Is the term, "capsicum" - red, green or yellow - used in your or Jim's
parts of the world?  The word "pepper" can cover a multitude of
edibles, depending on whether it is preceded by, hot, chili, white,
black, coarse, ground, fresh, cracked, Szechwan, dried, bell, sweet,
Jalapeno, cayenne, serrano, milled, lots of, sliced, diced, chopped,
salt &, and/or followed by, corns, s, to taste, sauce, flakes, pods.
(All those found by just leafing through a hundred or so recipes on
file.)

Some of them are given in this recipe:
