    In my house we grew up with the words, ' front room', ' living room' , 'sitting room' for the living room. For the main bedroom, we called it the 'front bedroom' and for the spare rooms we called them the 'little back bedroom' and the 'big back bedroom'. I'm from Yorkshire though so that's what we may say here. We call the bannister the rail which surrounds the landing and the rail going up the stairs the ' hand rail'. I love the way language has evolved. Love your channel too.

    For those learning English, these are all acceptable names for most things in US English as well. Some are regional. Hob and conservatory are probably the only ones I generally don't hear in US English. Stovetop or stove and solarium are more common. The other may be laundry basket or hamper.

    As a Sri Lankan, my most favourite English accent is the one spoken in Sri Lanka during the 40s to the 70s. One can listen to the recordings of politicians from that period to know what it sounds like. I believe it to be a sub set of old Received Pronunciation given to us by the Brits.
