name as in Lego the company, like Facebook the app. The Lego pieces aren’t called Legos, like how the individual Facebook users aren’t called Facebooks

for you. i’ve been a native english speaker outside the US my whole life and have never once used or heard “legos”

we would use it in the “correct”way according to the company.

“do you want to play with lego” “can you pass me that piece of lego” “can you pass me that pile of lego” “can you pass me those pieces of lego” etc.
