1. In
USA, "block" mean city block, 'hood, smallest area surrounded by streets.
2. In Central/Eastern Europe, Poland, post-DRG Germany &
France, "block" is fuckin' HUGE apartment bulding made of concrete panels, where people live like rats in cages. Worst muthafuckin
ghetto you can imagine.
1. Wudup man, what's the
news on the block
bro?
2. Oh shit, the elevator in our block is fucked up. We must
go downstairs through 20 floors.
