I'm English and I had trouble with that one
Although, saying that, I have a peculiarly mid-atlantic vocabulary and seem to think in American English a lot of the time -- this could be due to the intimate ties my town had with the locally stationed GI's during the Second World War or cultural influence from Cinema/Music/Books.
