I would say either roll or would understand if you asked if I would like a bun:) and I would probably quote (as would most of my family😂) “Robinhood: Men in Tights”
“A roll is a roll, and a toll is a toll. If you don’t pay no toll, we don’t eat no roll.” This is how we ROLL here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! 😆👌🏻
The other names you mentioned are an unknown language to me! Haha
Also-on a serious note-this is SUCH an excellent point!♥️I have missed the mark many times in my attempts in sharing the gospel, bcs I assumed some things as “common knowledge”, but it is almost always a mistake. For years I have been involved w an in home church ministry, and even the term “fellowship” is one that makes people sort of look at me sideways. So now instead of Sunday fellowship I simply say church in the home. But THEN-what does that look like? What do they think I mean? Lots of thoughts here.:) The more simple and clear we are, and the less we assume, the better! Love it Dave. Thank you! I plan to share this with my friends, our church pastors. 😊
As someone who has moved around the UK I use most of the terms interchangeably except for ‘teacake’ for me that is a fruity bun, toasted and served with jam 😂

Could not agree more with the tea cake issue !!! 😂
Thank you Dave ... a very valuable reminder! ( BTW: it really is a tea-cake!)
It can’t be a tea cake!! But thanks for the encouragement
It is a bun. Thanks so much for this! Really useful.
I 100% agree with this!
...and also, I love the 5 quick tips 👍 so good!!
From research 🤓: Tea cake (4%) - the second most popular term in West Yorkshire (in the
30-39% group), with smaller minorities
(10-19%) using the term in Lancashire and Cumbria.
This is variance within a region :)
Love it! I’m sure we called it a tea cake in Leeds 🤔 I need to check with my parents 😂
it is a bun!
