I moved to Vancouver for a bit when I was younger - second day there, much excite. In a 7-11, I ask for "a bottle of water"... I repeat... shopkeeper asks if I can speak english ...
* I can't remember why I would be asking for a bottle instead of just paying for one, maybe I couldn't see them and was asking where they were, it was a long time ago.
** I think it was the missing 't's that threw them.

I can't even order water in the US and it varies between states. "Can I get a waaaada!" "wotaa" "war tar"
Also try reading out your CC number over the phone in the US without putting on your best fake American accent and see how far you get. :)
