British slang words

[freeringo]

The Best of British - The American's guide to speaking British...
Some of these words are priceless.

Mutt's nuts - If something is described as being "the Mutt's" then you'll know it is fantastic or excellent. "The Mutt's" is short for "The Mutt's nuts" which is clearly another way of saying the "Dog's Bollocks"! All clear now?

My new saying:

Your win Eejit was the Mutt's nuts.

I love it

[eejit101]

Rofl.

The Bee's Knees means the same.

[freeringo]

Toodle pip - This is an old expression meaning goodbye. However, I only hear it when Americans are doing impressions of Brits as it has fallen into disuse, along with steam trains and gas lights.

This is the worst phrase I ever heard.

Goodbye my love

Toodle pip my love.

sounds like you going to the Loo

Guv'nor Slang term for a man

Dog and Bone = Phone

[KaciBlakely]

Fanny- It means vagina for those of you wondering.

I totally found this out by watching Daniel Radcliffe, aka, Harry Potter on Inside the Actor's Studio.

It was a great watch by the way.

I did enjoy it.

[eejit101]

Dan Radcliffe is cool. Without even trying. And enjoys getting his **** out in Equus on stage. Must be hung like me!! (lol)

Luv What all men call women. "Yes luv, no problem"

Just wondering what is up with the Brits using the ou in words when it is not needed?

You know what I mean.

Color > Colour

Favorite > Favourite

That kind of stuff.

If you want to explain it to us yankees.

Please do.

You now have permission.

I'll stand up for eejit on this one, lol. We're the ones who got the language from the Brits in the first place, remember? So we're the ones who decided it's not needed and unnatural and decided to change it.

As to why though, I'm not sure.

[KaciBlakely]

I know we decided it, Tay.

I was just wondering why.

Other than to use up more space in their works of writing.

Maybe it is feel space.

Maybe not.

But eejit is a brit and I think it'd be better for him to explain to us.

Rather than just google it myself.

I'm wondering if he give it to us better than some random newsrag.

That's what the Brits call Newspapers?

Right? lol

In the 1700's the new pioneers hated everything about Great Britain.
They indocrinated everybody to think and talk and write differently that the Brits. It is now like Apples and Oranges in every comparison you can think of. Mutt's nuts

[eejit101]

Ringo is kinda right.

As for everything else....

Newspapers = Newspapers, or just "the papers"

As for why you americans were "lazy and took out the ou", its because your lazy. Thats why 95% of Americans are fat and full of cheese

[KaciBlakely]

That is not an accurate statement.

I am neither fat nor lazy.

And I think saying ninety five percent of Americans are obese and don't apply themselves is just wrong.

Do we need to give you swats Eejit?

We don't insult your Queen do we?

lol

I resent that
I'm not full of cheese
I'm full of cheeseburgers and fries.

[eejit101]

Sorry,

95% of Americans are fat, and full of cheese AND fast food. Better?

And the other 5% are either fake or ugly.

(And yes, im saying this to wind you up, and i dont care)

[KaciBlakely]

LOL.

Eejit can wind me up any day.

I think the numbers are more like 80%.

And there are fat people in europe too.

America just has a bad image for obesity but we are not the only ones.

So why don't we get this thread back on topic.

ERMOK.

[eejit101]

ill regret this, but ERMOK?

[KaciBlakely]

Oh that meant nothing actually.

It's kinda a KTHXSTFU, conjunction.

It's just ERM, like umm.

And OK, as in okay.

So it's ERMOK.

It just means I'm done with this thought.

ERMOK.

Get it?

[freeringo]

Sorry,

95% of Americans are fat, and full of cheese AND fast food. Better?

And the other 5% are either fake or ugly.

[*KYLEE'SMOMMY*]

yall are some funny people!

[freeringo]

It all started when Navuta introduced us to Methabolic spice.

I swear it.

[freeringo]

yall are some funny people!

That would make a great signature for you.

click on user cp then edit signature

[eejit101]

Anyone who says "Y'all" has no right to call anyone else funny

And methabolic spicy on the brain is the bomb

[ffcowboy76]

What is wrong with saying Y'all? I use it every day when talking with people. Does it make me fat and lazy?

[KaciBlakely]

Why didn't you respond to my ERMOK post eejit.

I figured you would like to make fun of that one.

What if I started using ERMOK after every post instead of LMFAO.

Would that be better for you.

At least you know know I am just finishing my thought.

[eejit101]

Wtf is ERMOK tho??

hence the question.
