We have lots of names for the same techniques. We don't have to learn phrases like "Thank you very much sensai may I have another" or "Karate brings peace and harmony throughout the galaxy" in japanese/korean/whatever like you guys do.

Nope, AK's customs, sayings, and all are good ole' US vernacular type English. We give a Chinese salut of respect, but then we just say 'howdy'.

 

FSTKD and Arnis is the same way (at least here). A simple bow shows respect, but other than that all the hollerin', cussin' and sweatin' gets done in English. I looked up some of the Korean terms once, and quickly decided I didn't want to impress anyone enough to learn them. Besides, they'd all have thought I'd lost it if I started useing Korean.
