People also wear "wifebeaters" but we don't expect them to beat their wives in them.

Also "laptop" is an american term. The rest of the world calls them something closer to "portable".

Only if you mean, "they sometimes use the american term".

Because otherwise the polish term is "komputer przenośny" (portable, movable, etc computer).
