Foreign Slang that You Use?

[shadyh8er]

There are 7 billion people in the world, there is no way I'm the only person who uses slang that isn't native to my birth country (USA). So just list the slang you use and what country said slang is from.

I mostly use Trini slang like:


Bust a Lime = To hang out

You Call Goat Mouth on Me! = You jinxed me!

Donkey Years = For a long time.


I'll also use a little bit of British like "wank," "bollocks," or "pants."

And I use one French one which translates to "I have other cats to flog."

I can speak fluent weeaboo but I hide my powerlevel since it's not a good thing.

 

[Broady Brio]

I tend to use German. Probably in the wrong gender too.

Such as Neine. Das ist nicht gut. Meine vater/mutter/schwester/bruder.

 

[Erttheking]

I use occasional british swears like twat, you can blame that one on Yahtzee.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

I use quite a few American mannerisms, like 'guy', 'dude'.

Other than that, I'm English through and through (without the racism )

 

[Amethyst Wind]

Well I occasionally use 'mataku' which roughly translates to 'for fuck's sake', so there's some Japanese, plus I know a few Mandarin words for idiot/moron (ben-dan or shagua).

I also throw the occasional Cybertronian 'scrap' or 'slag' in there.

 

[DoPo]

I'm using English, ain't I? Arse.

 

[Aris Khandr]

When frustrated, I have been known to use both "Noy jitat!" and "Suck an elf!". I make use of some British English slang as well, but I grew up around more people who spoke that dialect of English than many others, so it doesn't feel foreign to me.

I say "eh" at the end of my sentences sometimes. I think it's listening to the LRRcast/my general obsession with Canada that did it. Seriously, those guys have freaking GLOW IN THE DARK DINOSAUR COINS and all we get is Millard Filmore!
My use of "eh" even prompted my English teacher to ask if I was from Canada. I'm not, however, but I could probably pass as a Canadian if I needed to.

I'm english through and through with the racism, just kidding without. And I don't use any foreign slang, I live in scotland(FREEDOM!) and I don't even use their slang in fact most of it annoys me. I'll make a list of the ones I find especially annoying, "pish", "bawbag", "I canny", "mind this?/I canny mind", "do you ken?", "pal", "aye yae wee bastart", that's all I can think of for now. Wait, I know a word I like from scottish slang "arse piece" such an awesome phrase.

That depends on your pronunciation. Be sure to call a roof a R-wolf howl-f instead of a ruff, call a route a root, and add a u to the proper words.

As for me, I tend to use british slang every now and then. Especially yob. Such a funny word. Yob.

You mean the roof of a house?
And by "wolf howl", do you mean pronouncing it more like "rowf"?

As a patronising superscillious Englishman, my first reaction was 'that's not Canadian pronunciation, that's just correct'.

Mostly I use general anglo-american idioms (there are a lot which i couldn't say which side of the Atlantic they originated on).A few specifically Scottish ones slip in now and again, and I occasionally replace my usual swear words with made up ones from whatever book/programme i'm watching at the time. ie. smeghead,d'arvit,frell.

Yes, it's more of an "oooh" sound like moo than a short o sound.

Ah, okay. I usually pronounce it that way anyway.
Now I can infiltrate your people!
Wahahahaha~!

KY, Japanese: Stands for ?Kuki Yomenai", or Clueless person.

I'm Finnish, and often I'm more familiar with the terminology of some special fields (like biology) in English and end up using English words when talking about that stuff on my native language. That is kinda common with people who use special terminology. Since so much of the material we read on it it is in English, we might not know the Finnish words for it. If they even exist.

I also tend to use British terminology a lot, but then again, English is not my native language in the first place...
