I don’t think “correct” really applies here. “Original” maybe.
Let’s just go with “soda pop” being the formal name. What I’m saying is the shortened forms are secondary.
The formal name would be carbonated beverage
That is a superset. Beer is a carbonated beverage but definitely not pop. Pellegrino also.
Hmm, true
