The GOT Dictionary and Colourful Words Appendix

[ijjysmith]

Please could the word 'bish' be added to the dictionary please?

 

[Merseyzig]

Can't be arsed to go through every post in this boss thread, but do 'texan' and 'taigs' make it?
"That Henderson, proper queg him lad"
"Is right lad he's a total texan"
"Bet his bird's got tasty taigs, like"

I once mentioned 'taig' in front of a mate from Ireland, so NB to Irish forummers, in Liverpool taig means something totally different.

Phenomenal : unsure of meaning at this time

Heroic post <3

Always loved that with you and Nik in days gone by kid, then you went off the radar for a while, i wrongly thought Nik had claimed the battle.

Damn it mods, a rematch would explode the tinternet, theses two boys in a cage will burst the GOT coffers FFS!!

Understand that, but did it originate in Liverpool, I'm wondering? We used it all the time when I was a kid there years ago.

Many bloody years ago!

We didn't have a lot to be chuffed about in those days, now I think about it, but hey oh, we were an optimistic, cheerful lot in our two up - two down Victorian terraces.

The origin and usage of said chuffed :

I mentioned 'queg' earlier but remembered that in 'Moby [Poor language removed] ' one of the characters is called Queequeg. Now Herman Melville was atuned to Liverpool dialect more than most Americans, perhaps there's some deep literary connection going on.



Or is it just a combination of 'queer' (don't shoot me, I ain't calling anybody it) and 'smeg'?

I need a proper etymological explanation for the existence of this noun or else.

I think those from elsewhere (outside L4) should share their favorite local expression that means nothing outside their postal code.

Where do I start?
