American English vs English English IV

Round 4

Fall vs Autumn












Some topicality to the blog at last. The time of year is right for this post. It's a trender for sure.

In the USA, this time of year is called FALL, and you can see why. It's when leaves fall from trees right? And when people fall over when they slip on the fuckers after they've been lying on the ground for ages and gone all mulchy and almost become part of the pavement/sidewalk.

In the UK it's called AUTUMN, and I can't think of a single reason why.

America has this one wrapped up, which is exactly what you need to be doing at this time of year. Brrrrrr.

USA 2.5  UK 1.5
