Answer 4

Well, when abbreviated to beet, it is often referring to sugar beet, a predominantly 'white' root vegetable that can be used for cattle feed, but as its name implies is rich in sugar which can be extracted. During WWII, when it was difficult to obtain sufficient supplies of sugar from abroad, the UK grew sugar beet to supplement their sugar supplies. Sugar is still extracted from sugar beet today.

The other kind of beet is ordinary red beetroot, a deep almost purple root vegetable that is usually boiled and eaten with salads. It is often pickled in vinegar, may be sliced or whole (small ones - referred to as baby beets).

A redneck is an American term - from Wikipedia :-Redneck, in modern usage, predominantly refers to a particular stereotype of people who may be found in many regions of the United States (especially the Southern regions) and Canada. Originally limited to the Appalachians, and later the Ozarks and Rocky Mountains, this stereotype is now widespread in northern states and the Canadian provinces. The word began as a pejorative classist slur with a racial component, indicating poor, ignorant persons of European descent, but has also been 'reclaimed' and is now often used by those wishing to show pride in their heritage.

A beet is what the Americans call beetroot.The other kind of beet is sugar-beet but this is usually used as food for animals or as a source of sugar rather than as a human food-plant.

The term 'redneck' was originally used to describe people who worked mostly outdoors and therefore had red and sunburnt necks.Nowadays it is used to describe a class of people who are sort of like American versions of chavs-racist and lazy and heavy drinking and uneducated-except while chavs over here are mainly urban thugs rednecks are more often country people.
