Well, so many yanks on the baord, why not educate them in the way to speak, they can wow their friends with new lingo.

 

Here's how it works.....

 

the americans can ask for the british meaning of a word, we reply...

 

and british can give a few translations of their own... for exmaple

 

Boner = hard on, stiffy

Hot = fit

Having a period = the decorators are in

haircut = ears lowered

trash = rubbish

Trunk = boot (of a car)

Cell phone = mobile phone

:laugh3: I am sooooooooooooooo going to use 'the decorators are in' next month!!

 

 

what part of Britian are you from?? I need to learn some regional lingos..

man...i got my ears lowered and it looks really fit but i couldnt get back to me flat because i locked my mobile in the boot...damnit

oh and the girl that lowered my ears was fit and gave me a bit of a stiffy...

I have a question.. why do you pronounce the word aluminum as aluminium... ??

haha funny good use of words

thank you thank you

well guys I am outta here gots other thangs to do yaw be good now!

lata

we pronounce it, alu min e um....god knows why, i don't get why your pronounciation is different

 

jon: a haircut doesn't look fit...it looks "tight" or "good"...but the girl looking fit and giving you a bit of a stiffy is fine...if it was half a stiffy, use "semi".

 

Bin = trash can

Sofa = settee

erm

 

I'm brom bimringham Cam, the middle of england, but the regional dialect around ehre is awful, you don't want to know any

well...im going to go to bed with my stiffy...goodnight everyone

no no no, you don't say semi stuffy, just semi.

 

i got a semi (means i'm half hard)

 

Penis = dick (well dick most common word used over here)

Breat = boobs/tits (most commonly used words here)

pants = trousers over here

Underwear = pants (over here)
