>Petrol ( or more correctly petrolium)
Actually, it would even more correctly be 'petroleum.'
Because 'Gas' is short for gasoline, the liquid by-product of distilling
crude oil.
BTW, Motor oil is petroleum, too. Does that mean if you pour motor oil into
your fuel tank the engine will run and produce power, too?
Oh yeah...and 'bonnet' is something you put on a baby's head to protect it
from the sun. and 'boot' is something you do when you start a computer
and/or put on your foot when you want to walk through snow.
You say tomato, I say tomato, etc..

PS..then again..'hood' is something you put over your head, too, and 'trunk'
is an elephant's nose. go figure.
