    Some people call a movie a show. Also, instead of saying "Can I borrow some money?" will say, "Can you borrow me some money?" And then, some people will refer to a something that they don't know the name of as "the whatzit there." Like, "Go pick up the whatzit there." I think that's mostly Canadians or those Fargo people.
