2. Also I think the Americans are better when they say " Shopping Cart" Instead of trolly, i mean shopping cart makes alot more sence.

3. Though i prefur to use footpath instead of sidewalk anyways makes much more sence.
1. I find it amusing hearing people saying 'mom.' I don't think it's suppost to an abbreviation of 'mother' because there's only one 'm' in 'mother.' So neither 'mum' nor 'mom' are abbreviations of 'mother.'

2. Shopping cart. What a strange language American is...

3. I prefer to use path.
