During my trip to Canada I stayed in a coastal city – Vancouver – where I heard these words a lot. Being born and raised in a Brazilian inland city – Blumenau – the definition of those words were overlapping inside my head; I couldn’t understand their differences and neither could some native Canadians. When I asked them some would stop to think about it and start discussing with each other whether a specific place is a quay or harbour, for instance.
Now, after researching (i.e. googling) for a while, I’m here to share with you what I’ve found.
Ready?
You have probably noticed that I love to watch words fighting.
