British Sayings – British Slang – British Words
- Throw a Wobbly:
Throw a Wobbly - Very similar to the British Saying, "Have a Benny", this British Slang term means to, "Throw a Fit" or "Have a Tantrum". Although in BritSlang.com's view, it's a little less violent than "Having a Benny".
- Red Rag to a Bull:
Red Rag to a Bull - To purposely provoke someone into an adverse reaction. Say for example you "borrow" your sister's best frock and then flaunt it in front of her down your local on a Friday night. Now you'd be asking for it - that's like a "red rag to a bull" and certain to end quite nastily!
- What Are You Like?:
What Are You Like? - This recent British Saying is used when you see someone do something rather silly or outrageous. Similar to the rhetorical, "What are you doing?"
- Hanky-Panky:
Hanky-Panky - To Have A Bit Of A Snog or "Making Out" in American English. It's Original Meaning is That of Trickery or Shenanigans But it's More Commonly Used in the First Sense in Modern England.

Chockers - Another lovely British Slang word that simply means full to the brim or to bursting point.
