Topic: So in addition to "washing up liquid", I found out the British also say...

Apocalypse Indy™ !bYobIzYIFE started this discussion 5 years ago #101,102

When they want to go into town or downtown, they say "go to the shops". And for on the weekend, they say "at the weekend". Say, shall we go to the shops for some washing up liquid at the weekend?

I would have to say "dish soap" is the ridiculous one here as modern dish washing detergents are not soap (soap is the salt of a fatty acid). "Washing-up liquid" both accurately describes the products use and is not mislabeling its contents.

Megaphones are loudhailers, police lineups are identity parades, crosswalks are zebra crossings, dish soap is washing-up liquid, and your 'two cents' is your two-penn'orth. That's all I can think of!

Never heard "at the weekend" always been "on the weekend". Go to the shops is accurate.

But nah. Give it a rest, Matt. An international man like you shouldn't be so amazed by minor dialect differences. Don't be such a small-town hillbilly.

I like recycling everything I can. Fill up jars/tins/bottles etc with washing up liquid and water, allow it to soak and rinse it. Toss it into the recycling and you can feel good knowing you're helping the planet B)

Doesn't he claim to be a linguist? Which is untrue of course, he claims to have a master's degree in languages, a completely separate field from linguistics, but yeah you'd think he wouldn't act like Bert when it comes to things like this.

Yes, actually. you said you studied midieval French, iirc. Linguistics is more the study of languages, not of any one language. Ugh, I'm not explaining this well. It's like saying you studied 14th century French culture so you're an anthropologist.

I see. If I'm wrong then I take that back. But you probably should have said that before pointing to your French degree as proof of your linguistics expertise. Otherwise it looks like yet another case of you justifying something post hoc...like how you apparently named your muse "the Muse".
