AMERICAN Tries To GUESS British SLANG! | British Slang Quiz

[@Pulpdiction1999]

Turn-up is not cuff, turn-ups are what you have at the bottom of your trousers, or chinos or slacks or pants... if you have a little bit turned up - a crumb catcher. A cuff is usually the end of your sleeve in the UK, either on a jumper or a jacket, never heard them referred to as turn ups in the UK. However you may turn up your cuff, it's still a cuff but it's turned up, or you may 'roll up your sleeves'. Which also means get stuck in and do some work.

Argument = row ( as in COW) Baby carriage = pram ( as in SAM ) From the word PARAMBULATOR ( original word for PRAM) Chequers = draughts ( as in DRAFTS) Kerosene = paraffin ( PARA as in PARAchute and FIN ). PERIOD in the UK means woman's " monthly cycle" !!

Bobby comes from Sir Robert Peel who was a the politician who was responsible for the formation of the first police force in the U.K., they were colloquially known as “Bobby’s boys” which eventually became bobbies.

[@Dasyurid]

Hey JT, that was an ok score. Couple of the ones you missed have pronunciation booby traps too. Row, as in an argument, rhymes with cow so people know it’s nothing to do with propelling a boat with oars, and the game of draughts is pronounced exactly like drafts. Also cold air coming in around a badly fitted door or window is also a draught, beer served on tap is a draught beer, a massive horse bred for pulling wagons (often beer wagons) is a draught horse, and someone who creates detailed engineering drawings is a draughtsman. All these are pronounced exactly like ‘draft’, and I assume we spell them that way for the same reason that ‘ugh is pronounced as an ‘f’ sound in words like cough and rough. But if you’ve written an early version of a letter, speech or script then that is spelled draft. We haven’t had a military draft for a long time and don’t have any sports with drafts, but we know what those terms mean and would spell them with an f.

Contrary to what some are saying we do say turnups not cuffs for trousers, and we do say silencer not muffler.

"Slang" is a misnomer for some of these words. My definition of "slang" is words or phrases you would not use in formal speech or in formal writing. Most of these British words are the formal words used in British English for these objects or concepts e.g. knickers, jumper, torch, lorry, dummy, motorway etc. "Loo" and "snog", I would agree, are slang.

• The English call a sausage a 'banger', because when cooked they often explode their skins, usually with a bang or a pop. • The baby carriage is a 'pram', because it is an abbreviation of 'perambulator', a thing that we use to walk [ambulate] somebody around [per]. To perambulate itself means to walk about or meander. • The 'row' that is an argument rhymes with 'how' and 'now', not with 'throw'. • 'Draughts' is pronounced like a 'draught' when air comes in through an open door or window" like 'laugh' with a tee on the end, what Americans would spell as 'drafts'. • 'Paraffin' is pronounced as PA·ra·FIN, like 'parachute'. • And 'brolly' is simply a corruption of the B-R-L within 'umbrella': in the 1800s it even used to be called a 'brelly' first, before it became 'brolly'. Incidentally, an umbrella theoretically differs from a 'parasol', in that a parasol shades us from the sun [Latin sol = sun], but an umbrella shades us from anything [Latin umbra = shade], but more so from the rain. • Curiously, 'diaper' used to be used in English from the mid-1300s until fairly recently.

One car part they didn't include in that quiz is fender, which is 'wing' here in the UK. It might crop up in a future quiz. Some people still call door mirrors 'wing mirrors' as a throwback as some older cars had the mirrors mounted on the front wings. While paraffin in the UK is the same thing as kerosene in the US (aviation fuel), the US meaning of paraffin is what we call 'paraffin wax' over here in the UK (the white wax tea lights and cheap candles are made of).

[@chrisperyagh]

No, you're wrong. Bumper is bumper on both sides and fender (US) is wing (UK). There were such things as '5mph bumpers' that were fitted to cars in the '70s and '80s in the US which looked fine on their land yachts, but ridiculous on most European and Japanese imports - especially small cars like the 1st generation Honda Civics sold in the US. I lived in Canada and they used the same terminology - there was even an automotive spares company called 'Bumper to Bumper' there. Search "VW front fender" as an example and tell me what you find - it definitely won't be bumpers.

Virtually none of the so called slang is such, virtually all are just ordinary every day terms, and there are others that don't match each other for instance chips are not and never have been fries, chips, fries and French fries are all different. Also sweets is a general term for sweet things including chocolate, chocolates, sugary sweets some of which are candies. Jumpers are very different from sweaters. Also a kiss is just a quick kiss like from a parent to a child or to another relative or friend whereas a snog is usually a prolonged passionate kissing of the type when people are being intimate. And many other complete differences.

[@willluddington]

In all fairness, this reads like it was written by an older gentleman, or some time ago - some of these words aren't really used much (with what I hear more often in brackets) i.e. codswallop (bollocks), boffin (swot, clever clogs, etc. - with it being derogatory, it's usually a constructed insult), silencer (which I don't think I've ever heard referring to a car's lower exhaust component), subway (underpass), turn-ups (cuffs), paraffin (which is used for lamps and such, but kerosene when it's used in aircraft, despite being the same thing). A banger is usually when paired with mash, and they're sausages when not (i.e. you wouldn't have a banger sandwich). A lorry is a cabin with a long trailer (18-wheelers), and a van is a smaller commercial vehicle. We don't really have pickup trucks, but that style of car is usually lumped in with all 4x4s and SUVs, and maybe called a flatbed 4x4 if it's relevant. Bobby (derived from Robert Peel, who "invented" policing) is uncommon, but there's so many names for rozzers! Watch "Is It The Police?" by The Horne Section on YT for some more British police nicknames. Otherwise it's pretty accurate! Flannel shirts in the UK are either "flannel" or "plaid" (pron: plad). Nowadays mobile sounds a bit odd cause landlines are now the rarer object, so they're just phones. Last thing that stuck out is "row" - pretty common word, but you say the "ow" like if you stub your toe (row, not roh). Also, considering how little British culture penetrates the American market, you did a stellar job! Us Brits see a lot of American cultural influence so the other way round is very easy.
