In my own variety of English (Canadian) at least, the verb can and the corresponding canning do include preserving food in jars as well as tins, so you may wish to consider including it as a synonym here. Aabull2016 (talk)
- I suggest searching for evidence of such usage at websites such as Google Books and the HathiTrust Digital Library. You can post any quotations you have found here. — SGconlaw (talk) 15:00, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
