Why do Americans call crisps "chips"? Chips are something else.

@TryingtoLava Because we should. Why do Americans leave the "u" out?

@Zaphod42 No, I correctly call those chips. What you call chips I correctly call crisps. I work in a shop that sells crisps but we don't sell chips, nor do we get asked for chips.

How the English could invent a language and then get so many words wrong is beyond me 🫢 @BijouPleasurette

@Zaphod42 We are not wrong, it's our language. It's Americans who are wrong.
