Cockney Rhyming Slang

[ADRIAN01225]

It's not what it said sub cruiser=boozer jimmy riddle = puddle dong diddly dub = pub tom tits = shits ale murey = surrey

[muzic4evanescence]

Dog and bone - phone

[IdaSputum]

you're Radio you are

Radio rental ---- mental

[thewildplaces]

Burnt Cider = Windows???

[kevvingtons]

The trick is to only say the first word of the rhyming pair that substitutes for the actual word.

EG. i might say, "Last night, i told the 'Trouble' "get up them apples, I'm gonna rip yer alan's off." "?

Trouble =trouble n strife (wife) apples n pairs = stairs, alan whickers=knickers

The most convoluted is Aris substituted for Arse or rectum.

"aris"= "Aristotle"= "bottle"="bottle and glass"= "arse" Most easily found in the local fruit and meat markets of east and se London.

[999LDS]

Lady Godiva = fiver .

Drum and bass = place

[KevinJKtheman]

Some of these ryming slangs are correct, ie, apples and pears,(stairs) sausage and mash,(cash) however, Alan Wickers (knickers) Britany Spears (Beers) are modern rymes, not necesarily coined by "cockneys", and "Bottle of glass" refers to arse, not class, hence the sayings, "lost your bottle", "bottle job" or " his bottles gone" Go and talk to some real old time cockneys, they'll put you straight, "me old china plate"

[CheryPendragonMakeUp]

i'm from east london and i've never used or heard those words in my life. o.O

[spenseryoung]

I will have a J. Arthur all over your beck khyber boat! I will then proceed to have a richard in your barnet which will then pen like raspberries. WoooHAA!

[fluffymole0913]

@spenseryoung You got the cockney rhyming bit, but no cockey is ever gonna say "I will then proceed to" are you for real?

[TheSuarve]

90% of these are Jekyll & hide = snide, = it's not Bonnie & Clyde.Gregory Peck = neck, not bushel & peck. It's Adam & Eve = believe not christmas eve. It's Bake potatoe said potata = see ya later not Christian Slater. You got some correct.. Most of all when us cockney's speak we cut alot of the rhyming out for example i'd say, you ain't got a danny, for clue that's all, not danny la rue...

[cockneyboy09]

@TheSuarve

You ain't got a scooby!

[TheSuarve]

@cockneyboy09 Call yourself cockneyboy09  & you say ain't got a scooby! come on, name just one i said wrong. For the record this scooby crap is what they say on silly old bill shows from Essex.

[TheOriginalLordMike]

As a West Ham man who was has lived with this language for over sixty years I must say that most of these rhymes are total bollocks - you´d better adam it.

[ConeRulezZ]

@BaReClanLeader oh okay then my bad... good to know the proper one :)

[ConeRulezZ]

@BaReClanLeader I saw Green Street Hooligans, too. And I think it was 'bees and honey for money' :)

[cockneyboy09]

[Zero7evenX]

lol, This video was made by someone who Isn't a cockney.

Some of them were back to front, some were incorrect, some are Never used (never heard of them) and some are new words entirely (modern colloquial crap spoken in different regions)

Not only that, you missed the most common and obvious slang out the list.

Cockney rhyming can be 4 conversions (4 different rhymes) from the actual meaning.

This video baked my cannister.

[hamjamnspamalot]

Plus, Cockney slang was brought over to Australia due to a good number of English convicts being Cockneys.....and you might catch a few of the old Anglo-Australian grandparents saying "Captain (Cook)" (look), "dead horse" (sauce).....some say they might be the last generation to use Aussie rhyming slang as their kids (now in their 40-60's) pretty stopped using it, deeming it somewhat unfashionable growing up.

[hamjamnspamalot]

I think there are also some variations....it all depends on some people, what generation they're from, etc. Eg: I had an uncle who was a copper in London, who, when he visited Sydney, would tell me as a kid "...'am n eggs" (legs), "Giz a butcher's a' tha'..." (give us a look) "Sherman Tankers" (wankers) etc. Then say 15 years later when I made friends with Cockneys over here, we started inventing phrases like "Jimmy Smits" (the actor) as rhyming slang for "shits" and so on.

[jackrc18]

@hamjamnspamalot My favourite Aussie one was 'Seppo's' which stood for septic tank = yank where we would use 'battle tank'. Equally apt.

[MrPaperclip11]

rasberry ripple= cripple berkely hunt= cunt

[Gillogram2008]

What about "Tilbury Docks" = Socks

"Hampstead Heath" = Teeth

[VoL7aGeX]

[hrford]

When you really don't want people to know what you were talking about, it's common to drop the rhyming word at the end and just use the first word. e.g. "I'm gonna get some bangers"

[RiggityRyan72]

@Mario2009BR Hi Mario...I got it from the Audio Swap.....sorry I didnt answer sooner, ive been at it non stop lately, not had a lot of time to go onto youtube. but biloxisean answered it for me

[Caitilyn325]

This is absolutely ace!

[xxAlchemistressxx]

amazing how people can make sense of something completely (seemingly) random! One hell of a secret language i'd say (it was back in the day, i believe...)!

[KnochenMann87]

so, how does it work? if there's noise you'd say : what's up with the box of toys over there? i dont get it haha

[ChristineDiana]

@KnochenMann87: you just say the part that doesn't rhyme. So, "whats up with the box over there?"

Or, "Climb those apples." There are some cases where you say the whole phrase. Like, "Would you Adam and Eve it?" "Would you believe it?"

Its complicated. But we're unique. :D

[welovelanguages]

@KnochenMann87

the bin lids were making a right box of toys....for example

[limbdarkening]

@welovelanguages I just don't understand this. What the hell does that mean?!

[welovelanguages]

yeah, thats right, bangers and mash....but a sausage and mash is to have a crash....an accident, last week he had a sausage and mash in the motor

[65earwig]

@welovelanguages a sausage & mash in the "jam",, jam jar= car :)

[thekay72]

I'm pretty sure bangers and mash is a breakfast of sausages and potatoes is it not?

[cheyennebritbrat]
