We call snow peas “snoopies”. Many years ago, when I was doing my master’s, I was sitting a listening to a senior researcher in my field from Scotland. He was talking about his time in the field in Canada, and speaking of the large flocks of “snookies”. They were evidently large white migratory birds who flew north and south in enormous flocks. It took me almost an hour to realize that he was talking about snow geese. I told the story to my wife (then girlfriend), and “snoopies” were born the next stir fry that was made.
BTW, no criticism of the lovely Scots accent - there is not an accent that I do not like, from Canada to The Deep South or across the UK, India, Africa, or anywhere. None that I find objectionable, and none which sounds dumb to me. Possibly because I have a weird speech issue which ensures that I cannot speak any language without an accent, including both the languages in which I am fluent…
