It is cultivated worldwide. Despite being a single species, the capsicum annum has many forms, with a variety of names, even in the same language. In American English it is commonly known as the chili pepper, although not all varieties would be recognized by most speakers under this name. In British English, the sweet varieties are called peppers and the hot varieties chillies, whereas in Australian English the name capsicum is commonly used for bell peppers exclusively and chilli is often used to encompass the hotter varieties. Its forms are varied, from large to small, sweet to sour, very hot to bland.
