We mix "torch" and "flashlight" and call it a "torchlight"
we call it a pocketlight.

We say: "fire the light", "city fires", "fire is burning in the window", etc.

That's actually proper English, it's only fairly recently that you can use "while" in the past-tense formally.
That being said when I hear North Americans saying "whilst" I cringe; you might as well be using "thy" and "thou".
>>56495347
regardless of formality the word while is Old English, whilst is Middle English

whilst is still dumb though. What's next, meanwhilst instead of meanwhile?

I used to talk to a German guy who kept saying "torch". I thought he was retarded for the longest time until I learned Brits were too stupid to give flashlights a name. Instead they still reference fire on a stick. Dumb cunts.
