This is especially for adult/teacher classes...Younger students will not have heard of some of these...feel free to adapt and change the lesson to suit your students.

Good idea for a teacher's workshop.

However, I'm going to change the word 'correct' in the instructions to 'term more commonly used in the U.S.'

Implying that Konglish is wrong is like saying 'bloke' is an incorrect term for 'guy.'

They're just local variations on a theme :-)

This is just a worksheet I quickly made to do in one of my teachers classes. They really enjoyed it and they honestly didn't know that some of the terms were "incorrect".
