Do We Speak The Same Language in the UK & US?

We moved to the UK five years ago and thought we’d understand most things as we speak the same language. But is the language the same? 

Do you know the difference between pants and trousers? We learned this and many other differences in some embarrassing ways. We have a good laugh at some of the differences and the cultural adjustments. 

Are there words that confuse you between cultures? Come share with us on our latest IG post or send us a DM (we read all the comments and messages) @laurentcollective.
