Perturbatio:
RagTag: People use it occasionally for a laught but not seriously.
Also no one seems to have mentioned that the U.S. puts Z in IZE words whereas most English ones are (currently) using S i.e ISE (but not all just to confuse things).
Some other vital ones:
Fanny (US. = body part you sit on; UK = female parts) So don't say "does my fanny look big in this".
Bum (US = Tramp/Homeless person; UK = body part you sit on)
Bummer (US = oh no dude; UK = same, but also gay person, well sorta, and related words like bumming i.e activity gays get up to) btw some older people in the U.K. still say gay when they mean happy.
There hopefully you'll never get confused when using those in a game.
Oh yeah that pasted in big list has some real dodgy ones in it that just aren't right!
awaken someone (to) knock up
Yeah I saw that one and laughed. To knock someone up is TO GET THEM PREGNANT lol.RagTag: People use it occasionally for a laught but not seriously.
