Love Island is a disgrace to British Slang. All of the terms in this video were around long before Love Island was even a thing 😅

@vickyjones6873 17 күн бұрын
Came here to say this. 'Grafting' for example, has been around for a very long time and refers to 'working 'hard'. Nothing to do with pursuing romantic interests. Of course there will be colloquial differences to slang all across the UK, but using Love Island to teach these American teens about British slang is both a disservice to these teens and us British.

Some of these are new meanings brought about by shows like Love Island. For example, 'done bits' can also generally mean to do something well. 'Peng Sort' are actually two separate terms for attractive. Some people say 'peng', some say 'sort'. 'Grafting' just means working hard in general. But if you call something 'graft', it means an overly-difficult task - "building this shed is graft".

11 is a trick question. Any noun repurposed as a verb, which doesn't already exist as a verb, can be used to refer to being drunk. "I was absolutely gazebo'd last night" still works and people know what you mean. So all 4 could theoretically be correct.

Imagine if they realised that accents can change every 10 miles and there are over 50 Accents in England alone which is the size of OHIO !!!!!!! These Guys or any American would have little chance with "Cockney(London) Rhyming Slang" like "Trouble" for Wife" or "Saucepans" for children or " You're Having a Giraffe" which means "You're Joking"..

Exactly! Many Brits have no concept of how absolutely HUGE America is in relation to their small island nation. We're literally, like, a whole dang continent across. But though we also have regional accents, those areas are also MUCH bigger, and *usually* more or less intelligible. Some hard-core slang might be very regional and weird, but most people speaking normally would be able to understand each other- from Boston to Chicago to New York to Charleston to LosAngeles, etc. But England is just one small island nation, and though "English" is the shared language, regional accents are of small very concentrated areas, and can be quite strong and distinct! There's a reason why "My Fair Lady" is so true: British accents are highly regional. And slang is even a more fluid, ephemeral version of accent, changing with each generation, or even micro-generation.

Abdhi, you need to do regional slang, as you can tell your from the greater london region, different regions have different slang, so for pissed aka drunk, in Newcastle they say Mortal, Baby from where i am in Manchester i say bambino or baba, yet in Newcastle are Bern = Baby, still can't get me head around that, so my lil bro his wife calls the littlens Berns, my bro is a East Manc, Manc or Mancunian = Manchester, but his wife is either Mackem = Sunderland or Geordie = Newcastle, 1 thing you should never do is call a Mackem a Geordie or a Geordie a Mackem, the Accents may sound the same but there is actually a slight difference in how they pronounce words, if you call a Geordie a Mackem it is offensive or if you call a Mackem a Geordie it is also offensive, i found that out when 1st meeting my sister-in-laws friends and family, getting them wrong will cause a Riot or receiving a Blank eye and busted lip, so Abdhi you should do a British Regional slang reaction
