[@ChristopherStendeck]

There's one that Ricky didn't mention, and I'm slightly surprised, because it's a good one, and legend has it, is directly related to "Bog Standard". The term is "Dog's Bollocks". SPOILER ALERT: If you don't want to know what it means, don't read on. As you heard, "Bog Standard" means "Basic, No Frills". Well, "(The) Dog's Bollocks" means the opposite:"The Ultimate, The Absolute Best". "The bomb" I suppose would be a good American synonym. It is said that both terms are corrupted versions of what (vintage constructional toy) Meccano used to call its original two play sets. If the legend is true, they were called "Box Standard" and "Box Deluxe". You can see how and why the first would have been corrupted. "Bog" is also slang for "toilet" after all. A deliberate and derogatory mispronunciation. The second requires a bit of "spoonerism", (swapping the first consonant of two words); Box Deluxe > Dox Beluxe > Dogs Bollux > Dog's Bollocks. You can see the logic, and spoonerism like this was a popular bit of humourous wordplay in the old days. In fact, there was a comedian who made a whole career out of it. Anyway, I can't confirm that it's true, I want it to be, but I hope you found it interesting.

I heard this explanation on QI, not sure which season or episode.

[@slashdisco]

It's simply not true, I'm afraid. There's a longstanding metaphorical tradition in English, popularised in the 1920s, to compliment something by referring to an animal. Hence: "cat's whiskers", "cat's pyjamas", "cat's meow", "bee's knees". These are the ones that have most stood the test of time, but there were many others back in the day: "eel's ankle", "elephant's instep", "pig's wings", "clam's garter" - the more ludicrous the better. It was simply a humorous trend of the 1920s. "Dog's bollocks" was just a slightly cruder equivalent.

[@ChristopherStendeck]

I used to work in an Off License. As Ricky suggested, it's to do with the alcohol licence required to run an establishment like that. You need a license to sell alcohol to be consumed OFF the premises, as in to be bought there, but not drunk there. By comparison, a bar, restaurant or pub needs a license to sell alcohol for consumption ON the premises. However, I have never heard the term "On license" being used, and it certainly would never be used to refer to such an establishment.

[@brxee]

And of course many pubs had an offy hatch 😉

[@danielgardecki1046]

There's no such thing as an *Off-License* in the US or the UK, as it's called an *Off-Licence.* There is no *S* in *Off-Licence* or any other *Licence.*

[@ChristopherStendeck]

@Darth Wheazius This is true. Sometimes I forget which is which, to my eternal shame. I love the pedantry though. 😊

[@danic9304]

Quick correction of Ricky's assertion that we don't use 'pants' to mean trousers over here - we actually do in many areas of the country - up in the North in particular the words trousers and pants are pretty much interchangeable, with 'trousers' having more formal connotations - the word 'pants' in the north can mean underpants (if someone is 'sitting in their pants' then they are in their undies) - but a kid might go to school in new school pants and that would mean trousers. I wouldn't use the word 'trousers' for jogging bottoms, I'd call them pants - but if i were shopping for a suit I would be looking for a jacket and trousers. * This might be changing though - as southern language forms become more normalised across the country: for instance - when i was a kid in a working class northern school we didn't have 'lunchtime' at school, we had 'dinner time' and the ladies who served it and looked after the kids were 'dinner ladies' - the midday meal was 'dinner' and the evening meal was 'tea'. In the South (and in more middle class homes in the North) the midday meal was 'lunch' and the evening meal was 'dinner. This now seems to be taking over across the country so the younger generations in the North seem to have adopted this and now schools have lunchtime not dinnertime. Though they still I think refer to the evening meal as 'tea'

A pub is licenced for patrons to drink ON the premises, an off license is for consumption OFF the premises only.

[@shymike]

To sell alcohol in UK premises ned a licence issued by a court. Pubs are licencesed to sell alcohol on site, so shops which sell alcohol to take away are off licences as you're drinking it off licencesed premises.

[@PYRA420]

i think that bog standard basically means that something is so normal and common that most people will have one, just like how most people have a toilet

[@gracesprocket7340]

The off-licence has a history dating back to the medieval Ale-Wives, who were ordered to obey a roster and to cooperate in brewing their small batches of Ale so that a Ville had a constant supply, but no glut. The Alehouse was marked by a wreath of barley whn she had a batch available, and the other people could purchase Ale by the quart or gallon, to take away. More formal arrangements for travellers were the inns, where guests would eat and sleep overnight - and they also had Ale and wines available to purchase to drink on the premises. Inns eventually expanded into and morphed into a permanent 'public house' for locals to drink on the premises by the tankard or glass, (with some retaining rooms for guests to overnight either as inns or as a guest house) - the old Alehouses are functional replaced by off-licenses though most grocers and supermarkets also have an off-license aisle or corner.

[@neuralwarp]

There are on-licenses and off-licenses, which allow the sale of liquor on and off the premises respectively. Some on-licenced pubs used to have a glass cabinet in one corner which was their off-licence, so customers could buy liquor (= any alcohol) to take away. But in the 1990s they liberalised the licensing laws.

When I was a small boy one got the most basic Meccano set (what Yanks call an erector set) labelled "Box Standard"--that was in the 1950s. As the term "Bog Standard" only appeared in the early 1960s and was related to cars, especially those used for cheap motorsport, perhaps the term was just a corruptiion.

[@coldplay1789]

[@Just-a-bit-Jay]

Off-license refers to a license given by the local council for retail of alcohol "off the premises". I run a pub and it requires an "on-license" which means people can consume on premises but we can all retail "off" sales. Anywhere can pretty much sell alcohol, petrol (gas) stations, corner shops, supermarkets, your local food takeaway, you just need a premises license and a personal license (held by the owner of the outlet). Hope this helps 👍🏻

[@dan8346]

I can explain off-license. When you go out to buy alcohol "legally" it has to be purchased from a licensed premises, a pub, bar, club etc but these places are not only licensed to sell alcohol they are licensed to serve alcohol for consumption ON the premises. An off-license is a store that is licensed to sell alcohol for consumption OFF the premises only, they can't sell you drinks to consume inside the store.

You get a license to sell alcohol in a pub where they consume alcohol on the premises, becoming a licensed pub owner. Off-licences can sell alcohol but you can't consume alcohol on the premises.

[@TheComputec]

Off License isn't really slang. Its a technical definition, describing a place and an activity that can legally be done there. Pubs (bars) are called licensed premises and can sell beer, wine and spirits to be consumed on the premises (on license). Liquor stores are able to sell the same things for people to take away and consume OFF the LICENSED premises... usually shortened to Offy This used to be a very strict protectionist arrangement, but these days restaurants, bistros and clubs will sometimes have a license for both activities... The main thing is that you cannot drink your beers and spirits legally INSIDE an off-license.

Take it from this British man of words, you were right about Grim. Bleak is a perfect synonym. Ricky's definitions of something "boring" or "disgusting" are valid, as it can be used that way, but I'd say he's hit the two ends of the spectrum there. Most people would mean bleak, dire, unpleasant, distressing", as in "I got some grim news about my cancer" or "It was a grim state of affairs in Washington".

Nice reference at the end there lol. It was grim for sure

[@theultimatetechguy]

I think thats the actual meaning of the word - like 'the grim reaper'. In slang it usually means disgusting, from what I've encountered.

You did so well ,you had a go all the words impressed😁😁

[@Omfgwhtavid]

I’ve never heard ‘dishy’ I was with you on this one 😂

As you like your liquid refreshment may I humbly suggest that when you finally get to visit UK you do so during Great Dorset steam Fair. Usual number of w. gdsf. co.uk for dates. Usually end of August. 2019 only had 50 ales in real ale tent. A couple were for those with no taste buds or as they say, those with an aquired taste for something different, though after a couple of mouthfuls you got used to it. Now I'm of up the frog and toad for a ball and chalk, avoiding the richard the thirds, to the rub a dub, that's if the trouble and stife will let me. First though I have to negotiate the apples and pears and put on my daisy roots. I could use the jam jar if I wasn't having a skinful. Now having had a pint of Dorothy Goodbody's Glorious IPA (Wye Valley Brewery) while watching your video I need to point percy at the porcelain.

There's another one. For off licence. When I was a kid. We called it a beer off.

[@theliquor6423]

An off license or "offy" for short is a shop that sells only different kinds of alcohol sometimes beer snacks too👍

[@danielgardecki1046]

There's no such thing as an *Off-License* in the US or the UK, as it's called an *Off-Licence.* There is no *S* in *Off-Licence* or any other *Licence.*
