Faucet

[m-dono.livejournal.com]

I know this'll sound annoying, but forgive me because I'm slow.
Why does Russia carry around a faucet? I think I've seen it before in the scanlations, but I can't remember. And try as I  might to go through, I ended up with fruitless results. Does anyone know? Most of my friends have been wondering as well.

Erh sorry, my English fails.

[etherealtsuki.livejournal.com]

It's not wrong, depending on what English you're using. Americans call them faucets though.

And we English types say 'tap', so between us we manage to confuse everyone XD;

Oh, I get it, I´ll use faucet since American English was the one I learned. Thank you both for pointing it out ^-^.

lmao! I've always used the term tap as well... and I'm Canadian... so therefore, it's a Canadian thing too! :D

[moriyama-umi.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes we Americans reserve 'tap' for that thing beer comes out of XD

Add to that we Americans still call it tap water from the faucet^.^ We just love to confuse people

Ahahaha, this is true!

Fuck yeah, we rock for confusing the rest of the world with our mixed up terminology and non-metric system! \o

Ah lol, this entire argument reminds me of my life story:

A long time ago, I moved from a British school to an American School. this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v79/SDevil1212/Hetalia/rub.png) happened to me, and I didn't fully understand until I moved back from the American school to a British school, and wondered why the hell everyone was asking for a condom.

Upon asking questions, I was enlightened.

Oh, the joys of globalization~

Well, in America, we call them faucets. We only call them taps if it like for beer in a bar....

[t3nsa1.livejournal.com]

Oi! some of us Americans refer to water from the tap. We do call it tap water just to confuse people more^.^

I've always been saying 'spigot.' >_>;;

in all rights what dose it matter what we call a water fixture

[dramaelf.livejournal.com]

Spigot is the right term for the outdoor fixture.
Tap or faucets for the Kitchen fixture
Faucets for the bathroom sink and shower

Re: in all rights what dose it matter what we call a water fixture

[dramaelf.livejournal.com]

I meant bath but oh well.

[redstars.livejournal.com]

I say "tap" and "faucet" both, and I'm Canadian! xD
