Ha ha ha. I knew the British term "nappies" but didn't realize it came from napkin.

And when I'm at a nice restaurant, I put my napkin in my lap . . . or the waiter does.

Well, I think I need to change my baby's . . . diaper!

Hi Natasha
I don't think I would like to put a napkin around my neck, especially one that has been used. What you call daipers are what we call napkins. urgh!

*I have decided to become your proof reader.

Yes, I think, Eddy, please tell us, serviette IS often used in England. I lived in London and it was the word to sue* use.

Let me see now. It would depend on where you lived in Lonod. I am from there and If you happened to ask for a serviette in an East End establishment, they would probably die laughing, where it would be quite acceptable to ask in the West End of London.

It doesn't go anywhere. The OP posted it incorrectly and so have you I think. When I click on servilletA, it goes to the dictionary.

I know, but it was introduced in Scotland from France, and then spread to the rest of the U. K. I have heard this words many times since I came here 10 years ago, and it is in the dictionary, so it is also English as well now. (Del latín servire, y este probablemente del etrusco)
