In the same way that there are differences between Spanish spoken in Spain and Colombian Spanish, there are many differences between American and British English. A fanny pack conjures up quite a distinct image in Britain compared to the US. And innocently asking for a fag in New York might see you getting some rather strange looks. Awesome man! Or is it?!

De la misma manera que existen diferencias entre el español de España y el español de Colombia, hay varias diferencias entre el inglés que se usa en los EE.UU. y el inglés británico.
'Fanny pack' es algo muy inocente en Estados Unidos pero en Gran Bretaña, suena un poco raro. Y una persona de Londres pidiendo un 'fag' en Nueva York recibiría una sorpresa. ¡No sería tan 'awesome'! ¡O tal vez sí, sería magnífico!
