There are no sidewalks in the UK, even more dystopian!
- microtonal 5mo agoDid you mean the US or is the joke wooshing on me? Edit: ah, because the word is pavement in British English :).
- JdeBP 5mo agoSort of. It's also footway when denoting the no-carriages part of a road that also has a carriageway. There's a whole complex terminology of footway, cycleway, bridleway, bridle path, footpath, cycle path, and carriageway. Even more fun: It's ever so slightly different in Scotland to England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. * https://legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1984/54/section/151 https://legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1984/54/section/151
