Looks Theory

I know what a kilometer is and people in the US use grams and other metric stuff. It's a retarded stereotype.
The world actually used to use stuff like miles and pounds (imperial) until 200 years ago.

nah brah you guys are uncultured swines, yall niggas call a pavement a sidewalk

Pavement is a general term. Sidewalk is more specific.
Even @Papa Joe Stalin would agree

pave·ment
[ˈpāvm(ə)nt]
noun
pavement (noun) · pavements (plural noun)

1. any paved area or surface.
   • NORTH AMERICAN ENGLISH
     the hard surface of a road or street.
   • BRITISH ENGLISH
     a sidewalk.
   • geology
     a more or less horizontal expanse of bare rock.

a british guy explained it perfectly once, "you don't call a bridge a waterwalk"

@AsianBossLT he's from spain, pavement in used in the angolosphere, doubt they use it

You WALK on the SIDE of the road, hence sidewalk

Foreigners not complaining about American terms challenge (impossible)

@overeitherway I know, but I mean like he would at least logically see why it's called that in NA.

nah i'm just joking i don't actually have a problem with how americans speak, though one thing i noticed, online americans on tv, the media etc sounds fine if anything have one of the best accents but whenever i meet one irl it sounds so fucking weird, i guess i'm too accustom to hearing carribean dialects irl

These, we WOULD call a "pavement" or walkway


THIS is a SIDEWALK (Side of the street or road)

@overeitherway That's a false equivalency. You walk on the side, but you don't walk on water. Pavement to refer exclusively to the sidewalk doesn't make any sense.

Today I learned I'm from Spain. The more you know.

Sidewalk: Is referring to something very specific, like saying oatmeal instead of just cereal, or well, "hot cereal"

"huRR DuRR aMericAnz aRe sOOO dUmB and wEiRD!!!"

bro took it personally , dawg i don't actually care if you guys call it a sidewalk or not

@overeitherway I'm speaking in general, not you specifically
