We called those 2 terms "formal parameters", and "actual parameters" if I remember my programming language concepts class from college correctly.

I've never been to programming college but in 10 years I have always heard them as def(parameters) and call(arguments). Probably a lot of that was when reading about how VMs and compilers work, though.
