On a previous post, I listed some terminology differences between the US and Australia. I decided to continue this list with another 10...
1. Pickup trucks are utes (short for utility vehicle)
2. Yield signs are giveway signs
3. Take out food is take away food
4. A shopping cart is a trolley
5. French fries are chips, as in "fish and chips"
6. Wheat bread is wholemeal
7. A receipt is a tax invoice
8. Cookies are biscuits, or biccies
9. A pharmacy is a chemist
10. A windshield is a windscreen
