1) You inadvertently pronounce "tomato" as "tomahto".
2) When you say "pasta", the vowel is no longer the "a" of "father" but that of "man".
3) You are momentarily confused when someone from home talks about "pants", because you've come to accept that "pants" means underpants rather than trousers ("sweatpants" are a ludicrous and mind-boggling idea in this context).
4) Your inner monologue develops a broad Scottish accent, even though you cannot actually pronounce it. Or even understand it.

That is all.
