minus-squareAganim@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·28 天前We call old-fashioned stoves with a resistive spiral a ceramic plate here, while induction stoves are never referred to as a ceramic plate. Might not be technically correct, but that’s language for you I guess.
minus-squareboonhet@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·28 天前Ah yeah, apparently in English ceramic stovetops are only called ceramic when there’s a resistive spiral lol, didn’t know. It’s funny because the ceramic refers to the glass, which is quite literally the same for induction.
