I am trying to create a list of words that are mostly unique for the UK market so that my sites will hopefully link up with UK users looking for these keywords. So this is where I need help I want suggestions of commonly used english words that are not as popular for the US market for example Solicitor widely used in the UK but less popular in the US. Any sugestions please help.
 
estate agent / realtor - althoug becoming less useful by the day...
quid
grub
booze
tap / faucet
petrol / gas
 
EasyShop - Great question! I have been meaning to ask the same question.

Mat - THANK YOU!!! Wikipedia ROCKS!
 
And don't forget the difference between American and English spelling in such words as:

organize and organise

collectible and collectable

favorite and favourite

humor and humour
 
oh "color" without a "U" illiterate buffoons :rolleyes:


Thanks for the link mat
 
And then there's gas in the US being petrol over here - in Ireland great gas is lots of fun. :)
 
I registered colourphotoprinter.com and a few other UK variants. I think google will treat color and colour the same so probably worth doing
