"Root" in Aussie-speak has a certain sexual connotation.
Now they really can get confusing! In particular their transparent
sticky tape -- which in England is called by the trade name
"cellotape" -- uses a different trade name: "durex" which we use to
refer to condoms (or rubbers to you Americans).
Not only confusing in the shops, but the thought of getting the two
mixed up sound painful too.
