The word anorak sparked some disagreement from readers:
I thought it was a waterproof jacket, a word more commonly used in the northeast than elsewhere in American [sic].
And another:
Despite what the esteemed intelligencia on Wikipedia might say, if you search online for anorak, you get coats/jackets. Getting to dictionary definitions, I see both, but the coat/jacket definition consistently comes first.
And not being located in Britain, I can’t really say if Wikipedia is just wrong, or if en_en and en_us are diverging, and in a thousand years we’ll be mutually incomprehensible.
