I call my trousers trousers and my pants pants

I call trousers trousers... or slacks.

Ah yes ... I remember this thread

Trousers are trousers, pants are underclothes that men wear, knickers are underclothes that ladies wear.

Fact

trousers are trousers and panties (under crackers) are knickers 

^^^^^^^^ this Sprouty 

I thought it was the yanks who called trousers pants.

Trousers are trousers.  Pants can be pants or knickers.

M&S chords from the deleted Stormwear range.

Cheese comes to mind 

Trousers are trousers - the clue is in the name

Trousers are trouzas NE peep heeya

Saz! I was thinkin you of all peeps would back me up  

Trousers are trousers and you wear pants underneath them.

But then pants are also known as underpants - is that an American thing? Either way, I'd be seen in public wearing trousers but never (accidents permitting) in my pants.

Thongs are Australian flipflops.

 There are similarities!

yep...   

& slacks are something my father wears

noooooo!  those were called ski pants when I was young...   & are called stirrup leggings to the youngsters today! 

So.......I'm in the minority then   my two brothers called them pants too. Allthough they are 9 and 10 years older than me 

I was young a long time before you Ditts

Trust me - they were slacks back in olden times

I remember them, but only just

I thought that calling trousers pants was an American thing?

YAY!! Cracks!! at least I got one vote 

I dunno now Veggie, I'm confuzzled 

awwww.... ta Rexie puds...   for the making me feel momentarily young again!  (s'ok... won't go to my head.... I have daughter next to me, she'll say something in a minute that will put me back in my 'ancient old bird' category! 

As long as you know what you mean Sprout then that's ok.


Mind you, mixing trousers up with pants could cause some comedy moments
