I know Filipino english is far different from UK english. .there is an amazing variety of spelling , meaning,pronunciation, etc.

I know these differences can be both difficult to comprehend and confounding when trying to learn the language.

When i visited UK last year, i had a culture shock.(is there language shock?)I was specifically shocked and amazed on how they say things and also the meaning:

1. Pantene- in the tv advert it was pronounced as pan ten
2. Backside- butt
3. Top up- as i understood it its like eload or prepaid
4. Take away- take out pala
5.Rubbish- trash or garbage
6.Trainers- sneakers or rubber shoes
7.Cupboard- any closet in the house
8. car boot sale- its like garage sale
9. Chemist- drugstore
10. Pharmacy- local doctor
11. Cinema- movie theater
12. Gum- glue
13.Holiday- vacation
14.Lift- elevator
15. Pram- like a big stroller

I know, as i embrace this new life and culture, marami pa kong kakaining bigas...
