Be careful who you tell in the U.K. that you have to go pants shopping—across the pond, "pants" means "underwear." When you're talking about jeans and khakis, you should call them "trousers."

Avoid Using In: The U.K., Ireland

在英国你如果和人家说你要去买pants（美国英语：长裤），那意思是你要买“内裤”。如果你要买的是牛仔裤或卡其裤这种裤子，你应该用trousers这个词。
