Honestly not meaning to offend you and I doubt you even care what I think, but this gets on my nerves to no end. Kit, pitch, fit, all of them. One of my biggest pet peeves.

I think most people so that as a snob move but I call just the shirt a jersey and a full uniform a kit. But I mean like they call their schedule fixtures. But if someone calls it a field, jersey, game, or whatever, it's not like I think they know less about soccer it's just what they call it. We didn't invent it so the terms are a little different and if you watch enough games and soccer shows you get accustomed to using these terms instead what may be more American.

Yeah, that makes sense. It's noticeable when someone is going out of their way to fit in every single British soccer buzz word into a conversation.
