Some help please...?

...for the Best Man (from Tennurssee, y'all) shortly at my daughter's wedding in the UK, just FB'd me, trying to craft his speech... He is looking to use the 'two nations divided by a common language' theme; remind me, apart from 'colourful' spellings, what American/English words have 2 meanings? I already have 'bonnet-hood', 'rubber-eraser' (I know, be careful - even more so with 'Fanny', which used to be a girl's name of course...), 'pants-underpants-trousers' - any more? Thanks :)

@SW-User I shall now look at Jelly-Jello in a completely different light. Thanks for your help.

@Valentine np. from the googles:
The collagen in gelatin does come from boiling the bones and hides of animals processed for their meat (usually cows and pigs). But hooves consist of a different protein, keratin, which can't produce gelatin. To make Jell-O, you need to heat the gelatin in water.Dec 19, 2013

@SW-User I don't think I'm going to be mentioning this to the kids at the party - like telling them about Father Christmas (Santa?) and 'The Tooth Fairy'... ;)

@SW-User Thank you - yes of course. (Did you know biscuit derives from Latin, bis = twice, cuit = cooked - twice-cooked therefore? I will go back into my geek corner, sawwy :( ;)
