ABOUT VACUUM vs HOOVER
My dear friend Mercedes, married to an Irish guy and living in Ireland for many years, told me about this point:
"I never say "hoover" because I think a Hoover type is a vacuum without a tube and pipes. And I personally prefer to use a
vacuum cleaner with a tube and pipes".
I would say:
"I am going to vacuum the living room now"
or, for example, "I vacuumed the hall yesterday"
or, for example, "I vacuumed the hall yesterday"
