I had to carefully grab the questions without looking at Rebecca's answers, because I tend to get dialectically confused, having been brought up both in the USA and Australia. For example, in the presence of Americans I use the word "garbage", and with Australians I use the word "rubbish", so it can be hard for me to figure out which word I "naturally" use.
