What non-slang words give away that someone is not from your country?

As the title says, what are the non-slang, “normal” terms in your language that are a dead giveaway someone is not from your country?

For example, if someone says “tú” I already disregard them as Argentinian. Same with “pues” (in Argentina “pues” is rarely used). These are normal words in the Spanish language that are entirely correct and not slang, but for some reason we don’t use them.

Is there an equivalent for your country?

Main destination of European immigrants during the great wave of immigration

The great wave of European immigration took place after most countries in the Americas gained independence, especially between the late 19th century and mid-20th century.

Argentina received the largest share of European immigrants in the world compared to its population, with 30% of the population being born in Europe at its peak in 1914, followed by Canada.
