On a serious note, in WW2 whenever a new prisoner arrived at a POW camp (on either side), senior officers would ask them questions very similar to this sort of style to try to catch out intelligence officers of the side running the POW camp planted there in disguise. One Australian pilot was easily able to establish his bona fides, after arriving in a POW camp in Germany, by telling his inquisitors how his squadron had organised a chook-throwing competition on Melbourne Cup Day.

An American was discovered in Germany during WWII because he put up the wrong "3" sign with his fingers.

When she asked for the sidewalk, very smart because she knew it with Christina's videos. In UK, they say pavement.

Some of the questions were as odd as the accents. Why ask how many minutes it takes someone to run a mile? We think in terms in minutes/mile in Britain anyway, not minutes/km. I’m not personally good at instinctively guessing how hot a room is in Fahrenheit or Celsius or imagining how hot it is when being told a temperature. I see that they’re expecting British people to use Celsius and American ones to use Fahrenheit but many elder people here in Britain still talk in terms of Fahrenheit. I find temperatures in Fahrenheit easier to work with even though I’m not old, in fact, as there’s a wider temperature range - though I’m probably not typical in that regard among those in my age group.

[@Zammy-gj8xn]

I don't know - I feel like the temperature one is a fair question. For instance, although I know most Americans keep room temperature between 68 and 74 degrees Fahrenheit, if a British person asked me the same question, I wouldn't immediately know off the top of my head a temperature within that same range to give in Celsius. I might say something like 16 Celsius which would immediately give me away since that's likely too cold to keep a home for most people.

The average American would probably say it feels like 30 degrees in here or Below zero. I don't know anyone, in casual language, that uses Fahrenheit or Celsius to describe temperature (even if that's what they're referring to).

From context it sounds like they were born in the US while their immigrant parents were living here. And for all we know their parents were naturalized citizens (meaning they passed a citizenship test once they moved here.) In the United States if someone is born within the USA then you are automatically a US citizen no matter where the parents were from originally.
