Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

[(Anonymous)]

So just now I was commenting to my coworker on how I wish the AC was at Antarctic levels of cold and then I wondered, what does the northern hemisphere say when describing cold weather with the poles?

Re: Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

[(Anonymous)]

I personally never have used the poles to describe coldness, nor have I heard anyone do that.

Though, I did automatically read Antarctic levels as Artic levels, for some reason. Thinking about it, I probably would use Artic.

(I'm in the Northern Hemisphere).

Re: Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

I'm in the northern hemisphere and I'd say Artic. I think it's because the cold weather we experience probably comes down from the Artic region so its sometines a factual statement as well as sometimes a similie. If that makes sense?

Re: Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

Northern Hemispherean (???)

Around here (Western Europe), we mostly use the "it's colder than the North Pole" phrase or variants of it.

Re: Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

[(Anonymous)]

I'd probably say arctic. The meteorologists on the news talk about arctic air masses and things, so "arctic" is associated wuth cold.

Re: Antarctic vs Artic cultural phrases question

[(Anonymous)]

I... would probably say Arctic, but would mentally interpret Antarctic to be even colder.
