@Serena_Dean isn't dorm an American word? Are there British equivalents?

@starshas We do use the word dorm in the UK, but in this case we call them Halls (short for Halls of Residence). When I have heard the word dorm used in the UK is when I was at school we went for a school trip to an activity centre, and the rooms that we stayed in there were called dorms.
