[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yay! My kid is one of the crumbs ready to be snatched up by the rest. Props to OP for the rare inclusion of the word [b]“hoover”[/b] in a sentence, at least in the US.[/quote] There are many international parents on here. It is quite popular[/quote] Uh, it’s an American vacuum company founded in 1908 in Ohio. Why do you think it’s use is international?[/quote] It every British mystery novel that I’ve read seems to use the term hoovering for vacuuming.[/quote] But that doesn’t change that the word is based on an American brand vacuum cleaner. It is not a foreign word. [/quote]
