Different Languages Across the World

Language is the way in which people communicate. This can be oral or written, and it differs depending on the place that you are. The same word can have various meanings in different parts of the world. According to Leonardo De Valoes, language impacts daily lives of members of any race, creed, and region of the world. Today we take a look at words that countries around the globe often use. But the words communicate something different in other parts of the world.

Language That will Make you Feel Embarrassed!

Language in Australia

We will start with the most interesting one. In most parts of the country, people know that the word pants mean that you are talking about underwear or if you think that we are being vulgar the word means undergarments. But not all people think that the word refers to underwear because in other parts of the world this simply means that you are talking about trousers or jeans.

If you thought that this was weird then wait until you hear this. Every Australian knows that when you say rubber you will be referring to a small stationary that is used to erase pencil mistakes. But Americans disagree and the only rubber that they know is a condom. This is one article that will help you to master a certain trend of talking before you actually visit a place right?

Australian language is not totally innocent too. Slippers are always that or called flops and no one could have imagined what Australians have decided to call them. Thongs are a common word used in Australia to mean flops, and don’t think that you will probably hear this word once or twice, but rather almost every time.

The reason being that Australia is known to be a hot country and the most common footwear here are thongs. Whereas in most parts of the world thongs are a tiny string underwear.  So get used to the strange talk.
