Crimson Wife Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I use them both. I use Fall with more frequency but Autumn is peppered throughout my conversations. :iagree: Grew up in New England, currently living in California.

Mabelen Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I've lived now about the same time in the US as in the UK. I use both but I am more likely to use fall if I am talking with Americans vs other expatriates who are more likely to follow/be familiar with British usage.

Lived there 22 years. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanceXToo Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Fall is what people tend to use around here (here being both when I lived in NY and here in PA). Of course, we know what Autumn means, but fall is just the more common word to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Crown Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Fall. Mencken thought 'fall' was the American word as opposed to the British 'autumn'; he also thought 'fall' was the superior word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
