What are you talking about? That ginger girl is like a freaking hemorrhoid⊠sheâs obnoxiously British. đ
I love the fact that U.S đșđČ girls are wearing white shirts and the U.K đŹđ§ girls are wearing black shirts
I've never seen anyone on YT comments using 'um' when referring to the USA, it's always been 'us' and normally 'uk' not 'gb' as we try to include all 4 parts of the United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Cheers.
Hi guys, Lauren here đŹđ§ I was so happy to be back filming at World Friends! I was trying so hard to think of a word for windbreaker, it was cagoule! Not sure if anyone still uses this word or not but there you gođ
Nice to see you back , Lauren đŹđ§đ
Hii Lauren! So glad that you and Christina are back!! Love y'all xD
Cagoule used to a common term in the 70's. Waterproof coated synthetic fabrics were new so a new word for the lightweight hooded tops they made from it helped define a new product . Kayakers still use the term, shortened to cag, but it's a French word, not Inuit.
I reckon it would just be a waterproof now, or a windproof if it doesn't stop you getting wet.
A boiler suit was for crawling inside boilers to maintain them. Also what overalls, or coveralls, would look like in the UK. Think a jump suit in was originally for parachuting.
A waist coat only reaches down to your waist.
@@ethelmini oooh thanks for the info! I used to call it a cagoule when I was really young so I wasnât sure if people still used it so thank you!
In case you didn't know, the term (rain) mac comes from the Scottish inventor Charles Macintosh.
Of rubberised fabric, rather than the garment.
Iâm pretty sure the âjumpsuitâ term started with the fact that in WWII paratroopers trained in them, and they jump out of planes. Also, it kinda turned in to regular equipment when skydiving, or piloting planes, etc.
Nice to see Lauren back
How come there was no reaction to the "wife beater" in the thumbnail? đ€
(I'd love to know why it's called that.) đ§
6:20 The term âMacâ has now come to refer to almost any 3/4 length raincoat. The origin of the term, however, properly lies in the name of its Scottish inventor, Charles Macintosh, who in 1823 patented a coat made with the new waterproof fabric he had created.
Thanks for this info because I was so confused, I would call it a rain jacket in general lol
Hey guys đ Happy to learn some new words from Lauren and Hannah! Hope you guys enjoyed the video! -Christina đșđž

Jumpsuit actually comes from that parachuters use them.
Love the channel. You need some older people from the US. Terms have changed. We called jeans dungarees in the 60s and 70s
I am really enjoying watching these. It's a great way to get a glimpse into other cultures. I'm looking forward to seeing more of them.
It's crazy how Indian english is actually a mix of both. btw, dungaree comes from india, a hindi word called 'dungri'.
New Zealand English is a mix of both too. Officially, we use British English here but because of American media influence, American terms for things are becoming quite widespread.
I'm an American and it's strange listening to these American women half my age using different terms for things than I grew up with. I don't know if it's generational difference or regional differences (but FWIW, I have heard dungarees in the US, too). Their jumpsuit I would have called coveralls (distinguished from overalls in that overalls only have a bib over the upper body, while coveralls have sleeves and provide full coverage from neck to wrist to ankle). If I heard jumpsuit, I would think of a one-piece item of women's clothing combining upper body coverage with lower body coverage to the ankle (trousers, not a skirt). If I heard romper, I would expect the bottom to be above knee length. Rain boots, galoshes, overshoes (if designed to be worn over street shoes). The button-up shirt I would call an oxford, though the internet tells me that an oxford shirt is a specific type of button-up shirt. But since there are lot's a different styles of women's button-up shirts, I find oxford useful shorthand for the more menswear-style of button-up.
Apparently this line from the Beatle's Penny Lane has been sailing over these girls' head: "And the banker never wears a mac in the pouring rain, very strange."
its not generational. i m same age as the american women in the video and i have heard dungarees, overall/coverall and the jumpsuit and romper have same connotations. that thing is called a jumpsuit for women even on online retailers in US, also i have never found people specify shirt types unless defining dress code etc. that was just a shirt or blouse. i have definitely heard parka for windbreaker too
@Tuxedo Junction, I feel like there are similarities more between British English to Australian English than American. Similarly with Australia to New Zealand English. American English I feel has the most individual word choices (in the actual word, like trousers vs pants) but also in the spelling of words (like color vs colour). Also, I'm from the U.S.
The mac does indeed come from Macintosh long before the computer Macintosh. It was a very popular British raincoat manufacturer.
Charles Macintosh (no K) in Glasgow and Thomas Hancock in Manchester developed and patented a method for using vulcanised rubber in clothing, allowing it to be both waterproof and flexible. Waterproofing garments with rubber is a very old idea, and has been linked to the pre-Colombian Aztecs, who used to coat clothing with latex.
FYI: :)
The origin of the term (rain) mac derived from the name of its Scottish inventor, Charles Macintosh.
It's technically an anorak right? Or am I a terrible Brit?
@@MrJoeshipley I can't tell, I'm Austrian. đ Funny tho, because we call it Anorak (or Regenjacke) as well đ
@@lapoppii4081 Huh wonder where that term originated.
@@lapoppii4081 apparently the term "anoraq" originated in Greenland if you're interested
5:59 Another name for these, one that I grew up with, is "galoshes."
Also, I grew up using "overalls" and "dungarees" interchangeably. But I grew up in the NY metro area in the 1970s, so đ€·ââïž
Waistcoat used to be a more common term in the US but largely fell out of use after the early 20 Century. Jumpsuit is often also referred to as a coveralls, which differs from overalls in that they cover all the body, including the arms and not just the legs and torso. Dungarees is a term that used to be used in the US Navy to refer to the utility uniform which was meant for wear when the individual was expected to engage in manual labor. It consisted of a cotton button-down shirt of lower quality and denim pants/trousers.
@Alexi marchenko I understand, but again, I have almost never heard an American refer to this piece as a waistcoat unless they were born in the first half of the 20th Century or unless they were very into men's fashion of said period. Perhaps there is a regional aspect as well that I am not familiar with, but I stand by my statement that the term has become antiquated.
@@SubFT Possibly regionally dependent? I learned the more formal version is a waistcoat, while the more casual styles are vests. I'm from the north east (NY, NJ) if that makes any difference. But I will agree, it's definitely more antiquated these days.
We wore jumpsuits aboard submarines, called them "poopie suits."
@@chuckwilliams6261 I remember them well. It seems it's become the underway uniform throughout the fleet.
Thank so much for all your wonderful videos! I really love them!
'Dungaree' was/is some kind of fabric traditionally manufactured in India. So, the term is used referring to the type of cloth/fabric (just like the term 'indigo') regardless of the kind of garment. 'Parka' would be another term for windbreaker, or just maybe 'anorak'...
'Wellingtons' leather boots are named after the Duke of Wellington. The popular term has to do with the shape type, not the material (rubber, plastic etc.), rainy weather or water repellant footwear in general.
'Jumpsuit' is related to parachutists and pilots who had to jump out of the plane...
Thank you!
The "mac" in rain mac actually comes from Mackintosh. :) It's a Scottish name afterall so makes sense that it'd have that name in the UK. And a jumpsuit is named after skydivers' clothes, I'm assuming after the military, similar to bomber jacket which was a literal bomber's jacket in planes.
My grandparents called denim jeans dungarees and Iâm old enough to be your grandfather. In other words, itâs a very old fashioned term in the US.
The Norwegian word for the dungarees pictured in the video is "snekkerbukse", which translates as "carpenter's trousers". Presumably, carpenters wore them a lot.
In the US we have a version called carpenter pants. They're made of either denim or heavy twill, and have loops on the sides to slide your hammer into.
Australians also refer to the 1915 WW1 snowball recruitment march in south east Queensland which was called the March of the Dungarees
In the US, Wellington boots are a specific type of pull-on boots, usually leather. They are considered work boots. The rubber boots are not Wellington boots. They are mud boots or barn boots. The suit is called a cover-all for the obvious reason.
As a Canadian, I call these items overalls, a windbreaker or shell or outer-shell, a top or poplin (blouse is considered old-fashioned here), thrift store, a tank top with spaghetti straps or cami, a vest, rubber boots, a raincoat, coveralls (if worn by janitors or mechanics) and jumpsuit (if it is for fashion and not professional purposes) and a romper here is like a short jumpsuit (no pants, but shorts).
Lovely School days, We like this group meeting, Happy to see the similes đ on their Faces.We feel you all our Class Mates.Imaginations, feeling, thinking.Thanks.
McIntosh was the Brit who first made rubberized cloth for outerwear. The apple variety was what the computer line was named after. IDK if there was any connection, but it is a common Scots surname.
well thank you for this information sir, i used to think Macintosh was named after american native tribe like apache or something like that.
It is also referenced in A Room With A View, written long before Mac computers existed!
Dungaree actually comes from the Hindi word dungri.
Dungarees are thought to have been named after Dongari Kapar, a harbourside village near Mumbai in India where a coarse, thick calico was manufactured. The Hindi name for this cloth was dungri. Along the way an extra syllable was added and "dungri" became "dungaree".
Hope it helps :)
Bungalow is another Hindi word we've adopted too, right?
@@MrJoeshipley absolutely right
@@MrJoeshipley Bungalow, Jungle, Juggernaut, Cummerbund, Bandana, and many more :)
@@PristinePerceptions yes that is the nature of the English language. Even in its infancy.
Dungarees is a term not used too often in the USA anymore, it was more popular in the 1960s and 1970s it would refer to jean pants made of the same material. They are still called blue jeans or more commonly just jeans.
I think jumpsuit was named after the suit that airplane/Air Force members would wear when they were on a mission and perhaps they would have to jump out of the airplane.
Yep, you are spot on. It was used in WW I by parachuters who jumped out of planes.
The word they were looking for is coveralls.
@@dolphmanity Yep it's coveralls. Jumpsuits are for pilots.
@@OvermannOnline I call the one piece outfits that inmates wear as prison jumpsuits. Do you call them coveralls?
Yes, it comes from Mackintosh which was an overcoat worn to protect your clothes from the rain. they were usually tan. I think Mackintosh was the name brand but became the regular name for that style coat.
In the US, a jumpsuit is, I thought, something that's regular wear but all one piece like that. Something fashionable. A one piece utility garment as shown I usual call "cover-alls".
Nice to see Lauren's back

The jumpsuit/boiler suit is called coveralls in Canada.
In the UK for Thrift Store we do say Second Hand Shop. And Goodwill is what we call a Charity Shop. The photo does look like a charity shop however.
In Canada we also have British spellings for words we also have the âuâ in like colour or favourite or labour or favour or neighbour or behaviour etc
5:36 no, we do. I've definitely heard it called a waistcoat before in America. Not so much in every day conversation, vest is far more common in that situation. But if you go to a men's shop to buy a suit, they'll often call these waistcoats. So its in a term in the US as well.
5:40 another term sometimes used in the US is galoshes.
Here in Philippines we say WAISTCOAT as well
Bruce đșđž here. Love this channel and all the people on it. Definitely have heard waistcoat in US. I canât speak for womenâs clothing but have heard it used in menâs formalwear shops, when renting a tuxedo. Also I thought in the UK đŹđ§ you guys would say âWES-kutâ although that may be regional, perhaps?
I've heard waistcoat in reference to really old clothing, like revolutionary Era or in Jane Austin novels.
Spanish words (Spain):
Dungarees - Peto
Waterproof Jacket - cortavientos
Shirt - camisa (hombre) / blusa (mujer)
Charity shop - tienda de segunda mano
Vest top - top
Waistcoat - chaleco
Wellies - botas de agua / Katiuskas
Mac - abrigo impermeable/ chubasquero
Boilersuit - mono
Gracias por las traducciones- katiuskas- Âżes Ă©sta una palabra vasca?
@@bsh28209 Katiuska es rusa. Es el nombre del fabricante.
Thumb up for digging deeper this time! đ
In the U.S. we also have the term galoshes for waterproof boots. I thought that mac was short for mackintosh for the yellow waterproof jacket. The Apple Macintosh is named after the green Macintosh type of apples, used in cooking. I thought that the waistcoat was a tailoring term because formal coats were long, and waistcoats were cut at the waist. Whereas vests were in a 3 piece suit and are a thinner inner garment under the jacket, and sleeveless padded jackets became vests. Jumpsuit came from parachuting jumpsuits (as in the all over suit that you wear for jumping out of an airplane) from WWII, later popular with celebrities and in fashion.
But macintosh apples are red
Coveralls in Canada typically, spaghetti strap camisole, blouse typically is a frilly button down, the other is a button down dress shirt.
Yup, or workhual as well Cause I'm also Canadian guessing depends on which part of Canada I guess.
Seeing these videos really makes my day! Lauren and Christina always have great chemistry, and I also enjoyed the new friends đ Iâm from the USA (northeast Georgia), and what the Americans in the video called a âjumpsuitâ Iâve always heard and said âcoverallsâ for that item. I guess maybe it depends on where youâre from since the US is so large. Anyway, thanks for another great video guys! đ
I've heard both, I feel like mechanics or someone getting dirty (artists?) would say "coveralls" vs where I think the "jumpsuit" originated was from the Air-force, and paratroopers. Since they literally "jumped" out of aircraft lol
We French đŠâŹđ„ call this [une combinaison]
The jumpsuit is actually refered to the Airforce Army suit when they jump out of the plane
We Germans use a lot of English words differently.
The JumpSuit, we call Overall
The Overall without arms we don't call it Overall because it doesn't cover the arms and it is not overall....
@@larsradtke4097 Very interesting. That means we could talk and be discussing two different things.
@@anndeecosita3586 sure there are thing
Oldtimer -
an old person
For a German, a classic car
Beamer
BMW
For a German a projector đœïž

The âJumpsuitâ shown is called Coverall which is used for working in. The actual Jumpsuit is the one piece suit worn by Elvis thatâs for fashion that came out probably in the â70s. Iâve seen old fashion catalogs that had Jumpsuits. The one shown is definitely a Coverall.
Hello~ Hannah here! đŹđ§ I had so much fun filming with everyone đ„° I loved some of Christina and Callie's explanations haha đ hope you all enjoy watching! đ
remember, Christina invented jumpsuit đ
Welcome Hannah love your accent and your hair color đ
Which part of the UK are you from?
Welcome. Loved it, so much fun.
So this topic is mostly likely :
Americans đșđžâŹ vs Bristish đŹđ§âŹ
Good to see Lauren back
As French đ«đ· I woud side with the Americans, their English is actually more easier to learn and to speak.
We đŠâŹđ„ say :
1:55 : [une salopette, une bretelle]
2:40 : [un coupe-vent]
3:00 : [une chemise]
3:40 (not sure) : [un magasin d'occasion]
I would say "second hand shop" for US, makes a lot of sense
5:00 (English vocabularies is quite confused) : [débardeur]
5:30 : [un gilet], I've heard of waistcoat before
5:45 : [bottes imperméables] lol wellies
6:20 : [manteau imperméable]
7:00 : [une combinaison] boiler suit đ€Ł
Our French vocabulairy is clearly hands down in my view. That's just my opinion
In the USA we would say second hand shop only is the used goods arenât being sold to help the less fortunate. When the store is being run by a non profit agency like Goodwill or the Salvation Army then we call it a thrift shop. The word thrifty in English means cheap.
Wait, isn't _salope_ a bad word in French? Salopette sounds dirty hehe I wonder where the word _salope_ came from. I studied French in secondary school and uni so it's been a quick sec
Eventually??
Do you mean 'actually'.
@@alistairt7544 Nope at all.
Long sleeved canvas jump suits are more practical than "overalls". Jump suits actually cover you. In the summer, a black jumpsuit, soaked every 45-60 minutes can keep you cool in 110 (41C). White absorbs less heat, but black radiates more heat. Canvas is much tougher than skin. Wear leather or kevlar gloves if you are doing yard work, and make sure you cover your head- hat or helmet, depending on what you are doing.
It was fun as alwaysđđđđ
Lauren is backâ„ïž
Do you know why it was fun ? Because there was nobody attacking anybody else . When one of them would realise their version was different , she would say her version was the funny one , instead of making fun of the other ones . At this day and time with so much hate online , itâs refreshing to watch people just having good fun .
I was just watching the series Inventing Anna on Netflix and when Anna is in jail they refer to her one piece outfit as jumpsuit. So yes jumpsuit is def a word we use in the US. I tend to say that more than coveralls.
The duo is finally back . Love you guys
It's called a "windbreaker" because it's not heavy enough to wear in the winter when it's actually cold out, but in the spring and fall, when it's windy, you may not want to go out in just shirtsleeves, so you wear a windbreaker; it's just enough to keep the wind from going right through your shirt and making you cold. This is why windbreakers are usually made from non-porous material, so that the wind can't go through them like it would woven cotton.
And yes, some thrift shops are run by charitable organizations (most notably, the Salvation Army), but others are operated by for-profit companies. Opinions are divided on exactly how to categorize the most famous one, Goodwill; technically it's non-profit, but it pays a lot of wages to a lot of people.
Educated Americans have heard of waistcoats, because they occasionally show up in eighteenth-century literature. But I didn't know what the term meant until Lawrence Brown put it in one of his "Lost in the Pond" videos. The term has not been used in America for a VERY long time. I think this is one of those oddball situations in which British English is actually more linguistically conservative than American English; which is not how it usually goes, with these terminology differences (apart from Webster's spelling reforms).
Goodwill is probably the most widespread second hand shop in the US, but it is very specifically NOT a charity shop. Goodwill is a private company, not a charity, but most people assume it is a charity, and Goodwill purposely attempts to make people think they are a non profit.
Goodwill is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. They are indeed a charity. They consistently receive the highest ratings from watchdog groups who rate charities based on several important factors, including a perfect score from several of those groups . I hope you will consider revising your false comment. I have no connection to Goodwill, but what you said is not true, and may discourage people from supporting charities like Goodwill.
Hey! Lauren's back :-)
What they called a "jump suit" I have always called coveralls or if it is in worn to fly military aircraft it is known as a flight suit.
I love this group together! Just add Grace for the Australian perspective and it would be perfect
I know felt odd without Grace!
It's always fun to watch Lauren and Christina đ€Ł
I was waiting for Lauren and Christina and finally Lauren is hereee
It's good to see Lauren from the UK â€
Hi! I found why theyÂŽre called Macs! The Mackintosh or raincoat (abbreviated as mac) is a form of waterproof raincoat, first sold in 1824, made of rubberised fabric. The Mackintosh is named after its Scottish inventor Charles Macintosh, although many writers added a letter k. The variant spelling of "Mackintosh" is now standard. Google as all the answers!
Windbreaker sounds really convenient. A warm jacket breaks the cool wind in winter & protects you.
Such a confusing word. We could just call it a raincoat as well.
We French say un "Coupe vent"
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 Windbreakers donât always a hood where a raincoat would always have a hood
I would only use a windbreaker when itâs mildly cold. Like times itâs windy but you donât want to get too hot. Like maybe jogging or riding a bike
Dungaree actually comes from India where dungri was a course cloth used to make work clothes. Dungaree is the name of the fabric not end product. Dungaree was popular in the U.S. in the 50s, it referred to blue jeans. The thing in the photo is a bib overall in America, overalls and bib overalls are 2 very different items.
The "jumpsuit " is actually called coveralls. Usually mechanics or workers wear these.
Yes, agreed. Jumpsuit would be something more for style rather than for working in.
I love these linguistic differences videos. Fun to geek out on. I once looked through something like thirty old Sears catalogs to figure out when Americans started saying 'pants' rather than 'trousers'. (mid 1930's IIRC)
The word trouser never completely went away because my family says trouser socks for the socks that are worn with dress pants. But I suspect we Americans in some instances leaned more Latin languages usage because in Spanish itâs pantalones and French pantalon . Like vacaciones in Spanish and vacances in French. Our being a multi cultural land is why we use vacation where Brits say holiday.
@@anndeecosita3586 Yes, I remember older people saying trousers when I was a kid. It's still generally understood, though no longer the common term in the US. Pants was shortened from pantaloons, which originally came from Italian, as it turns out... I had to google it. :)
Yeah lauren is back
The jumpsiut is called "Overall" in Germany.
Since about the year 2000 in some parts of Australia no one ever wears or owns a raincoat, they just get wet if it happens to rain. Too much bother to deal with a coat for the rain. If it rains stay inside or travel by car direct to the door. For some folk, it feels kind of weird to have a coat for rain. Its hard to explain.
Iâm American. I heard Seattle is like that. But Iâm guessing people like this donât straighten their hair and donât wear clothes that take a long time to dry. Walking around in wet clothes all day isnât ideal.
Idk how these two have never heard the term waistcoat before. To be clear, I am american, born and raised here, have never been to the uk, and tbh don't know where I heard the term, and even more honestly didn't know it was the English counterpart to vest (I knew they call it something different since our under t shirt is their vest, but I didn't know what đ€·đŸ) but still, there are lots of things I've heard that idk where it came from or what it means... I'm just surprised is all...
Yeah no Iâve never heard that in my life and Iâm sure most of us havenât. Youâre the minority on this topic trust me đ
I am rather older than our hosts, but I definitely know the word waistcoat, albeit as an old fashioned term here in the US. I usually heard it pronounced as "weskit" by British people. Perhaps it is a regional thing there?
The Mackintosh raincoat was invented by Charles Macintosh (some people wrote it with a k and it stuck) while the Apple Macintosh computer is named after the.. apple cultivar McIntosh, from its discoverer John McIntosh.
"Mac" comes from Charles Macintosh, who patented a kind of waterproof fabric in 1823.
And "coat" the noun came before "coat" the verb, by many centuries!
These 4 are a great combo. I hope to see them all again in the future.
I am a simple man. I see Lauren, I click.
Christina is the most elegant one
up
I love lauren personality
Dungarees and boiler suits are 2 types of overall, there is also a long coat style of overall similar to a lab coat but in a darker colour. The name boiler suit comes from the fact they were originally worn by people cleaning out the boilers of steam engines. The name jumpsuit is from parachutists wearing them but, in the UK it is mainly used for female fashion items, they were popular in the 70s and 80s and appear to be making a comeback.
This 4 combo so wow! I love them all together âš
I love Christina and Lauren
Mackintosh is the original brand name of rubber-lined waterproof raincoats, named after the Scottish inventor, Charles Macintosh, who patented the process of sandwiching a thin layer of rubber between sturdy canvas that made them wearable (when they didn't melt in the heat, anyway). While the Mackintosh brand still exists, nearly 200 years after founding, in UK English it's been genericized for a specific type of raincoat. (Personally, I prefer dusters.)
To me (American), what they called "overalls" I would specifically call bib overalls, and I associate them with working on a farm because they go over the clothes you don't want in the muck and mud, in addition to being a kid thing. "Dungarees" in the US is a somewhat uncommon alternate word for jeans. What they called a jumpsuit or boiler suit I'd call coveralls, because they're what you wear to avoid getting grime and gunk and grease on your clothes or anywhere besides your face, hands, and boots. They cover all. A "jumpsuit" is a kind of outfit that's just one piece, similar to coveralls, but meant to be fashionable for daily wear, and it's considered casual or business casual, depending on cut and fabric.
In india we say both 'color' and 'colour'. You dont get corrected if u write any of these, but i prefer 'colour' it just seems right..its because of the British influence on india..đand also when i was a kid i was taught 'colour' and not 'color' so i think that is the reason.. đ
Dungaree is not an Australian word ,it is actually an Indian word taken directly from Hindi without any changes.
Thought it must be, is it exactly the same sort of garment? For men or women?
@@ethelmini It comes from "Dongri", a port city near Mumbai where this was first manufactured.
@@ethelmini Yes ,it was manufactured at a place called Dongri in India ,Brits took it back home and spelled it as Dungaree.
Dungarees is a term practically unknown in New Zealand, however when I learned the Maori word for Jeans (Denim Trousers) is tÄngari (there is no 'D' in Maori), I knew immediately where it had been derived from in the days of early European settlement.
The wind jacket could be called a puffer jacket because its sort of puffy in Australia.
You might hear dungarees in the southern US. Itâs more old fashioned though and is probably not common knowledge to know what it is
im obsessed with this channel and with the battles
Welcome back Lauren UK đŹđ§ WE USA đșđž N UK fans missed u hey Christina
I believe the word dungaree is anglo-indian in origin, derived from Hindi.
Rainboots... the ones you showed looked like poop boots or sh*t kickers. I grew up on a farm in the US đșđž and we used them when walking through the animal pastors. Colorful rainboots are rainboots in my mind. Or rain shoes. We called them a ton of different names in my family cause we moved a bit.
Rainboots, rainshoes, wet shoes, puddle jumpers/stompers
pasture* a pastor is the person. a pasture is the place.
Good episode. Iâm American and have never heard of a waist coast.
Overalls in the USA arenât just for children. A lot of my family members were farmers and the men wore denim overalls every day while working. If these ladies only associate them with kids they probably have never spent time in a rural area. Also we Americans call the skirt version of overalls a jumper which in the UK means sweater.
Also I think what we call those shops depends on where the proceeds go. If itâs run by a non profit organization that helps poor people then we call it a thrift shop.
The jumpsuit probably got its name in the USA from the military. I primarily associate them with military pilots/air crewmen because they wear this and these are the type of people who might have to jump out of airplanes.
Welcome to the new ladies from the UK and USA.
Consignment stores also means second hand shop.
@@CrimsonStigmata Consignment means the owner of the item is agreeing to let the owner of the shop sell their stuff in exchange for a percentage of sales. I have done this with some formal dresses I no longer wanted. However after some dresses didnât sell after so long in the store I went and retrieved them because they still belonged to me. However a second hand shop owner might be used things the owner bought outright and wouldnât owe anyone any money if it sells.
Interesting, what you describe as a "jumper", ie a skirt with a bib, that would be called a pinafore here in Australia, and I believe the UK also.
I've definitely heard waistcoat before. But usually just at the men's shop when I'm buying a suit. So maybe its not something women generally get exposed to in the US unless they're shopping for a suit for their husband or something.
@@stellamortis4088 I have heard pinafore before but I thought it was more like an âapronâ dress over another dress. Whereas a jumper isnât worn over a dress. But I found this in Wikipedia
Pinafores may be worn as a decorative garment and as a protective apron. A related term is pinafore dress (known as a jumper in American English), i.e. a sleeveless dress intended to be worn over a top or blouse.
The Mac is the Mackintosh and is named after its Scottish inventor Charles Macintosh :)
WELCOME BACK LAUREN
Welcome Callie and Hannah
When I was a kid waaaaaay back in the 70s (in the US), we called them jumpsuits... the girls' fashion version (what they are calling rompers here). The one in the picture I might also call coveralls... mostly if they were for work. A worker might wear coveralls, but if it were women's fashion, probably a romper or even pantsuit.
Dungarees in the USA is an old fashioned term for blue jeans, common in the US Navy until recently. I would call the janitor suit "coveralls." Maybe it's regional.
Back in the 1940s and early '50s in the US (before my time) children's jeans were often called dungarees until teens started wearing them, especially after James Dean made them supet cool in Rebel Without A Cause.
I was a submariner, yes dungarees was the manual work attire while ashore, including jeans. While at sea we always wore coveralls, we called "poopie suits."
Where Iâm from in the us we donât usually refer to it as a jumpsuit we just say coveralls. Different from overalls, to me jumpsuit is more specifically what prison inmates wear
Where I grew up (mostly Southern California) jumpsuits are worn by prisoners and also are part of womenâs fashion. I wear them. To me coveralls are work clothes for people like mechanics or handymen who do jobs where they get really dirty so they donât mess up their nice clothes.

In most of the U.S. a yellow raincoat with a hood is called a "slicker." A "jumpsuit" is made of nylon and worn when sky diving. The picture here is called "overalls" which workers wear .
Just about all the US military pilots and aircrew wear them. I primarily associate them with people who go up in airplanes
