British or American English? The word game
A flat in London is an apartment in New York, and British chips are American fries. Test yourself on ten everyday words.

US apartment
US elevator
US fries
US chips
US cookie
US pants
US vacation
US line
British and American English share almost all of their grammar and most of their words, but dozens of everyday things have different names on each side of the Atlantic.
Both are correct. What matters is to be consistent, and to know both so you understand everyone, from British TV series to American films.
