British Homes
There are 22 million homes in Britain — big homes and small homes, old cottages
and new buildings, houses and flats. (Americans say "apartment" but British people
say "flat"). Many British people love old houses and these are often more expensive
than modern ones. They also love gardening and you will see gardens everywhere
you go: in towns, villages and out in the country.
Some are very small with just one tree and a few flowers. Others are enormous with
plenty of flowers and enough vegetables and fruit trees. Two third of the families in
Britain own their houses.
Millions of these houses are the same with two or three bedrooms and a bathroom
upstairs, dining-room and kitchen downstairs. To pay for their house, home owners
borrow money from a "building society" and pay back a little every month.
There are a great many different kinds of homes in Britain, but there are not enough!
It is often very difficult for young people to find a home when they want to start a
family. British homes are usually smaller than American homes. But like Americans
old people, young families and unmarried people do not usually live together.
The house of a person can tell a lot about the habits and features of life of its
owner. That is why traditional British homes are a reflection of the national
character of the people of this country.

What does their home say about the English? First of all, these people
appreciate peace and comfort. Because British homes are small in size, but
bright and comfortable. Most often they have only two floors. On the first
floor there is a living room, kitchen and cabinet, and on the second-the
master bedroom, bathroom and toilet.

The living room is the heart of the British home. There is usually a fireplace around which all the family members gather in the evening. Guests are also invited here for holidays. Some UK homes have two living rooms. One (more spacious) for a wide range of guests, and the other for family members and closest friends.
|
|
In the interior of a British house, as a rule, there are light shades. The English do not like to buy extra furniture, so their home has only everything you need. But there will certainly be soft deep chairs and a large sofa covered with a cozy blanket. It is something without which can not do any single resident of the UK.
|
|
I can notice, that despite a lot of modern English houses have a similar layout and belong to the same type of building, they are all very different. The English appreciate originality, so they are happy to paint the doors and Windows of their homes in the most interesting colors.
|
|
In front of each house is necessarily a garden in which the owners grow mainly flowers. Often residents of Great Britain plant climbing plants there, which then decorate the walls of their homes, forming a hedge.
|
|
Despite the fact that the English have a reputation for being closed people, on the large Windows of their homes you can rarely see thick curtains. And also the British are very hospitable and are happy to invite friends and acquaintances to their cozy homes.

Britaniyada 22 million uy bor - katta uylar va kichik uylar, eski kottejlar va yangi binolar, uylar va kvartiralar. (Amerikaliklar "kvartira" deyishadi, ammo inglizlar "kvartira" deyishadi). Ko'plab britaniyaliklar eski uylarni yaxshi ko'rishadi va ko'pincha zamonaviy uylarga qaraganda qimmatroq. Shuningdek, ular bog'dorchilikni yaxshi ko'radilar va siz qaerga borsangiz ham shaharlarda, qishloqlarda va qishloqlarda bog'larni ko'rasiz.
Ba'zilar faqat bitta daraxt va bir nechta gullar bilan juda kichikdir. Qolganlari mo'l-ko'l gullar va etarlicha sabzavot va mevali daraxtlarga ega. Britaniyadagi oilalarning uchdan ikki qismi o'z uylariga ega.
Bu uylarning millionlab qavatlari bir-biridan farqli o'laroq ikki yoki uchta yotoq xonasi va yuqori qavatdagi hammom, oshxona va oshxona pastki qavatda joylashgan. Uylarini to'lash uchun uy egalari "qurilish jamiyati" dan qarz olib, har oy ozgina to'lashadi.
Britaniyada juda ko'p turli xil turdagi uylar mavjud, ammo bu etarli emas! Yoshlar uchun oila qurish istagida uy topish ko'pincha qiyin kechadi. Britaniya uylari odatda Amerika uylariga qaraganda kichikroqdir. Ammo amerikaliklar kabi keksa yosh oilalar va turmush qurmaganlar odatda birga yashamaydilar.
Odamning uyi egasining odatlari va hayotining xususiyatlari haqida ko'p narsalarni aytib berishi mumkin. Shuning uchun an'anaviy Britaniya uylari bu mamlakat xalqlarining milliy xususiyatlarining aksidir.
Ularning uyi inglizlar haqida nima deydi? Avvalo, bu odamlar tinchlik va farovonlikni qadrlashadi. Chunki Britaniya uylari kichkina, ammo yorqin va qulay. Ko'pincha ular faqat ikkita qavatga ega. Birinchi qavatda yashash xonasi, oshxona va kabinet, ikkinchi qavatda yotoqxona, hammom va hojatxona joylashgan.
Yashash xonasi - bu Britaniya uyining yuragi. Odatda butun oila a'zolari kechqurun to'planadigan kamin bor. Mehmonlar bu erga dam olish uchun ham taklif qilinadi. Buyuk Britaniyaning ba'zi uylarida ikkita yashash xonasi mavjud. Biri (kengroq) keng doiradagi mehmonlar uchun, ikkinchisi oila a'zolari va eng yaqin do'stlari uchun.
Britaniya uyining ichki qismida, qoida tariqasida, engil soyalar mavjud. Inglizlarqo'shimcha mebel sotib olishni yoqtirmaydilar, shuning uchun ularning uyida faqatsizga kerak bo'lgan barcha narsalar mavjud. Ammo, albatta, yumshoq chuqur stullar va qulay adyol bilan qoplangan katta divan bo'ladi. Bu Buyuk Britaniyaning hech bir rezidenti qila olmaydigan narsadir.
Shuni payqashim mumkinki, zamonaviy ingliz uylarining aksariyati o'xshash tartibga ega va bir xil turdagi binoga tegishli bo'lsa ham, barchasi bir-biridan juda farq qiladi. Inglizlar o'ziga xoslikni qadrlashadi, shuning uchun ular o'z uylarining eshiklari va derazalarini eng qiziqarli ranglarda bo'yashdan mamnun.
Har bir uyning oldida albatta bog'lar bor, unda egalari asosan gullar etishtiradilar. Ko'pincha Buyuk Britaniyada yashovchilar u erda toqqa chiqadigan o'simliklarnio'stirishadi, keyinchalik ular o'z uylarining devorlarini bezatib, to'siqni hosil qilishadi.
Inglizlar yopiq odamlar sifatida tanilganiga qaramay, uylarining katta derazalarida kamdan-kam hollarda qalin pardalarni ko'rishingiz mumkin. Shuningdek, inglizlar juda mehmondo'st va do'stlari va tanishlari uchun qulay uylariga taklif qilishdan mamnun.
