For example in USA they call: A [b]cushion[/b] is a [b]rail[/b]. A [b]snookered[/b] ball is [b]frozen[/b], whether the object ball is hidden or the cue ball is on the rail. A table [b]clearance[/b] is a [b]run out[/b]. Right-hand [b]side[/b] is right [b]english[/b]. A [b]double[/b] is a [b]bank[/b]. [b]Best of 17[/b] is a [b]race to 9[/b].
