View Full Version : Pop or soda? Generic42 10-01-2007, 03:30 AM Do you call it pop or soda, or soda pop? http://www.bwmaonline.com/Pepsi.JPG Om nom nom, carbonated goodness... brobie 10-01-2007, 03:41 AM I added "Coke" since people in the south call everything "coke" WindRunner 10-01-2007, 03:43 AM Yet somehow you erased my vote for soda in doing so - good thing. Put it in for coke, since apparently now I can't. xorgthezombie 10-01-2007, 03:47 AM Oh, soda all the way. Ska 10-01-2007, 04:06 AM If you ask for a "soda" a "pop" or a "soda pop" here in AU, all you'll get is blank stares and the person you asked thinking, "Stupid damn yank, wtf is he talkin bout?" foskasse 10-01-2007, 05:11 AM Here we call it cola.. Yep, very original a different i know.. Sunshine31 10-01-2007, 08:07 AM In the UK we would ask for a Coke or a Pepsi. indienestmonnom 10-01-2007, 08:14 AM In France we say "coca", even if it's a pepsi... thomas85 10-01-2007, 10:04 AM I use cola for everything what is labeled cola. particularly coca cola but in germany there is also existing "club cola", "afri cola" and others. pepsi is just pepsi. Suicidal 10-01-2007, 11:34 AM In the UK we would ask for a Coke or a Pepsi. Yeah, and soda is just fizzy water! masquer 10-01-2007, 11:43 AM I call it a solvent, good for rust cleansing thomas85 10-01-2007, 11:53 AM I call it a solvent, good for rust cleansing really? should I try it on my bike? :D ghetto bob 10-01-2007, 12:05 PM :stop This isn't Coke vs. Pepsi... :stop This is what do you call a carbonated flavored beverage which doesn't contain hops. brobies point was that in the southern US, everything is a "coke" orange, ginger ale, root beer, whatever, its all "a coke" thomas85 10-01-2007, 12:32 PM :stop This isn't Coke vs. Pepsi... :stop This is what do you call a carbonated flavored beverage which doesn't contain hops. brobies point was that in the southern US, everything is a "coke" orange, ginger ale, root beer, whatever, its all "a coke" I would use the word lemonade then. NimChief 10-01-2007, 01:07 PM in aus we just call it fizzy drink or soft drink. Sunshine31 10-01-2007, 01:23 PM :stop This isn't Coke vs. Pepsi... :stop This is what do you call a carbonated flavored beverage which doesn't contain hops. brobies point was that in the southern US, everything is a "coke" orange, ginger ale, root beer, whatever, its all "a coke" I do not think anyone believed it was Coke vs Pepsi. However Generic started this thread with a picture of a can of Pepsi and asked what everyone called it. In the UK we would call whatever the fizzy drink was by its name, so I responded as such. Suicidal is correct as well, because here soda, is just fizzy water. Maybe the thread is just aimed at the USA and I apologise if it was and should not have responded. Joedeuces124 10-01-2007, 07:25 PM Voted Soda But Id surely die before I drank a Pepsi but I love a Coke Luke 10-01-2007, 07:32 PM I'm from Holland, so I'll have to vote for coke. But now I don't get to vote for a drink :p hhmira 10-01-2007, 08:07 PM I call it "refrigerante" (in portuguese) Literal translation from brazilian portuguese to english for this kind of drink: soft drink.

Snail 10-01-2007, 08:17 PM coke all the way;) foskasse 10-01-2007, 08:26 PM I call it "refrigerante" (in portuguese) Literal translation from brazilian portuguese to english for this kind of drink: soft drink.
