    Which is objectively a better word. Ah Americans - twice the syllables, twice the letters, and it doesn’t even flash!

    Except torch is a fancy stick with one end on fire. Flashlight is a light giving an intense flash, used for photographing at night or indoors.

      You seem to be German. I just looked up “flash” and it means Blitzlicht in German. Hope that helps.
