The "Consent" story by Haley was hilarious , first thought " he wants sleep with me" to find out that means wall outlet , i also wouldn't understand that word

[@Trifler500]

As a native English speaker, it's just weird to me that you wouldn't just ask, "Can I plug in my phone?"

[@bishplis7226]

no if they want to bang you, they will ask if you like ramen

[@FiZc]

@@Trifler500 I think it's really funny. As an english speaker you probably don't know how much more sexual it would have sounded had the person said plug something. :D Japanese would have understood it, they say konsento for outlet.

[@Trifler500]

Hmm... Well, we do say "male" and "female" ends of the cord.

'Sharpie' in Australia is brand of White board marker / and or permanent marker so initially when they said 'Sharp' and being like a pen I was excited, but then disappointed to find out it meant refillable pencil.

[@wizardlyone]

Love these two, they have great on camera presence. I would be interested to hear more about Seong-Ji's background. Her English accent is perfect and gives me strong California vibes and I honestly thought she was American before watching a few of these videos. Curious how she learned English and whether it was just through lots of media or she has American relatives or something.

[@anndeecosita3586]

I can hear a bit of Korean in her accent for example listen to her at 9:30 but unless you were listening super close you might miss it. Overall her English sounds more like a Michigan person than a California person to me. I believe someone said she lived a long time in Canada and Michigan and Canada tell to have some overlap in accent. Minnesota and Canadians do too to my ears. I’ve mistakenly some Michigan and Minnesota people for foreigners before.

[@Mr-pn2eh]

Either way seong ji is HOT!

[@linkin0983]

I really would love to hang out with Seong-Ji, she seems so chill. Same for Haley! And I guess we've what we call Spanglish here which is when you talk Spanish, but using English words too or both at the same time. Like, we don't say "emparedado" like Spain or other Latin American countries, we say sandwich. Same goes for parking instead of "estacionamiento". There's quite a lot of words that we use the English version more than the Spanish one.

Man to Man might come from what are often called Rugby Shirts, a heavy long-sleeve over-shirt (usually), but word is also used for pullover/jumper in some places. Of course Rugby is a sport where they play man on (to) man. Or, may relate to the retail & clothing brand name, became the common name for it. (Was international brand & stores). Used to be Man-to Man stores in a number of countries, & most items had it's own Man To Man label

[@deanmcmanis9398]

In English consent is a legal term to allow or approve, including sex. There is no English term close to concent which refers to a power outlet. Also most Americans would have never heard the term pocketball, even though people could guess the meaning if you motioned like you were shooting pool. I had heard of skinship, but there is not a direct comparison in English. Maybe PDA (public display of affection) where people hold hands and kiss in public. But there isn't a common word that defines general touching contact beyond specific terms like kissing, hugging, etc.. is there a Konglish term "furship" for people who hold and love their animals all the time? Maybe man to man was a clothing brand, because otherwise it doesn't make sense. We have the term sharps, which describe dangerous garbage (like broken glass) that can cut you if not handled carefully. It is interesting Haley is unfamiliar with greenhouses, they are very common for reducing plant damage from insects, birds and other animals without using pesticides, and controlling the air temperature and humidity for sensitive plants like flowers. Fun show!

[@anndeecosita3586]

I’m American and having lived mostly in the South, the only greenhouses I’ve seen belonged to commercial nurseries or to college agricultural studies programs. I don’t see many individuals with greenhouses although vegetable and flower gardens are common. I assume it’s because of the difference in weather.

Pool was originally called Pocket Billiards (as of course different game to Billiards), or Keiley or Kelly (or several similar words) Pool, depending on from which country. (Pool Rooms were once places were people would also gamble (not on the game), & usually illegally "Pool your bets" was the call to place bets. The game survived, but the gambling there didn't. (unless your betting on your game, but best bet a drink, not $ -lol)

[@redoktober526]

I think is pool and biiliards are used interchangably like an umbrella term, it will depend on what type of game you play on the pool table ex. 8-ball, 9-ball, straight pool.

[@robert-antoinedenault5901]

In its original use, billiards refers to any type of cue sport, including carom billiards (aka French Billiards), pool, and snooker. On the other hand, pool specifically refers to a game played on a pool table. Traditionally, billiards tables do not have pockets. Pocket billiards, also called Pool (in USA), a billiards game, most popular in the United States and Canada; here in Quebec, CA as we are majority francophones, we play Billiards, Snookers and "Billiard de poches". The one that was not event in the list was Iced A.A. (for Koreans), Americano (for USA), and Espresso allongée (for all French countries) and a Long black (for Australia and New Zealand). I mean there are so many, that many not native will end up with a migraine at the end of the day. few exemples: 리모콘 (rimokon) - “remote control” 사인 (sain) - “signature” 아파트 (apateu) - “apartment” 슈퍼 (syupeo) - “supermarket’ 셀프 (selpeu) - “self-service” 레포츠 (reportseu) - “leisure” and “sports” 리조텔 (lijotel) - “resort” and “hotel” This one only works for a laptop an not a real note book, to my own surprise 노트북 (noteubuk) - “laptop” And when I resided there, I was so proud to have been living in a very large "villa" composed of an old traditional home (hanok) with an extended terrace, gardens and there was a fishing pond and a few chogas on the plot but to my surprise the natives use that terminology in a negative way as they are perceived an older fashion building and quite poor; which for us is considered quite upper class with the sheer size of property and the open, fresh and relaxed layout that complements an informal style and tries to bring as much of the exterior into the interior of the house as possible with all amenities on it's property. Villa - 빌라 (billa) Next time they should try to tell us what they did in the morning and then do it again in "proper" Korean without loan words. They will be shocked to the fact that they are loosing their own language. It's been getting terrible over the decades, I am sad to see how bad it has dwindled. Hopefully they will enforce policies to inhibit this from getting any worse.

pool and billiards are NOT the same game.

[@arenson9]

Billiards is any game played on a table with balls, a single striker ball (the cue ball), and a cue stick. Pocket billiards is any billiards game played with pockets. Pocket billiards became known as pool, because pocket billiards tables were often found in 'poolrooms' which is where money had been pooled for gambling. Snooker differs from billiards, pocket billiards, and pool in that it uses multiple striker balls.

[@MagsonDare]

There's an old radio program from the 1960's that used a joke of a guy from the 1600's reading out a modern-style real estate ad that included "room for pool" (obviously meaning a swimming pool) and asking "What's pool?" and the realtor replies "It's like snooker!" My retelling here sucks, but it's pretty funny to listen to. It's from Stan Freberg's "America: The Early Years."

I am sure in the US there is lots of greenhouses. Just up north. While one type of plastic is a poli vinyl, most are polietylene or policarbonate.

[@anndeecosita3586]

Probably more common in the North because of the weather. In the South, most of the greenhouses I see belong to commercial nurseries or to college agricultural studies programs. I don’t know any individuals who have them although I know a lot of people who have gardens.

[@Argentvs]

@@anndeecosita3586 Exactly, that's why I said in the north. Southern US is like me province here in Argentina. Greenhouses aren't needed for food production due temperate climate, the few are nurseries, research of some people that want to grow summer veggies during winter (like me).

[@jwb52z9]

I looked it up because I was curious. "Consent" comes from "concentric plug" or "concentric electric outlet". I've never seen one, so I'm not sure what makes it "concentric", though. The thing is that the "man to man" for a sweatshirt is the same reason Americans will say "Kleenex" for a "tissue". A brand existed called "Mantoman" at one point, maybe it still does, and the name just stuck for a sweatshirt.

[@antoniocasias5545]

Man-to-man has always been a bone of contention at the Korean academy where I taught ESL. I always insisted that the correct term should be "one-on-one" or "person-to-person" as opposed to "online class" but Korean English still prevailed. Some students were convinced that it wasn't a right term after I explained to them that it had gay overtones. 😄

What is pocketball? I play 9-ball, and sometimes 8-ball.

[@stevelknievel4183]

I've lived in the UK all my life (I'm 36) and I've never heard of pocketball. I've heard of billiards but couldn't tell you anything about it other than that its not the same thing as snooker or pool. Being British, when I think of pool the variant I normally think of is blackball That's not a term I'd come across until researching this comment though. I know about 8 ball but think of it as being American. I would normally refer to a 'Vinyl House' as a greenhouse or a glasshouse. If people have them in their gardens they would always be made of glass. Large plastic ones are used on a commercial scale but these would be called polytunnels. (Plastic is a polymer and their tunnel shaped - hence the name.)

Neither pocketball nor pocket ball are words in American English. No idea what they mean because they never actually say what it means, which is a bit upsetting. Pool has several game variations, none of which are called pocket ball. Pocket billiards is a British term referring to pool. When I hear pocket ball, I think of a dude playing with his balls with his hands in his pockets. That's what it's always meant in my lifetime. We have greenhouses all over the US. I've traveled to nearly 44 states and you see them all over, but particularly northern states to keep the heat in and in southwestern & west coast states to keep the moisture in.

[@anndeecosita3586]

I’m American and if I heard someone say pocketball my immediate assumption would be they are talking about pool. That’s because the table’s holes are called pockets and pocket billiards = pool. I’ve never heard it used to refer to a man playing with his genitalia through his pocket although I know there are dudes who do this. Sometimes even among Americans some words/expressions aren’t universal.
