Hi BBC, I like your question and answer programme. I have a question too; Americans use different words from the British such as eggplant and aubergine, or fall and autumn. Could you make a summary? Thanks.

Yang Li and Dan look at the different names for shops in America and Britain in the fourth of our programmes focussing on American vocabulary.
The first one looked at food and drink; the second one at clothes; and the third one at items around the house.
This week listen to our guests Daniel and Rogan compare vocubulary from the two countries.
Do you know which of these words are American and which ones you'd hear in the UK?
main street and high street
Sweets or candy?
movie theatre and cinema
newspaper store and newsagents
pharmacist and chemist
barber shop and hairdresser
candy store and sweet shop
sales clerk and shop assistant
Listen to the programme to find out.
