Different dialects of English also use regional terms for confections: ˇ In Britain, Ireland and some Commonwealth countries, "sweets", or "sweeties", particularly in Scotland (sweeties resembles the Scottish Gaelic word suiteis in both pronunciation and meaning) and among children. ˇ In Australia and New Zealand, "lollies". ˇ In North America, "candy" |
