just different lingo. around here "boosting" a car means to steal a car... LOL
....although I have heard jumper cables referred to as booster cables

pushing a bike to start it, is called "push start"... same with car

when I first went to England I was intrigued with ; windscreen, boot, roundabout, bonnet, car park, lorry and petrol. Many more like queue and "a rubber"... LOL
