[00:00.59]Unit 5 English and English-speaking Countries
[00:05.27]Lesson 18
[00:10.49]Exercise 1.2
[00:13.21]I stayed with an English family for a few1
[00:15.95]weeks last summer,
[00:17.45]I had3 a fantastic4 time and learned5 a lot about
[00:20.07]English history and English culture6.
[00:22.12]I even7 learned s few new English words!
[00:25.21]What do you mean ?
[00:26.79]You already8 speak English,don't you?
[00:29.69]Yeah,but in England they have
[00:31.39]different words for things.
[00:33.85]Such as2 ...?
[00:35.81]Well,let me give you some examples,
[00:38.06]One day, we went into a building.
[00:40.53]Peter,my English friend told me
[00:42.06]"We must take the elevator9 at the first floor"
[00:45.70]"Elevator"?They're the same as "lift",right?
[00:49.71]Yes ,It was10 also very strange11 .
[00:51.97]When I looked for the lift on the first floor.
[00:54.15]I couldn't find it ,
[00:55.64]Peter told me that in England.
[00:57.38]"the first floor"referred to
[00:59.14]the second floor of the building.
[01:01.20]They call the first floor"ground floor."
[01:04.02]Oh,I see.And what else is different?
[01:08.27]Well,another day we were out in the street
[01:11.31]and I started to feel a little hungry.
[01:14.01]So I said12 ,"I want something to eat,
[01:16.73]Let's go to that store13 over there
[01:18.02]and buy some chips14.
[01:19.81]And Peter said ."They don't sell chips there.
[01:22.98]It's not a restaurant,you know ,"
[01:25.10]You see ,in England chips is the word
[01:28.10]that use for French15 fries ,
[01:30.47]When they talk about the things
[01:31.86]that we call chips.
[01:32.94]They say crisps16.
[01:34.44]This is very interesting.
[01:37.09]Are there many different words
[01:38.84]between American and British17 English?
[01:41.18]No,there are't many,but there are some.
[01:45.04]We have cookies18 but in England
[01:46.92]the word is biscuits.
[01:48.53]And in England.people don't eat candies19.
[01:52.43]No?
[01:53.46]What do they eat?
[01:55.26]They call candies sweets.
[01:58.04]Wow!You really learned a lot of new words!
[02:06.31]Exercise 1.5
[02:09.64]Apart from food and drink.
[02:12.02]there are also differences20
[02:13.30]in the names clothing21.
[02:15.47]For example,the things that we call pants22.
[02:19.08]they call trousers,And they call pants
[02:22.91]what we call underpants.
[02:25.49]The piece of clothing that they call a vest.
[02:27.79]we call an undershirt,
[02:29.86]And the thing that we call a vest
[02:31.82]is called a waistcoat in England.
[02:33.99]Isn't it interesting?
[02:39.54]Exercise 2.1
[02:42.07]It is sure that most Americans would23 say,
[02:45.86]"Excuse me ,do you have ...?",
[02:48.17]while in Britain24 it would be more common25 to say,
[02:51.34]"Excuse me ,have you got26...?"
[02:54.21]However,both forms27 would be understood28
[02:56.98]in both countries ,
[02:58.81]This is also true29 for the
[03:00.47]differences in vocabulary30.
[03:02.96]The British say"petrol"and "filling31 station",
[03:06.70]while the American say"gas32"and "gas station."
[03:10.77]But ,if an American asked for "gas
[03:13.20]"in a British "Filling station,"
[03:15.25]he would get what he wanted ,
[03:17.02]and an Englishman33 who askd for"petrol "in a "
[03:19.94]gas station"would drive away with a full tank34.
