British Sayings – British Slang – British Words
- Mad as a Hatter: Mad as a Hatter - This wonderful British saying means completely crazy and is rather macabre in its origin. Hat makers (hatters) would commonly use mercury in the making of hats. The prolonged excessive exposure to this toxic chemical damaged the nervous system and caused them to shake uncontrollably. Thus making them appear to be completely insane or bonkers as we Brits would say.
- Ark at Eee!: Ark at Eee - Another Bit of Bristolian Slang That Simply Means: Listen to Him or Her! A True Colloquial expression from Bristol, England.
- Jammy: Jammy - Superlicously Luvverly! Another Bristolian Sparkler. If You Happen Whilst Walking Down the Street to Find a £50 Note, then You Could be a Very "Jammy" Sod Indeed - Or Very Lucky in Everyone Else's Language!
- Bob's Your Uncle: Bob's Your Uncle - This Brit Saying Always Reminds me of Bob Monkhouse. Other Brits Will Know Who I'm on About. There's Not Much More British Than This Expression Which Means, "Presto" to the Rest of the World. Bob's Your Uncle? - There You Go! You Might Get a Lot of Strange Looks from Persons who've Actually Got an Uncle Called Bob, Just Don't Spend Too Much Time Trying to Educate Them. Yeah, We Call Our Uncles Bob Over There...It's A Term of Endearment...
- Gobsmacked: Gobsmacked - At A Loss For Words. Just Absolutely Amazed
- Cheesed Off: Cheesed Off - This Little Ditty Means Tired Or Bored With Something. It Can also Stretch to Feeling Annoyed.
- Bloody Nora: Another great British Slang Term that means "Bloody Hell". Not used much nowadays but still one of the greats.
- Zed: Zed - the letter Zee to the Americans. It's the last letter in the alphabet but probably the most popular. And even in the ABC children's' ditty we Brits rhyme Zed with Cee at the end. Works for me!
- Get Knotted!: Get Knotted! - A Not So Polite Way to Tell Someone Who's Being a Bit of a Nuisance to Get Stuffed.
- Voddy: Voddy - Us Brits love to abbreviate words or add a "Y" to the end and this British Word didn't escape either. It's the English way of saying Vodka.
- Chip Butty: Chip Butty - This unusual British Slang word is actually a food group unto itself in the UK. It is beyond fattening in its construction. Made from a bread roll, spread lovingly with lashings of butter and stuffed to the rafters with chips, it is guaranteed to clog up those arteries in a hurry. Dieters be for warned!
- Bloke: Bloke - A Strange and Befuddling Word to the Americans. Try Using it as a Verb Instead of a Noun. I'm Right Bloked, I am! A British Bloke is You Guessed it. It's a Guy.
- Keep Your Hair On!: Keep Your Hair On! - Calm Down! Such a Visual British Slang Term. You can Imagine Someone Actually Losing their Hair in a Fit of Rage. Nice!
- Queen's English: Queen's English - Perfectly Proper English Language Pronunciation. Usually spoken by the Upper Crust of British Society.
