JDoors Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) I'm surprised at how many I've heard. Guess I watch a lot of Brit TV and movies. Many are absobloodylutely common in the U.S. (not that one though). Whoa, I knew about a few words or phrases we used differently, but some that are completely innocent here are rather rude 'over there.'

martymas Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) hi JD many of the slang words used in brit are interupted in there own wayin australia and new zealand.and in the past being a british country oz and nz naturally followed the language trends. reading the board from american poster i assumed usa has a language suited for their use.yes i agree some words are not repeatable here on the board.do you watch? click on line from the bbcit is a bit more tech than techtvand not so much showman ship.but i understand their programs are interchangeable with techtv. tech bots was one. ime a fan of slang. as sometimes when i post,im inclined to swiing back to short cut words [example]ime instead of i ami cant get out of the habit. here in nz we all are inclined to cut our words so if i need to appoligise for my half caste englishsorry bout thatmarty Edited May 18, 2006 by martymas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDoors Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 We just treat your posts like that e-mail forward that had every word mispelled but you could still read what it said. (Kidding!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
