The NYTimes have come out with a quiz that can pinpoint the exact area of the US you're from based on certain slang you use! I decided to test it out with a Brit, and another American from Missouri! Let's see where we're from!

If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)

@emjayay 4 года назад

@diane Taylor In the US "dope" would have been just heroin many decades ago, but "smoking dope" = smoking marijuana has been common for years in many places. I've seen it in print. "dope" is an old Southern term for cola, which originally had cocaine in it. In the South today any flavors of carbonated drink may still be all called a "coke". In certain parts of the US, from western NY state across to the northern west coast, it's often or always pop. Google "soda map".

Millicent Bowers a service road is its own separate road with multiple lanes, separated from the highway (or motorway). usually, at least where i’m from, the highway has tolls where as the service road is toll free and has traffic lights and intersections. when exiting the highway you exit onto the service road. i hope that makes sense.

@seraphina985 5 лет назад

@@CallMeBeautifulRacoon Yeah what they are talking about isn't connected to the main carriageway at all, in the US they sometimes have parallel roads that run alongside but are not connected to the motorway especially when they run the motorway smack through the middle of town like they do a lot in the US.

For the long sandwich on a roll, "poor boy" is actually "Po Boy", with a New Orleans accent. Because that's what they call them. The problem with Evan in this case and many others is there's a lot of things he just doesn't know, so he thinks they are funny. "Grinder" is New England. "Sub" is short for "submarine sandwich", for obvious reasons.

Kitty-corner, water fountain, tennis shoes, and you guys put me squarely in Minnesota where I grew up. Our town was full of Bohemians (Czech immigrant descendants) who uniquely said youse. It was not allowed in my British-Norwegian immigrant setting even though my father grew up speaking only Norwegian ... and that was one of their favorite words.

@jamesporter628 5 лет назад

I don't think they meant a hard shoulder. It's like a road next to the main highway but not another lane which a hard shoulder basically is

@@mrmagoo-i2l A motorway junction (UK) is apparently called a highway interchange (US) While I was looking this up, I came across this page which was interesting, but in the UK it's 00:43am so I didn't read the whole thing because I need to go to bed :D separatedbyacommonlanguage.blogspot.com/2008/06/on-highwaymotorway.html

I'm from Baton Rouge, LA. It guesses Baton Rouge as number 1, NOLA as number 2, and Mobile, AL as number 3. "Poor boy" is commonly shorted to what I'm sure you non-Louisianans know as poboy, but uses French bread only (otherwise it would be a sub or hoagie or just a disappointment) and is dressed a very specific way (some people get very defensive over what is and isn't a poboy so I'm not even getting into that). Neutral ground is exclusively a New Orleans thing. In the 1800s when English speakers began to take up residence in New Orleans after the Purchase, the French speaking inhabitants weren't exactly thrilled. Tensions were high, but the French speaking folks stayed on the side of Canal Street that is now know as the French Quarter and the Anglo-Americans stayed on the other side. in 1836, the local paper called the median of Canal Street "neutral ground" and the term has been used since.

People that block the road to look at an accident are called terror-toeristen in dutch which literally mean terror-tourists. Youre also called a terror-toerist if you go out of your way to see the site of accident, fire etc.
