This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I don't think "correct" really applies here. "Original" maybe.

Let's just go with "soda pop" being the formal name. What I'm saying is the shortened forms are secondary.

The formal name would be carbonated beverage

That is a superset. Beer is a carbonated beverage but definitely not pop. Pellegrino also.
