If you go back to Montréal, never say "Montréal Canada" say "Montréal Québec" ... If you value your teeth.

(I took the liberty of correcting the spelling for ya)
Thanks for the clarification, warning and advice

But, I got words that NOBODY on this planet uses. My wife invented those when she was small and only her family uses it.

Aschelamoschna ... a general term that can mean "oh all right" or *sigh* or "fine!" or "help"

Pensch (pronounced like penche) ... a term for a connecting ... thing, or something between two other things. Like when you have two windows with a bit of wall between them, and you want to put a dresser there, you say "let's move the dresser to the pensch". The origin is funny, it's the connecting part in Lampenschirm. Lampshade. Translated it could be "psha"
