*As you can see from the video the hoover is the vacuum cleaner. However, in British
English it’s quite common to say hoovering and not vacuuming (or vacuum cleaning).
This is because Hoover were one of the first popular brands of vacuum cleaners and
the brand name became the everyday name for the object, and the verb.
