Answer 8

I assume you mean 'What's the English for, jelly?'  I also assume you mean jam, but we also have fruit jelly that we spread on bread or use as a sweetner in milk puddings, etc.  We also have jelly, but you Americans (assuming you are American) call that jello, I believe.  Why not buy yourself a Concise Oxford English Dictionary?  All your English language questions will be answered there.

sometimes referred to as preserves
