In British English, a flat is what an American would understand as an “apartment.” British renters will likely refer to any single residence in a building with other such residences as a flat. To the British renter, a flat can have any number of rooms.

Flat is used in British English, and apartment is used in North American English. In large parts of Canada and in or near New York City, it is used for a residence in a multi-unit building; this meaning is the one given by OALD, and is a synonym of the British word flat.

pick-up truck

The name “pick up” was derived from its use as a vehicle to haul and transport heavy loads. The first popular pickup truck was the Ford Model T Runabout with a pickup body. This vehicle was factory produced by Henry Ford back in 1925. Today, trucks can carry much greater loads due to the evolution of technology.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) – the crash test guys – said in their 2019 testing that passengers in modern pickup trucks are at higher risk of injury or death than drivers in car accidents.
