Hi. I would like to learn about "traffic delay", "traffic jam", "traffic backup" in everyday use. I think these also depends on the dialects of English: British, American, Australian, South African. I mainly learn AE and BrE. Would someone please explain them, with examples? What are the basic differences between them?
1. A: Why are you late?
B: There was a traffic delay\traffic backup\traffic jam.
