i guess it's more common for people around the west to call it soda and the east to call it pop. i forgot what the are division is on that.
Tired Hiker
I say soda but from now on I'm going to say pop because pop sounds cooler. I never thought of this and usually I'm on top of what's cool.
BOPRecruit 16

Born and raised up North (Michigan) it was strictly "pop".........I never heard one person say "soda". After moving here to the midwest, borderline South (Kentucky) it is "Soda"........I havn't heard one person call it "pop".
There is definetly a geographic border on this subject........southerners tend to stick to the "old ways".......they shun change. In the 50's they went to their local diner and ordered a Soda shake.......today they go to their diner and order a soda shake.........

Being British the term 'Soda' is very rarely used, the term 'pop' is used more commonly but has two different meanings:
Pop (Def #1) ~ Used to describe a genre of music that includes Britney Spears, Madonna, Busted etc, music that is popular.
Pop (Def #2) ~ A fizzy drink such as coke, lemonade etc.
So with that in mind i'd have to go for Pop (Def #2 that is).
stinkfist462
i hate both def. of pop.!!!
Veralidaine

GroundedAgain
it's pop--it always has been and it alwasy will be!!!! in noroth dakota at least. everybody i talk to dat ain't from norda koda doesn't even have the faintest idea of wat i'm talkin bout...and it don't rilly sound as gay as ya'll think it mite. i even admit dat is looks as if it would sound gay if you called it dat but it actually doesn't. ya jus yell out "hey can git a dolla fer a pop" and it sounds normal....at least up here
frootlooplucy
Pop = music (that I hate)
Soda = american word for...
Soft drink = fizzy drink made from carbonated water and who knows what else.
i.e. Soft drink is the correct word (in my mind).
movie_freak
Soda sounds better
Will
i know pop sounds bad
stinkfist462
yep... SODA!!!
Smallville
Do you call it Pop or Soda... or something else. If "Other," Specify.
It is Pop, by the way.
Fionnuala
Fizzy..or Coke, Spirit, Lilt etc..
Smallville
Fizzy? What the hell is this garbage?
Fionnuala
Fizzy drinks....or soft drinks..
Demarthl
... you americans and your words
BackFire
Soda where I live.
Some places it's also known as "Tonic"
Smallville
That is soda water, BackFire. That doesn't count. And all the Southern American people I am at basic with are calling it Soda, and making fun of me for calling it Pop.
BackFire
No, it's the term for soda in some places. My cousin will be pouring some coke and say "do you want some tonic?"
Smallville
I've never heard that before.
You learn something new everyday
Syren
Gah, I opted for pop, regression to my 4 year old days
But I tend to call it Fizzy now, or just refer to it as its brand name.
BackFire
yeah, i'd never heard of it either before I heard it for myself. I was like "what's tonic? Medicine?" And she started laughing at me
Syren
OMG, yes! Tonic is medicine, or it should be. Although, I used to serve mini bottles of tonic water as mixers when I worked in pubs
Ladyluck
haha i don't actually call it fizzy juice, just thought it was funny...i usually just call it by the brand name, if not then pop
Storm
Soda: soda or pop?
Syren
You are irrepressible Storm
Kagome2005
I call It Fizzy.
Jackie Malfoy

SnakeEyes
I always called it soda, but where i am it is called pop...
technically, everyone should call it by the official name: Soda-pop.
Flying High
fizzy drink
pop can also be your grandad
Kiu Dun
In Michigan you'll never hear anyone say soda unless there from out of state.
Syren
Soda-pop... *shudders as Britney appears from recesses of mind* fear
Morbid4Daniel
I think they both sound gay when people say it. I just call whatever it is a coke or pepsi or just "Drink"
cindy8219
