I think I've got one, is a Scouser (sp) the same as a Ned?
thinks he/she is clever, drinks for the sake of it, tries to be friendly but p***es everyone off and is the arch nemissis of "giffiks".
note: female neds known as "ginas" due to exessive fake tan resulting in a close resemblence to an orange drink.

This reminds me of the Simpsons where they go to Australia.
"Their In the lift, in the lorie, and all over the mulunga guilderchuck!"
"They's like kangaroos but they's reptiles they is."
"We have them in America, they're called bullfrogs."
"What?! That's an odd name, I would've called em chazwozers."
 

I only pretend to know what I'm talking about. Heck, that's what lawyers, car mechanics, and IT professionals do everyday.

Heh! settle down there! You forgot the 'bongwizza'.
Although the spelling's not too bad.............lol Grin Wink

"Ahhh.......it's just a little kick in the bum!"  Grin Grin Grin

With regard to the 'Sunday Dinner' you mention, Hagar. We have much the same 'tradition' which is also dying out (if not completely gone except for some rare households). Many of our traditions are of English origin anyway, given that that's where we originated ourselves (except for us Irish! Grin).

Although the bit about waiting for 'dad' to get home from the pub. ON A SUNDAY MORNING?
Our pubs have only been open on Sundays for the last 20 years or so.
Also, being Catholic, there would be no time for a pub visit between Mass and Lunch..........lol Grin Grin Wink

They're not the only ones that "Scrunch" words together.... Here in the states, some area's of California have like folks that like talk like totally off the hook! They'll ask you "what's up" by saying " 'sup?". Or, "What are you eating?" comes out like "What'cha e'in?". They say "Hi" to a life long school friend, by saying " 'Sup, Dog"? And, they call their 1982 Chevy their "Hoopty"!

English is probably the most difficult language to learn and master, because of all dem dang fool slang words!

True, but you need a translator to understand British slang, it's a totally different language Grin
