Usage notes

 * While bum is most common in the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, in Canada, bum is mainly used when speaking to young children, as in Everyone please sit on your bum and we'll read a story. In the United States, bum is not often used in this sense (though this may vary from dialect to dialect) except in conscious imitation of British English. The term is the most common term in North America except in professional contexts such as medical, legal, and scientific where  is generally used or, , etc. for the muscles specifically.  is often used in sports medicine and bodybuilding.  (originally a dialectal variant of ) is considered vulgar in North America, whereas , , and  are considered to be non-specific terms.
