Does Your City/Country Have Slang?
 

and if so what are they?


Wench - It means girl/woman.. (this is on the list for Birmingham words/phases but it's now exclusive to Brum)
Bab

Mardy, jitty and.... err, that's about it

(pretty sure 'wench' isn't exclusive to Birmingham)

Mainly Dudley, but i'm sure others use it. but it's still a slang used where I'm from.

if you type in birmingham slang also Wench will come up.

I grew up in Newcastle, there's loads :laugh:

Tab - cigarette - "h'ya man, gizz'a tab like"
Chav (I know everyone says it but in newc it's pronounced charv or charver) - "that charver nicked all me tabs like"
Chud - chewing gum

and more I can't think of right now

Wench is Shakespearean

There's hunners a Scottish slang

I know.. but it's a slang in Dudley(black country) as well.

Yes we have.

Bonk is a Birmingham word? Maybe I'm just use to it as I hear it everyday but I'm surprised that nobody else uses that word lol.

I never heard anyone use bonk around here:joker:

Bonk used to mean tupping here :/

this video is a really cheesy advertisement... but it uses every slang term from my area of Canada in it... with subtitles... so I will just post it for convenience sake.

In Pittsburgh we have our own dialect (well, more like all of Western Pennsylvania). You can look it up here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wester...lvania_English

By the way, its not soda; its pop.

Soda pop, watch it fizz and pop

caling- talking
blob- not show up
bob in- call in briefly

Where do you live? I recognise a couple o' those

When my partner was working at this firm in France, he taught this French guy some useful English words. He didn't tell the guy it was Cockney rhyming slang though. We all met up one evening for a drink and he proudly came up to me and asked me if we could 'bubble and squeak' in English!

I didn't have the heart to tell him but Steve did get a slap from me later!

Im a Geordie we speak a diff language

we call chewing gum 'chewy' but I think everywhere does that idk

Pudsey in Leeds

California is mostly known for skater/surfer slang... "dude" "bro" "awesome" etc...
