Yep, troppo's a new one on me. Mind you,I'm a Londoner but i was always learning new words and phrases from aussie workmates, like dooner/doona (?)

[MsButterflyStrong]

LOL how funny!! yes things we take for granted must sound so funny to other nationalities!!!

[jewelchic]

@MsButterflyStrong I think it is because we grow up with American TV and we become accustomed to their little expressions, whereas they do not get to see our local shows xxx

[TheNightRomer]

Also a 'British' expression. "Got on like a house on fire".

[jewelchic]

@TheNightRomer AHA-that makes sense xxx

[PTClaire1978]

We have a lot of those expressions in the UK too but when I lived in the US I.got the same reaction from the Americans sometimes! Hilarious!

[jewelchic]

@PTClaire1978 It IS funny isn't it-things we think are just totally NORMAL!!! LOL xxx

[MsButterflyStrong]

@PTClaire1978 Yes Claire! I remember being in the states and I would "yum as" about food etc and they thought I was saying "yum ass" or arse!! hahaha
