Reminds me of something I read somewhere: A non-New Yorker, shortly after arriving in the Big Apple, noticed that the locals were using a curious expression: "It'll cost a nominal egg." Not until some time later did this person realize that the NY-ers were actually saying "It'll cost an arm and a leg."
