    Brit - bum = your arse

    American - bum = homeless person

    A fanny is actually a woman's vagina. A lot of people seem to think it's the backside... NO, it's not.

    Actually, you can have grass, but it doesn't mean it's a lawn. A lawn is usually groomed fairly well ...

    And a backyard is still a backyard ... a garden means you have an array of flowers ... A lot of people have gardens in their front yard too.

    Brits have better epithets. You just don't hear enough words like "twat", "prat" and "wanker" over here in the US. We call people weak little things, like "jerk" or "dick".
