Those are all the same in AmE. Except I've never seen a bilberry or a medlar.
I'd like to know what is the second word used in the US for "armchair"! Thank you
<<"I've never seen a bilberry or a medlar." How do you call them, then?>>
I meant I've never physically seen the actual fruit. They are not popular or readily available here. I imagine they would be called by those names, though, since there's no reason for us to rename them.

"Autobús (bus) is common in most of Latin America although Argentina and Uruguay use 'ómnibus '. 'Guagua' is a colloquial word for bus used by some Carribean speakers of Spanish: Cubans, Dominicans and Puerto Ricans. In Mexico, the colloquial term for bus is 'camión ' and in Chile 'bus'."
I think of "omnibus" as a more Uruguayan alternative, "colectivo" being the preferred form in Argentina.

I concur with what Uriel said about medlars and bilberries. But I read that bilberries are sometimes called various other names, including mountain huckberry and mountain blueberry.
The word for peach in (some? all?) Latin American countries is durazno.

<<Can you give me two sentences for the word pedestrian>>
1. Motorists must yield the right of way to pedestrians.
2. The diva's performance last night in the title role of "Lucia di Lammermoor" was, to put it mildly, shockingly pedestrian.
