Difference between sweets & candy?
I'm trying to translate a phrase but I don't know how to say it in Spanish... I need to translate food preferences and this is what I got:
PLEASE CHECK WHAT CONSUMER PREFERS Foods: Candy What? _____________________ Sweets other than candy. What?__________________ The underlined phrase is my little trouble, I've heard that in Spanish they use the word "dulce" for sweets and candy. Does anyone know how could I translate this? Thank you |
Normally sweets and candy are synonymous, but in this case, I think candy is referring to dulces, golosinas, caramelos, chocolates etc, and sweets would be like cake, cookies and maybe sweetened drinks. En este caso sweets other than candy serían cualquier comestible que sea dulce (que contenga mucho azúcar), pero que no sea un dulce (candy). I hope I´ve explained myself :)
So: Dulces/golosinas: ¿Cuáles? ______________ Otras comidas endulzadas ¿Cuáles? _______________ |
To me, sweets and candy are the same thing, so I'm not sure what they're talking about there.

Sure I'm not an english expert, but I have found this
http://separatedbyacommonlanguage.bl...nd-sweets.html Then it would be Comidas: Caramelos: ¿Cuáles? _____________________ Otro tipo de dulces/golosinas. ¿Cuáles?__________________ Hope that helps :D |
