Does My Face look Bovvered BritSlang.com Dictionary Design

A question made famous by UK comedienne Catherine Tate. Americans might say, “I could care less”, but literally it means, “Am I Bothered?” and is posed as a rhetorical question.

The word “bovvered” enjoyed such resurgence in the UK, that it was voted Word of the year in 2006 – in part due to its popularity on the aforementioned show.

Growing up in the UK, it was phrase that us kids used in irreverent defiance to our teachers and Head Masters – but usually behind their backs. To do so otherwise would definitely lead to a clip around the ears or in more modern times after school detention. It’s funny to see kids of this era now adopting the phrase as their own as something new and unique, despite or in spite of the fact that it has been around for donkey’s years!

And if you don’t like it?  Well Bollocks to you!  Here is a British Expression definition of Bollocks.

Bollocks Definition:

The clear dictionary definition of this word is ‘testicles”, however the UK interpretation is a little different, meaning nonsense or rubbish.
The word first comes into usage in the 13th Century where a clerical scholar in John Wycliffe’s Bible said that it was commanded that animals with their “ballokes” removed would not be suitable sacrificial candidates. Later clergymen were referred to as “bollock” or “ballocks” because of their nonsensical long-winded speeches.

Today the word is ranked 8th on the BBC’s December 2000 paper called “Delete Expletives, one above “arsehole” and one below “prick”. Which is interesting because the word “balls” which has an almost identical meaning was placed a lowly 22nd. That hasn’t dampened the words popularity and it comes up everywhere although it is perceived a swear word and not to be used flippantly.
