PDLM, I'm not disputing 'perambulator' is a correct English word. My point is, even in the UK today, we don't use this word. Which leads me to my second point. I am a British born Chinese, and my English is as native as it gets! I'm also a qualified CELTA teacher for your information. In my experience I would argue that not many native UK English speakers would know what the word 'perambulator' is, as it's simply not used or used very rarely.Originally Posted by PDLM:
