I'm in South Africa.
In one of our indigenous languages, Afrikaans, we call pantyhose 'sykouse'.
Sy = silk
Kouse = socks
So pantyhose = silk socks

there you can see, that the white Africans have a strong connection to the Netherlands ( where their ancestors came from )

In Latvian = zeÄ·ubikses or zeÄ·bikses, or zeÄ·enes
All means same thing
2 words together:
zeÄ·es = stockings
bikses = trousers or pants

Tights come from the word tight..
Pantyhose is the propper word realy..
the yanks use pantyhose and the brits use tights....both are the same thing and not what the yanks think
the yanks think pantyhose are sheer nylon and tights are thicker...thats wrong...
tights and pantyhose means the same thing
I'm glad you cleared that up. B/C I actually got in a disagreement about that with someone not too long ago. I explained that 'tights' and 'pantyhose' are the same thing. The whole interpretation of "tights are thicker" thing started in America I think, b/c in dance studios they refer to their attire as tights or leotards which are opaque mostly. So, I think that's where some of the confusion comes from.

Here in the USA we call them pantyhose. Although, I cringe when I hear some people over here that call pantyhose "stockings". Uh, that drives me crazy!! *lol*
