These are the views of an American, born and raised, on the East Coast.
And @EDJ, no, the nationality varies. For example, a first option (toilet) is American, and another (rubber) is British.

DK, You know all my answers
OH BTW its colors
You'd be suprised,some american's picked British things and the spelling really doesn't matter.
Vacation or Holiday? These aren't the same thing?
Ice pop or Popsicle? These are two different things here, I'm not sure which one you're referencing.
Vacation and Holiday do actually mean the same thing.
By Vacation and Holiday I mean something most people do during summer e.g Go to a different country
I don't mean Christmas, Easter etc
As for Ice pop or Popsicle, I googled those and both came up with the same images, I basically mean this :
Flashlight or Torch? Depends. Are you talking about http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/simi … t-icon.png (a flashlight), or http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/artu … h-icon.png (a torch)?
By torch or flashlight, I mean the electrical thing. Most British people would call this a torch
Chips or french fries? (Depends. Two different things in America. If you're referring to flat, crunchy, fried potatoes: chips. If you're referring to fried potatoes in more of a stick shape: french fries.)
The food in question is this :
Most of the times when going to Mc Donalds I hear people ordering 'Chips' and getting this.
I know they are two different things in America but that's why its called American or British, because In Britain, what you would call 'Chips' we call 'Crisps'
Shovel or Spade? These are actually two different things...
Not particularly You wouldn't hear the word 'shovel' in Britain, because I asked about this once and got strange looks so when I said 'That thing you use to dig ground' they all laughed and told me it was called a spade.
Again, this is British or American, so ofc in America it would be different things...
I will also upload pictures next to the questions if I can to help out so people don't get confused

Vacation and Holiday have different meanings. Vacation can be use to take a long break away at anytime, but holiday usually refers to a day in history in which we celebrate.
Ex.: You don't call Summer a holiday. You go away for Summer vacation. You celebrate Christmas/etc.. You go for the Holidays.
Holiday is a noun, not a verb.

If i go away i call it a holiday, if i break up from school im on a holiday, it beens a special time or day

Like I said this actually isn't true if you are in Britain.
Vacation in America often means a break away, which also applies for Holiday in Britain.
Holiday, if you look in a dictionary is both a noun and a verb. At least it is in the British dictionary.
