*ROBERT FROST'S poem LODGED* The rain to the wind said,'You push and I'll pelt.'They so smote the garden bedThat the flowers actually knelt,And lay lodged - though not dead.I know how the flowers felt."Lodged" -- to be flattened by wind and rain -- is not a UK usage (via sistrah becky, who encountered it in a movie last night and was startled and looked it up)
I don't think it's especially common in North America either?

My children say line instead of queue; I've heard them say boardwalk instead of pier; they rarely use the perfect tense. Unless I want to do the annoying parent thing I've given up mentioning it.
Child (looking in cupboard): "Do we have ketchup?"Annoying parent: "Yes"C: "I can't see it"AP: "That's because we haven't got any at the moment, but generally we do have it. I'm sorry, your meaning was unclear to me"

As someone who works in the sector: UK farmers do say lodged, it’s p common to hear about eg wheat lodging

Is he saying that have should only be used meaning to consume so yes we consume ketchup but we are not currently in possession of it? Jesus. Anyway I’m tired of people pointing out when I say things weirdly. I’m just going to talk even more American from now on.

annoying parent is just incorrect in that example
― deems of internment (darraghmac), Monday, 2 December 2019 13:22 (four years ago) link
In my day, annoying parents would say that annoying children like my former self should never say "got" and should always use formulations like "do we have" instead

Any UK ILXors using "gotten" as the past participle of "got" yet? That's historically been distinctly American English.

not a uk ilxor, but gotten is valid
dont ask me how or why the specific usage vs "got"
also football talk, id say gotten is in there

I've found myself saying 'gotten' a lot. I hear 'douchebag' a lot too
