The American equivalent to the "sorry" you're used to is, at least in the Midwest, "oop" or sometimes more like "ope" depending on accent. It's more of an utterance than a word but it means the same thing.
- OJFord 6y agoI'm not denying it expressing the same, but I would precede my 'sorry' with the same utterance. (And sometimes it's followed by an 'alright?', which is practically a C21 howdoyoudo.)
