  1. whinge is when your moaning all of the time and being annoying, like nagging. you say it with a short i.

    garage, is where you fill your car up with petrol. or its a room, where you store your bikes and lawn moers, and stuff, garden tools, things that you dont want cluttering and ruining your house you would put into your garage.

    :)


  2. Whinge - said like WIND but with a ING instead lol.

    Garage - we have them but it is either a place to park your car outside your home or a place to get a car repaired etc.

    A gas station is typically called a Petrol station although they do sell Diesel, biofuel (sometimes) and natural gas (sometimes)  

  3. whinge is pronounced winj (with a short i)

    and a garage (short a's) is where we put our cars

    (or what we park our cars outside of, cos the garage is so full of rubbish), or where the car goes to be fixed (the mechanic's in US?) and we call gas stations petrol stations.

  4. Whinge with a short i.

    I use garage to mean both a gas station and somewhere to park your car (joined onto your house).
