British vs American English

 
Wow, a fantastic detailed analysis of the difference between British and American English!
 
e.g.
UK - Suspenders = a lady's garter belt, used to hold up stockings
US - Suspenders = a man's braces, used to hold up trousers
 
UK - pants = underpants
US - pants = trousers (derives from the french word pantalons)
 
Haha you want to be careful of the differences!
