When the British people call sweaters “jumpers” that is very cute to me

They also call turtlenecks a “Polo neck”— it goes back some years when polo players wore turtlenecks.

It's not a jumper unless it's standing on the edge of a tall building ready to go

I wish you would step back from that edge my friend

There's also the phrase, "Oompah, oompah, stick it up your jumper!"

Let me just throw on this jumpah

The time-honoured form of shoplifting, “shove it up yer jumper”

Oh I love this

And: You know that Americans call a different garment a "jumper," yes?

I can understand calling sneakers trainers but why would a sweater be called a jumper?

it really bothers me tbh

what's funny is that here in europe they teach us british english however more and more people speak in american english
