   Not when it comes to floors (storeys)! In British English, the ground   
   floor is called the ground floor, and the first floor is upstairs (with   
   the second floor, if there is one, above that, and so on); in American   
   English, the ground floor is the first floor, upstairs is the second   
   floor, and so on.
