<i>&gt; Even the word for bags in a supermarket can&#x27;t be agreed on. Here we use &quot;buste&quot;, where as in the north they use &quot;sacchetto&quot;. Our word there means envelope, so obviously you will get a funny look if you ask for three envelopes when paying for your groceries (the joke is on us though, we use that word for envelope too :P).</i><p>Ha, that reminds me of <i>sac</i> in the north of France versus <i>poche</i> (the word northerners would use for the thing in their trousers) as used in the south(-west?) to designate a plastic bag in a supermarket...
