I don't know, but there is a type of Indonesian soy sauce called Ketjap Manis.

- Where does the word 'ketchup' even come from?
Or "The Old Bill." Or "Bobbie"

- In America you guys say cops but we say police.
Or coppers if you're cockney :file:
Your answer lies in here I think.

But cookies and biscuits are completely differnet things because we have cookies and biscuits.
- lochnessmonster:
- cookies are biscuits.
In what sense?

- The whole pants being trousers confuses me.
Just in the sense that if it's mentioned in American programmes and I'm not quite paying attention, if it's said pants as in trousers, I always take it for underwear, which doesn't fit the context.

We do but in America they don't say biscuits. They're all cookies.

I don't think I lot of people say "pants" as undies. I mean, I've never heard it. On the rare occasion I'll hear word 'underpants'. But generally it's just underwear, panties, boxers, briefs, thongs, etc. Underwear mostly.
- Bloodraine:
- Whereas I understand 'pants' in America can mean underwear too.
What do you consider 'biscuits' then?

Biscuits aren't sweet here.

Because the things you guys call 'cookies' are called biscuits over here. As in, "choc chip biscuits", for example.
