    There isnt jack shit difference in the colloquial sense, except for the fact that one word people generally know, and the other people dont. If you were telling this to a native english speaker I wouldnt care, but to an ESL person I feel the need to step in and say “Yeah no, everyone will understand what you mean with the phrasing you chose, the person correcting you is being hyper literal”

      1- they didn’t mention being ESL until after the response, so congratulations on the foresight of other’s hindsight.

      2- have a good night and stay blessed, bud.
