I have read a few posts pertaining to roundabouts. Where I come from we call them traffic circles. When we lived in New England; they were called rotaries.
Also in New England, what I call turn signals were called directionals. (Signage in a sharp turn on my street even said, "Check your directionals" in case your turn signal was still on after the turn.)
I put my groceries in a shopping cart but my girlfriend in Woonsocket, RI, called it a carriage.
I call winter headgear a tobbagan. My yankee husband says it a tuque. Wassup with that??
I say I am getting ready to do....my sister-in-law in Tennessee says she's fixing too....bless her heart.
My list can go on and on. I say spaghetti sauce; you say gravy...

My husband was just telling me this morning that our new GPS was calling the roundabouts, rotaries. Must be our new "gal" is from England
