Answer 2

I think you will find different areas of the county use pop and/or soda. If a person was raised in my town, Springfield Mo. it's pop. from St.Louis it's soda. This is a trend across the country. larger city's use soda and smaller one under 100,000 use pop. Now also the areas east and west use soda. Now go in and re-do your question on population and Midwest, East, West, North or South. You will get a really good responses. Even worth knowing in reference to language development.
