I think you mean cookie.
You see because biscuit refers to a savory bun that is eaten with breakfast, while cookie refers to a small sweet baked good eaten as desert.
Just wanted to correct you, we don't want to sound like Br*tish people do we?
if you don't want to sound British stop speaking English
是同志
A biscuit isn't a bun wtf are you on about? It's name literally means Baked Twice, it's a crisp little thing. Fucking anglo can't even speak your own language that you stole from the french
Sorry I don't take language advice from a group of people who thought naming a city "Liver-pool" was a good idea. That's fucking disgusting bro.
at least it's not a slur or the hard-r
Yes America sucks too
Was that what we were arguing about?
Idk, I was just mocking Brits, for shits and giggles.
Ignore me.
biscuit comes from bis-cuitt, Middle English words meaning, "butt" and "food".
Huh, I always thought it came from the old french https://www.etymonline.com/word/biscuit. Seems like there's a few different etymological narratives going around https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/inspire-me/the-history-of-the-biscuit/
I learn something every day
I'm joking :)
Thank you for clarifying ♥️
They could be an Aussie or Kiwi. Biscuit for a savory bun is just etymologically inconsistent.
