MOTORWAY VS EXPRESSWAY (English varieties) lesson 1

Which of these words do you use in everyday English?

Your choice of words should depend on the type of English you speak.

In British English this is called 'motorway' e.g.the speed limit on motorways should be enforced.

In American English this is called 'expressway' e.g.the speed limit on expressways should be enforced.

The difference here is vocabulary.

What is your view on this subject?

If 'expressway' is American English and 'motorway' is British English, should LAGOS-IBADAN EXPRESSWAY be used in newspapers, articles, or Journal Publish in Nigeria?
