This activity must be written in English :)

# data[].attributes.body
As we have seen in our last class, there are many words in British English which can be written differently in American English. The meaning of these words is the same but, as I told you, their spelling is different. Remember: AmE: parking lot - BrE: car park.

I want you to write one word in British English and its American English equivalence. You must write your reflections on these words and how do you feel when using them.

Good luck!

This is an interesting fact you must know (it doesn’t take part in this task).

You have to choose one accent when you do your next speaking and writing tasks. In other words, if you want to write or speak in American English, you must use the words and the their correct pronunciation (American English has a rothic accent and British English is a non-rothic accent).

I’m sure this video can help you with your choice!

AmE: eggplant - BrE: aubergine

I think that when I hear “aubergine” I get hungry.

I prefer British accent because it sounds more polite than the American one.

AmE: truck - BrE: lorry

I always hear the word “truck” in American movies and I love this word. I wish we learnt more American words in our English lessons.

AmE: candy - BrE: sweets

When I visited London, I saw a shop called “Sweets and Treats” I realised “sweet” means “candy” when I heard a song of Robbie Williams with that title :)

In the future, elevators will be like this one ;)

AmE: elevator - BrE: lift

In my opinion, “elevator” is easier to remember because it sounds like “elevate”.

AmE: vacation - BrE: holiday

Don’t you feel relaxed when you hear the word “holiday”?

AmE: sidewalk - BrE: pavement

In my opinion, it’s funny that “pavement” in American English means “the road surface”, not the same!

AmE: chips - BrE: crisps

Eating crisps is the best thing you can do ever!!! However, this one always confuses me… In the UK, “chips” are “ french fries”, and “crisps” are what Americans call “chips”.

AmE: sneakers - BrE: trainers

I like both words, but “trainers” sounds more sporty.

Listen to my American and British pronunciation and tell me if I can improve something, please.

It’s embarrasing but I think I need some help :(

AmE: movie - BrE: film

We always talk about “films” in class, but on Netflix they say “movies”. Fantastic!

AmE: garbage can - BrE: bin

In the UK they say “rubbish bin”. I think “gabage can” sounds bigger and stronger.
