Culturally, "sport" is almost synonymous with "team sport". Anything solo is viewed by most as a hobby.

Not saying it's right/correct, but especially for kids, karate would be a "hobby" and baseball a "sport". At least, that's the world I grew up in.

And, in my part of Texas, we call the lil roads next to highways as "feeders" where I've never met someone else that uses that word. And I suspect that nobody cares.
