AmE versus BrE, parte 5

Bom dia a todos! Uma vez mais trago para vocês as principais diferenças entre o Inglês Americano e o Britânico no que diz respeito ao vocabulário. Para aqueles que estão estudando pra valer, é sempre bom lembrar que NÃO estou colocando a tradução das palavras: pra isso vocês podem utilizar os dicionários/tradutores disponíveis no Painel Direito do site...
Bom estudo!
