Different usage...

English is the official language of Fiji, but it varies from American English in small usages. I'm not sure how much of this is British English, Australian English or uniquely Fijian English. In any case I've assembled a list of these small variants. None of them seem like much, but it adds up to a bit of disoriented.

As I learned from posting to this vary blog "choking" means to "financially solicit", not to throttle somebody with your hands until they cant breath.

Others include...

In Fiji a "parking lot" is called a "carpark"
Food is for "take away" not "to go"
You go on a "bushwalk" not a "hike"
Things are in "heaps" not "piles" (the hole's only known natural enemy)
Said heap is usually of "rubbish", not "garbage" or "trash"
You buy your ticket as a "return" not "round trip"
You use a "brush cutter" not a "weed whacker"
Your car has a "boot" and a "bonnet" not a "trunk" and "hood"
Your house has a "veranda" not a "porch"
You would wear a "vest" on a summer day, not a "tank top"
You put your groceries in a "trolley" not a "shopping cart"
A store has "trading hours" not "opening hours"
You find out when you're on the desk by looking at the "roster" not the "schedule"
You get "time-in-lieu" instead of "comp-time"
And you buy your liquor by the "nip" not the "shot"
"Cheap" in Fiji seems to imply only "inexpensive" and not "inexpensive and therefore of poor quality" as it does in the US.

Now I'm not saying that either usage is better, or correct. And I realize that there are shades of meanings, garbage and trash aren't really the same things. And I'm not even saying that these other uses are ubiquitous in Fiji. They're all just things I've noticed.
