Some British-isms?

Here are a few vocabulary changes that I was able to pick up while in London.
K

taxi driver = cabbie
sweater = jumper
TV = tellie
restroom = toilet
french fries = chips
chips = crisps
argument = row
self-check out machines = pin and chip machines
movie theater = cinema
soccer = football (This one was very important, considering the recent World Cup games)


If you have any others, please feel free to leave them in the comments!
