Game of Thrones (spoiler-free zone)
A few have suggested it, might as well test the waters. The idea is to give people who haven't read the books a safe place to talk about the show.
A few quick ground rules:

Sorry, a couple things slipped past me.
Jon Snow says he fought and killed a "white?" What is he referring to? I had difficulty understanding Jorah. Did he tell Dany that he loved her or something? Why were her eyes welling up? Thanks. |

I assumed he meant white walker.
And Jorah didn't say he loved her (something about her being a good, kind-hearted queen), but it's getting pretty obvious that he does. |

He killed that white walker in Commander Mormont's quarters. That's what he was referring to.

Wight. But yes, he's talking about the white walker he killed in Mormont's quarters.

He told Dany that he looks at her and still can't believe she's real. It was clear he wants her. She realized Xaro was right about Jorah being in love with her so it got a little awkward.

Wights are the infantry in the white walker population. They are basically like zombies, unthinking. If you remember back to the first episode of season 1, those white walkers used strategy and were much smarter, so are not considered wights but something else which escapes me.

OK i didn't think that thing he killed was a white walker. I don't remember it looking like either of the white walkers we've seen so far.

Yeah, he killed a wight. Not a white (walker). If he killed a white walker, they would make a bigger deal of it and probably even be calling him something cool, like Snow Killer, or slayer, or something.

In the books, the main evil beings are the Others or White Walkers, and the zombies they create out of dead people are the Wights. Jon killed a Wight. We have only seen the actual Others twice, once in the very first episode, and once when Jon saw one of them (or what appearerd to be one of them) taking Craster's son that he had left as a sacrifice.

Duh. Right. He didn't kill a white walker. He killed a wight/zombie that came back from the dead.
