The UK and US terminology for crocheters is slightly different. It is easy to convert so don’t be afraid to try out a pattern if it is not in your native terminology!
All you need to do is to -1! For example UK treble = US double.
UK ttr= US dtr
UK ExDc= US ExSc (extended double/single crochet)
slip st and chain are the same in both UK and US terms.
Here is a handy chart to help you easily convert your crochet patterns:
The Melu crochet guide has lots of help and photo tutorials to help you with your crochet including: treble crochet double treble crochet and how to crab stitch
