They might not even be disposable batteries, they could be rechargeable batteries.

Generally people just say the size of the battery like "AAs". Or if you're weird the type like "alkaline batteries" or "nimh"

I was trying to ask a Spanish speaker if their cell phone battery store had D batteries. It was very confusing. They ended up calling someone (I assume their boss) who spoke English for me to ask.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
