Thread Name: BS: The New Anglo/American Dictionary
Subject: RE: BS: The New Anglo/American Dictionary

This is for the Anglo American dictionary? If "American" in this usage refers to the USA, some of those wouldn't work here. Most people wouldn't understand them. (Like pubic relating to taverns, for instance.)
