Elevator - lift Cheese - is it orange? Sausage - Spicy like pepperoni or genuine English pork banger? Muffin - or scone, or biscuit? Earl Grey Grande - Bit of latin influence here surely. Couch - sofa. Scotch - Pretty universal, but we'd be more likely to say "whisky" (without the "e" of course). And, if it's single malt, definitely no ice - perhaps just a splash of water.
