Cilantro is a Spanish word. The British and Australian doesn't have Latin American influencing their language.

[@sscorpiun6135]

luc thin indeed. It’s likely that coriander has french origin, since a lot of the English language has Norman french influence.

[@chiprbob]

In the US, the seeds are coriander and can be found in any grocery store. Cilantro is the fresh green leaves and came from the influence of Mexican cuisine on the US. It really isn't that odd to have different names for different parts of the plant. We have two spices from the same evergreen plant. Nutmeg is the seed of the plant and mace is the outer covering of the seed.

[@vaibhav3946]

cilantro and coriander are actually two different thing but it looks similar. coriander is a medicine and useful for detox while cilantro is commercially growned cheap greens which people use for garnishing. in indian subcontitnet one can easily see cilantro and coriander available in store. coriander is always expensive.

Good point. We call (in UK) coriander for the plant and coriander seeds for grinding. But it also depends on context, if I say - I'm gonna chop coriander and parsley in salad, everybody understands I I'm talking about plant leaf. In eastern Europe and some of Central Asia people also use the word coriander, in South Asia of ex Soviet Union and Caucas (they call it kinza and coriander ad well) this green is widely used in many dishes, yum yum😊

Yeah, the "free" in freeway is in modern usage not the "free" as opposed to a toll road but "free from intersections". Also, highway has nothing to do with it being "higher" because there's an on-ramp. Highways were called highways hundreds of years ago, long before cars. There were highway robbers in Robin Hood's times. 😄

Hey all, this is IndianCy. I'll be adding on the Indian English equivalent of everything above. 1) Sweater is most common to my knowledge. 2) Well it's an eraser but very commonly called a rubber since you use it to rub out your pencil work. 3) Cucumber maybe the closest I can come to it. I know zucchuni is a different vegetable, but I've not seen it here before. So I guess an average Indian would call that a cucumber maybe? Coriander. 4) Pants in general; trousers refer to long-pants and not commonly used. Underwear is just called underwear. 5) Dustbin most commonly. 6) Toilet/Bathroom both are fine. Restroom is also acceptable in restaurants/airports etc. 7) Highway/ Super-highway. If anyone cares for this, I'll do it for other videos as well.

[@amandamandamands]

Just to let you know a cucumber is something different, when you look at them side by side you can see the difference (the top is different on a zucchini) but at first glance they do look the same.

[@martinwallace5734]

In Sydney, we also say "expressway" - or we used to. A highway is just a regular main road; a freeway or expressway has no intersections, just on and off ramps. A toll road is one which you have to pay to use. Personally, I never used to hear "motorway" in Australia, but some freeways / toll roads are designated with an "M", as in "M1", "M4" etc. and are called "motorways" by at least some people nowadays.

Maybe this is just my anecdotal experience, but in the US trousers is typically used by older people to refer to causal pants that aren’t for work. Like chinos or corduroys, and sometimes used to refer to more formal pants. I’ve also never heard anyone younger than my grandparents say it causally.

I think the term "highway" is pulled all the way up from ancient times as a main road that connected towns/cities within a kingdom. Some of them were used exclusively by royalty, thus called Kings Highway, a somewhat common street name in many cities.

Can is short for canister and it doesn't specifically have to be metal. Also in the US, some people use "bin" for recycling, like "Go toss this in the recycling bin."

[@rebekahyi7387]

I’m from the USA (southern US to be more specific) we call those “pants” “pants” too, but more specifically though, we call them “jeans.” We call formal pants “trousers” or “dress pants” or “slacks” (like the ones that you would wear with a suit or a tux)

[@TheCriminalViolin]

I was thinking specifically too when I saw it, and thought "Jeans" at first, since that is the specific type of pants pictured. But in general all pants are called such if they go at least 3/4 of the way down your legs. Just pants. It's only when we get specific that we change the term used to jeans, slacks, khakis, cargo pants, etc. And of course, "work pants" exists too, however, that is half way between fully general and truly specific, which probably would confuse newbies at first. Work pants usually entailing khakis, slacks & jeans, the first two being more formal business attire, the latter being more for laboring jobs like construction, landscaping & the like.

[@pebbleslynnbitches]

Same! From SC lol there was a few I was like um we use some of those in the south still lol 😂

[@vianjelos]

Slacks are usually used to refer to uniform pants...like dickies type of pants that are part of school uniforms or work uniforms..trousers are formal wear as are dress pants but I think dress pants are usually worn with just button downs where as trousers are part of an actual suit including the jacker. Basically you wear pants or jeans(if denim) on your days off, you wear dress pants to church and you wear trousers on speacial occasions like weddings.

[@sirbratholomew2743]

Fun videos, thanks! US here. In my time across the US I find regional uses can vary quite a bit. Pants - General use. (e.g. puts some pants on) Trousers - Tailored/good fit or work/organization (e.g. Military trousers). Will find the word used more frequently in wealthier settings. Slacks - Usually formal/business style of pants. Additionally, materials sometimes matter pending on who you talk to. Trash can or trash bin, Trash container or dumpster, or universally garbage (e.g. take out the garbage or can you take this to the garbage) Restroom is a bathroom without the bath. Toilet is sometimes used when someone is in a hurry, possibly walking funny. Also, the picture had multiple units of what we call yernals. Highway likely stemmed from old English. Likely having to do with roads being raised for drainage, and were likely of higher quality. Additionally, better roads allowed for better speeds possibly influencing the name. In my general experience, "highways" are between towns and state driven (tolls exist in some states); while "freeways" are mostly used as an alternative name for the interstate highways ran by the federal government. Motorways I believe were used in specific situations I can't recall of. It is a big place though, I'm sure there a more to add :)

[@epicotakucherry5280]

In my experience in the US, trousers are a specific type of pants. Not every pair of pants are trousers. Fancier pants are, like slacks (I consider slacks and trousers to be essentially completely the same thing). The sort of pants you wear to interviews or weedings or something like that. Jeans are not trousers. Khaki's might be, but usually aren't. Shorts are not. Fancier pants are trousers.

[@coast2coast00]

@Eliza From Canada, but trousers is what my mom would call dress pants. Like what a woman would wear to an office job(normally black or dark blue). Can't think of ever hearing a man say "trousers" here.

[@epicotakucherry5280]

@Eliza I see a lot of casual and informal khakis so they don't typically register as formal enough for trousers for me. Maybe the kind you'd wear for a uniform would (for example, they're required at Einstein Bros Bagels), but not the kind college guys (particularly frat boys) usually wear (baggy, huge, extra pockets, usually shorts) or preppy kids (also shorts, but tighter and better fit) wear literally all the time. I don't think I'd ever seen so much khaki in my life until I started attending college.

[@epicotakucherry5280]

@Eliza That's what I'm referring to. I think I just mistyped so I'll fix that. I mean I don't really consider khaki's to be trousers either. They're too casual in most of the forms I've seen them (ie shorts).
