Fantastic Fringe!/Brilliant Bangs!

If you are not from or resident in the UK or USA, do you say "fringe" or "bangs"?

@jemmesedi Here in the , we say “bangs”. “Fringe” means at the edge in Philippine English.

@youronlyone
That makes sense, as one would expect English in the Philippines to be closer to US English than British English.

Anyway, whatever term we use, her hair looks wonderful!

@jemmesedi Yep. Although Philippine English incorporated Australian and British English as well, overtime (especially now), it is closer to American English.

I still remember when floors were following British English where the “ground floor” is different from the “first floor”.

Although for the past 10 to 20 years, we found a way to merge the British and American ways: we split the “ground floor" into “upper ground” and “lower ground”. I guess it's unique in Philippine English. LOL.

But yeah! Perfect hair (and great girl group).

I love it when English is enriched like this!

Perhaps we should both have a talk with our stylists...
