Thank You Brits for Slang Words, page 1

Tunes should really be CHOONS
Records should really be REKKIDS!

Brits use words so well and it works better

shite sounds so much better than shit
gurner and nutter - crazy and drug addict

and my fave....CUNT!

add words if you feel necessary

English teacher told us a Fag in the UK means a cigg,

i bet a not a lot of ppl knew that (j/k)

you say that in toronto, people look at you weirdly.

ironically shes from there

i like CUNT too. =) as in "YOU STUPID CUNT!#$#$5$" =)

Such a beautiful part and beautiful word!

Andy wishes he was from the UK as he's a git from Ontario!!!!  

Hope you're well mate, I see MR is drowning with the lack of mixes and posts!!

hehe, brits.. "brit" in itself is a good strong word already.. =)

how about this, my friend from university in russia, who i haven't been in touch for years, about 10 years ago has moved to UK and got into a governmental organization called, i think, Actuary Mathematics Smth Smth, basically math that deals with predictions, risks, etc, etc, - all the math theory that is needed for any life/property/etc insurance company. to make this short, his email looked something like "Grigory.Spivak@gad.gov.uk", where "gad" is for that actuary thing, and rest is plain... well, this email is only missing 1 letter to be read in russian as a double curse-word... if it said "@gad.govN.uk" - it would have been "gad govnuk" - in russian "gad - bad person, jackass", "govnuk - shitty person, asshole"...

anyways, i dunno why i wrote that.. just to keep this thread going, i guess.. =)

ps. can anyone share some well over-used Cockney expressions? i only know a couple... "upstairs" would be "apples and pears" or something like that?.. =)

Slash as I had the misfortune to live and work in London for 7 years until the end of 2010...here are a few for you...

"the old boat race" or even "the boat" - in english its the face" when talking about a woman
"jacobs" as  in cut off your fookin jacobs - bascially chop your balls/bollox off
"trolleys" as in "get yer trolleys off" get ones trousers off
trouble and strife - wife
Pete Tong - wrong (and because he's a shit DJ using x-Traktor)
Barnet as in, on me  barnet - as in on my head
Claret - Blood

Alternatively watch "lock Stock and two smoking barrels and or Snatch" to get the full monty so to speak....heres a snippet...

ive seen them both and each a dozen times, very good films, very good. and thanks for quotes there =)

Sky Rocket - Pocket

Sherman Tank - Bank

Gregory - Neck (Gregory Peck)

Hank Marvin - Starving (Starving = Hungry)

Dog & Bone - Phone

Ruby Murray - Curry

Weston Super Mare- Nightmare

Chevy Chase - Face

So a typical Cock-er-ney would talk like this

I was totally Hanked, so I grabbed the Dog and called me self up a Ruby Murray.

Checked me old Sky Rockets. I'm Piston aren't I?

A total Weston Super!

You should have seen the look on my Chevy son.....

.... so I runs down the Apples and over the Frog and Toad to the Sherman.

By the time that Ruby arrived I was so Hank Marvin I threw the whole lot down me Gregory in a flash.

"i could murder a fag right now" means very different things in UK than it does in US

Now, if only they could actually spell the language they invented!
