We may be united in many ways and
both speak 'English', but the language barrier is still
evident as I've found in several conversations with my
American friends so here are translations of some of our
more quirky Brit-speak.
More to follow, so be warned... |
Ace - brilliant
Any road - anyway
Barmy - mad
Bees Knees - fabulous
Belt up - "shut up!" [be quiet]
Bender - heavy drinking session
Best of British - "good luck!"
Bite your arm off - Do anything to get something
["I'd bite your arm off for that new dress"]
Blow me - "I'm extremely surprised!"
|
|
Chivvy along - hurry someone/something up
Cock up - a mistake
Codswallop - talking rubbish/baloney ["what
a load of codswallop"]
Daft - silly ["Don't be daft!"]
Dishy - good looking [person]
Doddle - easy [to do]
Dog's dinner - [make a] real mess of something
Donkey's years - for ages
["I haven't seen you in donkey's years!"] |

Om Namah Shivaya...
 |
Couldn't resist this gorgeous
'healing bangle' I found on the Ancient
Roots site so I'm just waiting for it to arrive and
change my life ;)
The Om Namah Shivaya mantra is said to liberate
the mind and bring peace & tranquility to the chanter.
The literal translation of the ancient Indian Sanskrit
text is "I honour the self within me".
I also found this
cool site on my travels which has lots of my fave
new age stuff |

mail for a couple of days, so if I owe you a reply and you
didn't read the tag board - sorry, I'm on the case!
