Regionalism's

you could be a career "woodchuck" - person who works wiht trees

The name of the animal itself is a regionalism - just five hours away it's a "groundhog." My sister and I agree that it's an awful garden pest (although the four babies under my porch right now are just too cute), but we can't agree on what it's called!

In the country, a private road connecting a house to a public road is called a "lane." I've lived here 11 years and still call it my "driveway" more often than not... trying to learn.
