what's the difference between 怕 and 害怕? I still don't get it. They probably mean the same thing, so how are they used differently?

British speakers use the word "university" in coloquial speech much like Americans use the word "college" . For example, a Brit might say "Are you going to university today?" Americans would probably say "Are you going to school today" , even when referring to a college/university. Interestingly, this might be an indicator of Americans' views on education.
