crepe
Explanation:
Zavisi na kakvu se palačinku misli. One kakve su kod nas uobičajene (vrlo tanke) su crepes, a pancake su američke palačinke (možda i negde drugo) koje su malo manjeg obima i deblje.
Puno recepata na Googlu.

Crepe
The French word for \'pancake,\' which is exactly what these light, paper-thin creations are. They can be made from plain or sweetened batters with various flours, and used for savory or dessert dishes. Dessert crepes may be spread with a jam or fruit mixture, rolled or folded and sometimes flamed with brandy or liqueur. Savory crepes are filled with various meat, cheese or vegetable mixtures-sometimes topped with a complement sauce and served as a first or main course.

agree  John Farebrother: Na engleskom se kaze pancake, dok je crepe francuski. Inace postoji i hrana crepe kod nas, ali nije to to. Nisam cuo za battercake.

  -> hvala, inače izraz battercake je češći u S. Americi

agree  lanoushka: PANCAKE ima vise formi. Crepe je tacno ono sto se na nasim jezicima podrazumijeva pod PALACINKA.

crepe'


Explanation:
Na americkom kontinentu je usvojen francuski naziv "crepe" (sa apostrofom na drugo "e"), da bi se lakse pravila razlika izmedju tankih palacinki (crepes - mnozina) i debljih, koje ovde zovu pancakes. To je i uobicajeni naziv koji se nalazi na listama jela u restoranima.
