  1. A pram is short for perambulator. They were originally the old fashion style with the cane basket covered by a curved hood. The baby was lying down. The ones that sit the baby upright and facing forward, those are called strollers. Strollers are collapsible but prams are usually not, although with so much new tech these days, you can probably buy a pram that’s collapsible.

  3. Cyclones/hurricanes require hot air, so cold regions won’t have them.

  4. Jumping Jacks, when I was a kid, were plastic beans that had a weight inside them, which made them jump around a lot.

  5. A Milkbar actually sells milkshakes, ice creams, sweets and hot tea/coffee as well as chocolates. Convenience stores in Australia are much bigger and more of an American idea.

  6. In Australia, we would say we’ve got chooks in the backyard. We also say the Loo.

  8. The reason the US is the odd one out so much is because English came from England and so the other four countries were all basically British settlements.

  9.  @danielkelly8870  Yeah, but give or take, that’s why I said basically. English is from England. Ireland learned English not American.
