just semi for short. I agree with you Lucy on the woods vs forest! Lastly, in America a duvet is a type of comforter that has a removable cover. So interesting how English is different around the world!

Dovet is the one where you have a cover and internals that can be separated. A comforter is one that can't be seperated.

Learned some British English when I grew up…every time when I want to say “side walk”, pavement came into my head but then when the word is at my mouth, it feels weird and I always second guess. Some other good ones: rubber/ eraser, torch/ flash light, trash/ garbage. Biscute was a good one. Took time to absorb that.

Hey, i'm Peter but I'm French. I really loved that one. I tell my students to feel comfortable with any of these words because we can't reach perfection. As long as you try, that's ok. That's interesting how you manage to make it cool and not boring.

my english be like: AUSMERICANTISH

Hi Lucy. Thanks for this video - quite interesting. You seemed surprised by some US or AU words although these were quite easy and common words. Now imagine how suprising/difficult this might be for foreigners who learn UK English and talk to an US/AU person or learn US English and come to Europe. I'm Polish working in Poland and using English for over 25 years now and I struggled quite a lot when started prefessional cooperation with an US company. Vocab they use for business is totally different from what we use in Europe, like deck (PP presentation), regroup (meet again on the same topic), recap (summary) or copy (description of a product). Maybe this will be helpfull for some of your followers. Cheers!

What a fun video! I laughed so much!! 😂🤣 Thanks for sharing! 🙏💕

For a non native speaker like me, American english is a lot easier to understand. British english is indeed beautiful in its own way.
