What is the difference between شغلات and اشياءand when to use these phrases
I've seen اشياء and شغلات both used to mean "things". Is this a difference between these two or can I use them interchangeably?

Also, is there a difference between this phrases:
هي الشغلات

"وفي رياضات ثانيه مثل كرة السلة السلة والتنس والسباحة والتايكوندو والكراتيه..وهي الشغلات."

هيك شي

"بسوريا ما في عنا هيك شي."

اشياء هدول

اذا بدنا نشتري جوزأو بندق أو بهارات أو فلفل أو الاشياء هدول،

This is too say, could the first sentence be

وفي رياضات ثانيه مثل كرة السلة السلة والتنس والسباحة والتايكوندو والكراتيه..وهيك شي.

or could the second be بسوريا نا في عنا هي الشغلات

and so on? do all three of these short phrases mean the same thing- "these things"?

أشياء = things ( achyaa)
شيئ =thing ( chaya)
هده الأشياء =this things ( hadihi alachyaa)
هدا الشيئ = this thing ( hada achaya )

Answer

الشغلات هى نفسها الاشياء

Answer

(اشياء) is Fusha .. 
(شغلات) is an Arabic Accent , i think it's used in Syria.
But in Egypt we use another word ( حاجات ) 
وهذه تستخدم فى اللهجة العامية .

Answer

They are being used interchangeably.
Exact meaning of شغلات is occupancies. and of اشياء is things.
شغلات usually is referring to something that is time-occupying (consuming).
For precise language, شغلات is better to be used with actual time-consuming activities.
