Strange, is it not, how a word can mean different things in english speaking countries, two come to mind....fag and shag. in the UK "shag" is not used in polite circles, it has a sexual connotation, and "fag" is slang ,for a cigarette. Now, to our American cousins,"fag" is short for faggot,which we all know was the word used before the more polite term "gay" came along. Now we in the UK just love to eat faggots, tho not the"pink" version of the word, tis said to be far too salty for English tastes! far more suited to the australian pallet I think. I am curious to know what "shag2 means in America.
