English colloquialisms
Just thought I'd create this thread as it was asked for in the forum help and suggestions thread (meechmunchie...) Any 1 want to start?:D
|
How about you? How about you start?
|
Eh
|
Well ok, err hmm, any specific topic?
|
Shouldn't you have thought of a starter when you made the thread? :tard:
|
"Fag" means "cigarette". I know it, you all know it, so stop using it so nonsensically.
|
Faggot is a bundle of wood.
|
What is a colloquialism? (non-english member asking here).
|
|
This is a thread about Colloquialisms... I'm allowed to ask.
|
And I answered. You're welcome.
|
You didn't really.. But thanks anyway.
|
So, the wikipedia link didn't help?
|
Yea... a bit.
|
What more did you want to know?

Yins. Nice Pittsburghian colloquialism which means "you all."
|
There's nothing nice about yins.
|
Indeed. Got anything to share from Detroit's well of eloquence?
|
Nope.
|
OANST has used his force of presence, unwittingly or by design, to shoehorn all of his colloquialisms into the worldwide common parlance.
|
Nope actually is a colloquailism, silly.
|
I thought the title said 'English colonialism'.
|
That's a thread unto itself.
|
I disown this thread.
|
aww mechmunchie D=, Anywho, I will now start with some cockney slang:
Apples and pears = stairs Dog and bone = phone Old time minute = time space (around an hour) |
James May - Tweed, beige etc.

God, this thread is as terrible as those terrible Monty Python sketches that are just terrible.
