Brongs call it "fizzy drink".

Technically those are gummies.

Honestly, the disappearance of a more British Canada is a bit sad. And it gets worse every day that more Africans are allowed in.

Technically, candies is wrong here. The correct word would be candy since it refers to candy as a mass.

To Aussies, Kiwis and Bongs these are "chips".
To Leafs and Burgers they are "fries".

>>85571022
Interesting, you must be a zoomer.
>>85571037
Yes they are gummies. Gummies are a type of candy/sweet/lolly. Picrel are hard or boiled candies/sweets/lollies.
>>
>>85571060
I see, so your saying "candy" refers to the category and there is no need to pluralise it?
>>
>>85571087
Yes. You would only make it plural if you were counting.

Aussies, Kiwis and Bongs know these as "scones".
Burgers call them "biscuits". Not sure what Leafs call them.

Scone is sometimes used in America but it is very specific in its usage. They have to be sweet and have to be not circular. If they are not both of these things, it's a biscuit.
>>
>>85570999
"Lollies" refers specifically to lollypops or any type of sucker candy. Speaking of I would say "candy" over "candies" 90% of the time though "sweets" wouldn't be wrong to me either, just less commonly used.

>>85571338
Savory scones exist in America too but they're less popular and usually triangles, yeah. If they're circular and plain (no veggies or cheese or anything) they're biscuits.
>>
>>85571043
True, in Australia, we call these "potato chips", as opposed to these>>85571065 which are "hot chips". It's a bit confusing because hot chips are also made of potato.
>>
>>85570999
>Aussies and Kiwis call these "lollies".
That's dumb. Lollies specifically refers to lollipops. That's like southerners calling every soda a Coke.
>>
>>85571060
There are multiple different kind of candies in the mass of candy. It's like saying fish to refer to a group of a singular type of fish, but fishes when there's multiple types of fish in the group.
>>
>>85570999
No we call those gummies.
>>
>>85571026
No, its called pop
>>
>>85571065
No, these are fries, chips are the chunky ones
>>
>>85570999
Candy comes from a Sanskrit word for a clump of sugar.
Lollies and sweets are baby talk. Why do Anglos do baby talk?

Gummies are a type of lolly/candy/sweet.

Pop is your granddad.
>>85571697
Thin chips, thick chips makes no difference. Hot chips are chips.
>>85571557
>Lollies specifically refers to lollipops.
In the USA yes. In Australia and NZ lollies is a general term that refers to all candy. Lollipops, hard boiled lollies or suckers, gummies, caramels, marshmallows, semi-soft fondant confectionaries like musk sticks (picrel) and bananas are all classified as lollies. A shop that specialises in selling these things in Australia or NZ is a lolly shop, as opposed to a candy store or a sweet shop.

woah, I wanna try some musk sticks now

We call thin chips fries. Proper chips are chunky
