Flats



Today's helpful hint for Americans.

What you call apartments, we here in the British English world call flats.

This helpful hint was brought to you by Frenetic Cola proud sponsor of the 2007 World Cup of Ikebana.

Pretty nice flats. I think flats here are not considered very nice.

back home in Singapore...80%(almost) of the population lives in flats..the setbacks neighbours hardly talk to each other and it's extremely small...more suitable for rabbits!

I hope I'll for ever live in a house. Or at least in *un appartement au rez de chaussee avec jardin...

Most of time I call them apartments. But, like Space Nakji said, there are other times when "flat" is used.

Thank you for the daily vocabulary lesson!
