So come on Americans, which Britishisms do you use in your speech?


Autumn is British???
cheers - only in email replies to the folks in our UK office, but I assume they laugh at that.
wonky - never knew that's a Britishism but ok
bloody - very rarely
Round about - never but Google directions always use it to describe a rotary - there's tons of rotaries in Massachusetts
