I'd say that a pushchair and buggy are roughly synonymous, but with buggy having connotations of a more lightweight, collapsible conveyance. (Most pushchairs can collapse to a certain extent, but some do not seem to save a significant amount of space by doing so.) I'll also note that pram is short for perambulator, a lovely word that has sadly fallen out of fashion in the last couple of centuries. | |
