[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] So far has American drifted from British English. Nappy means diaper. [/quote] British and American English started drifting apart hundreds of years ago and have evolved independently of each other since then. The word diaper predates nappy by a long shot. In any case, nappy is much more commonly used as an adjective in reference to hair texture in the US than as a noun, meaning a diaper. [/quote] +1 [/quote]
