American Girls and British/English Accents... I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOUR SLANG! lol

So basically I'm having a hard time understanding what your slang words mean.. I'm thinking that you all should help me out (: And I apologize for using the word "like" every 5 seconds.. I tend to do that when I"m nervous :P

snogging = french kissing/making out etc.

give me a tinkle = call me

reg = kinda grimy clothes

posh = very overly fancy/smart

chips = french fries

mate = colloquial meaning buddy/pal/friend

So if youre ever around england mate, give me a tinkle and we can go get some fish and chips and I'll buy some posh clothes to replace my regs and you never know..we might end up snogging ;D

I joke! youre such a cutie though :)

And what you call chips, the things in the packet, we call them crisps :P Just thought I would let you know that :) x

If you struggle with slang just dont try cockney rhyming slang. Its funny though. Apple and pears and all that jazz! :)

posh comes from the phrase - port out, starboard home. Because when travelling to Africa in the 19th and 20th centuries, the rich/fancy people would be able to purchase rooms on the side facing Africa (and the better views). Hence, they were on the port side (left) going out and starboard (right) coming back.

hope I educated at least one person... but I doubt anyone cares :s
