Pants thing is sooo useful. Like life-saving useful. Haha. Are you using imperial units a lot in daily life? I thought UK switched to metric system as well!

Hong Kong has taken after the British culture a lot! Excludes drinking culture 🍷😂 (Can I use “take after” in this case😅?)

@M Jay Yeah the pants one is definitely a must know! 🤣 Yes that's correct, we tend to use mostly imperial with a little bit of the metric system.

@윤성한Bob Very similar! Australia and New Zealand are part of the comman wealth/ British empire, that's why they have the British flag within their own flags.

@진지충 I understand that, for the most part Western countries use the metric system The British use a combination of the imperial system and metric both can used here and we will understand what it means.

@권용국YongKukKweon权容国 You should ask your English friend when you next speak to them "Why do English put pot noodle in a sandwich" He will get it, it's definitely a very British thing to do.
