suit me.English girl:Really?Couldn't that be a bit embarrassing(難堪的)?
American girl:Embarrassing?Why?English girl:Well-that short skirt you're
wearing...American girl:Oh,my!But I wear panties(短襯褲)!In British English,
"pants"are undergarments.However,young people in Britain do sometimes say
"pants" for "trousers".
