MellowYetPsycho Tailos Tsamikayu The word 'aye' meaning 'yes' is used in Scotland a lot, though I myself never really got into the habit. I do however use 'wee' as a substiture for 'little'. Anything else, I can't remember, except maybe this sentence: "I never did that." Meaning, of course, "I didn't do that." As a borderline Welsh/English guy, I'll add in too. We use 'Aye' a lot, same with 'wee'. Scot slang is similar to Welsh, I guess. Then, of course, there's the good ol' stereotypical Rhonda valley talk. Accent included. "Aw-riiight, but-ty, 'ows it go--in'?" meh, for some reason i was never too fond of the word "wee". i like daft. and niggle. and bugger. among others..
Oooh, bugger's a good one as well! 3nodding

illyrianth Gaulia illyrianth Of all people, you shouldn't be mentioning pinching OR punching xp As to things which only the British seem to say....a favourite from the WestCountry in particular.... "Where's it to?" Meaning, of course, "Where is it" The number of people who used to look at me blankly when I used that particular colloquialism....gah! It's always made perfect sense to me. Nor should you, which means you have no defense when I say that you and ;>> <<; SYD role play [Kinkily] as Mary and Joseph, because you're both that old and probably knew them both first hand. *Cough. Coughcoughcough* ew, mental images.
=\ But that seems pretty clear to me, but I've generally thought of it the way Dana said it would mean, "Where does this go"~blinks~ Are you SURE you are quite over that concussion? That didn't make any sense at all.... eek Ah, good. I was harbouring anxiety that either a temporary mental affliction was impeding my understanding of our fair tounge, or that there exists a bizarre nonconformist kind of sentence structure frequently employed by the regulars of this guild, thus rendering the language incomprehensible to outsiders or newcomers. Clearly, however, my fears were misplaced.

Longbow UK whapcapn Longbow UK 'Bloody' - The ultimate British word. xd What about "bugger"? 3nodding Bugger has been mentioned.
...Someone should create a list of the ultimate British words and stick it on the front page. xp Oops, just saw that, sorry. You should all read PG Wodehouse. He's got some fanastically British stuff in there.
