What is the non-US word for brig?

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The second entry states, "A (chiefly US) term for a naval military prison or jail on a ship or navy base." - but gives no indication of what the non-US term would be. At any rate, I believe this to be inaccurate, since I've found other sources that say it's a chiefly British term, and I can't find any sources at all that give any name other than "brig" for this type of room, no matter what the nationality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.45.133.142 (talk) 14:43, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
