I have been trying to keep on lurking, but this topic (and Tricia's post) has got me out of lurkhood again.
In Singapore, we call that undershirt that Clark is wearing a "singlet" as well. According to the Webster's, "singlet" is a term for "undershirt" that's commonly used in UK English. I'm not surprised that in Singapore, we use the term "singlet" rather than "undershirt". After all, we do generally use UK terms rather than their US equivalent. I think the fact that Singapore was an ex-UK colony has something to do with this.
What's really surprising is that from this posts, I'm getting the impression from Labrat and Wendy that the term "singlet" is no longer used in UK anymore? Only at Tricia's post do I see the term "singlet" materialise. And she's from Australia. So...
I'm a little confused.
