Do you speak Indian English, Jamaican English, or... Malaysian English? There are so many "Englishes" in the world!
For example, I've heard that in Malaysian English, "bungalow" refers to a mansion or a luxuriously decorated house, whereas in US or UK, it refers to a small house or a cottage.
Another example... in Philippine English, a bathroom is refered to as "C.R. (Comfort Room)"... yeah, we can all understand why it is called this way ![]()
Tell me if you know any other interesting vocabs in different Englishes!!
piano, movies, reading, hiking, skiing, cooking, baking, violin, etc...
