Soda? Cola? Pop? What do you say? Any other regional words that set you apart?
Question submitted by Gladys.
Born in Queens, and raised in Jersey so I've just known it as "soda."
Two interesting regional phrases I know that set me apart from the rest of the country:
1) "regular coffee"- when you order a regular coffee in NYC, you're gonna get coffee with milk. if you order a regular coffee anywhere else in the country, the waitress is gonna bring you over a cup of black coffee.
2) people in the NY area wait "on line." people not around from these parts wait "in line."
