"The pepper"

Translation: Pepparn

[WolfDane]

Is "peppar" referring to just black pepper? Does it also apply to green peppers and hot peppers, too?

[Super-Svensk]

"Peppar" refers to the spice, whereas "en paprika" refers to a bell pepper.

Thank you, tack!

Why is it not pepparen?

[sjmcarter]

Does it seem to anyone else that the "r" is dropped. I am hearing "peppan".
