Thanks for the list.
I always simply refer to a wastepaper basket as a rubbish bin/trash can 垃圾桶,so this was interesting.
I've also never said 装饰画. I just say (一幅)画(儿)。
House plant was interesting too as I've always just said 花 or 植物 ;-)
I think the standard pronunciation for keys (钥匙)is yao4shi, but I'll have a look into that too.
Thanks again for sharing the list!
