I want to learn more about where you are from!   

Give me the ability to bantz like a local no matter where I wander!

You can choose something useful or crazy, just share something that maybe only someone from your country or area would know.  

To Play:

♣ Leave one (1) slang word or phrase in the comments.

( It can be in your native language if you prefer )

♣ Reply to your comment with the translation.

 (Please include the origin: What country / city it's from.  etc) 


 It will look like this:

I'll do a ramble in the near future reading your slang and try to guess what they mean.  

Then I'll check your reply to see if I'm right!


I also won't be reading this thread at all so there is less chance for me to be spoiled before the ramble.  Hopefully the idea is pretty straight forward 

1.  Slang. (your language or in English is grand)

2. Reply with meaning/ facts etc

3. Wait for me to mangle it in a ramble 😝 


 Can't wait to hear from you!

Depending on the Context it has multiple meanings so it could mean suspicious or shady or strange or weird so you could say. ‘He was acting really booky you know’ or ‘I’m not gonna touch that it looks booky’ this word is from South LONDON- I am not from here but I picked it up when I moved here lol

I'm from the Midwest part of the United States. We call all carbonated beverages pop. But my mom is from down south. A favorite expression of theirs' is, "Bless your heart". Which could be sympathetic, but typically means you are throwing shade 😂

"Ope!" is a big thing in the Midwestern U.S. It's just something we say for no apparent reason. Every once in a while, someone might use "Ope" instead of "Oops" or "Oh no". But other than that, it's usually just a general expression of surprise or interest. That's really the best way that I can explain it to you. It's dumb, but, it's ours. 😂

In Spanish means "being cute" or "you're so cute" but just "mono" also means "monkey" haha. I'm from Bilbao, north Spain 💜

From Mumbai/India. It's an exclamation used very commonly. Arey can roughly mean oh/hey, yaar translates to friend/mate but when used together it would be to express frustration/irritation like "oh God" "oh no" "listen" , it's difficult to explain haha but it depends on the context.

That means you can sick about everything you wanr but not about God. I am from Saarland Germany. Where I come from you talk like that. My grandparents talk much worse and I don't even get what they want sometimes. But when you ask around most people say nazi Germany or something. And that is not a fact. Most people I now are very open and nice. But down here it is different. Today you get greetings only from kids or older people in a village but not in a city. I prefer Saarland as a "Kaff" cause I thought there is nothing to see here but that is not true. So if you want to come down here you can. I can show you a little around. So yeah

Well in the south in the USA alot of time we say "bless your heart" which can have 2 meanings sometimes 3. One meaning can mean basically "you didn't understand that the first time they told you?" Or the nice way of saying they did something stupid. Number 2 can actually mean bless your heart as in "oh my god you are going through a hard time". Usually said this way in the south most of the time because hey we all go through tough times and having a blessing of any kind is good. Number 3 kindof goes with number 1 but is usually used on someone you really dislike who is complaining just for sympathy, not because they have something truly going on but just to get attention. So you would say "well just bless your heart then" in a tone that basically means "shut up I know you're doing it for attention." Its all about tone on how its meant. Another which my grandfather loves to say is "I'll be john brown." Which basically saying "I learned something new or I didnt know that".

I’m from Buenos Aires, Argentina and we use the word “boluda” to call a woman or “boludo” to call a guy that they are silly. The expression would be ¡que boluda! We don’t usually use it for this purpose. We also use it to call someone’s attention, and it would have to be for a person that you already know, otherwise, it would be an insult. So, the phrase “Che, boluda...” literally means “hey, you!”

"speedgoat " is slang for pronghorn antelope. It's used in the state of Wyoming, USA. Pronghorn antelope are not actually antelope; they are more closely related to goats, hence the "goat" part of speedgoat. The "speed" is because they are very fast, obviously. In fact, they are the fastest land mammal in North America! Fun fact: There are more speedgoats in Wyoming than people. It is also the name of a pretty good taco place in Laramie, Wyoming.

If you are psyched for something, you are really excited for it. So lets say there was a concert, your friend might ask "Dude, are you going to the show this weekend?" And your response could be "Hell yeah, I am so psyched!" And if something is "gnarly" its intens or in some way "oh my god" worthy. If I hurt myself somehow, and ended up with a big nasty bruise, id say it was gnarly. You visit the beach and the water looks rough, "Those are some gnarly waves". Someone tries to do a trick on a skateboard or a snowboard and it goes completely sideways "ooh! Man that was gnarly!"

Yikes... most of my slang comes from my weird way of pronouncing things in French; that's weird compared to Parisian French, mind. I'm Acadian, which means I'm a descendant of the French who established colonies in the Maritime provinces on Canada's East coast in the 16-1700s, before the English tried to boot us out. My ancestors on my mom's side were among those who went off to Québec for a while, but later descendants returned to New Brunswick. There were some of those whom the English had deported who decided to settle in Louisiana (still under French and Spanish rule at the time), which is where Cajuns come from. Cajun is actually from a mispronunciation of the word Acadien (Acadian). Interesting pronounciations from mom's side would be a dialect known as Joual (pronounced jwal): English/French/Joual Hair/Cheveux/Jueu (pronounced jwuh, like imagine the "e" sound from "mermaid," only there is no "r" to follow) Devil/Diable/Jiable (pronounced like the word job, only with an "ee" sound following the "j") Also, while the French word for Skunk is supposed to be Mouffette (moofet, make sure to pronounce the "t"), people from my mom's region would say "bête puante" (bait poo-aunt), which literally translates to stinky beast. A lot of Acadian French, at least from New Brunswick, is contracting words so that sentences seem to run on. English: "What are you doing tonight? There's a new restaurant on King's street which is supposed to be very good." French: "Qu'est ce que vous fesez ce soir? Il y un nouveau restaurant sur la rue King qui semblera être superbe." Acadian: "Cosse-tu fait à soère? Y'a un nouveau resto sur la King qu'y est s'poser d'être bon." I feel like trying to write that out phonetically would be really complicated... if you have a way for me to send you an audio file, let me know and I'll record it ^^;;

"Sisu "

A term used for a guy who puts his everything into a girl, just to bang. It could also be loosely used to call someone desperate, or say that they’ve changed their whole personality to get someone to like them. I’m form Texas, USA, but I see this term being used a lot on the internet.

PUTANGINA! (yes, all caps and with exclamation) Other forms TANGINA, TENGENE, TAENA if you wanna be cutesy XD

Anonymous

When you translate it, it means Puta = Bitch, Ina = Mother, so literally son of a bitch. One of my fave words hahaha, useful to know in the Philippines in case someone's cussing you out. But I don't use it literally, I use it more as an expression or expletive. 1. "putangina mo malandi ka" (fuck you, you flirt) 2. "Ay putangina. Tinakot mo'ko!" (Oh fuck, you scared me!)

These are US Millitary because that was were I 'lived'. Jodie On the trail Days and a wake up

Belloya

1. "Him? He's her Jodie until Mike gets home." A Jodie is the person you sleep with while your partner is deployed. Can be a positive or a negative depending on how honest your are with your partner. 2. "This is her third time on the trail, I feel bad for the newbies" an Army sergeant who trains the recruits. Or a drill sergeant. 3. "Only 13 days and a wake up untill I am back home." Its a way of counting down time.

Yes Gael!!! Here’s some Aussie slang for you - Budgie Smugglers 🐦

Anonymous

Answer - Speedos - Tight fitting bathers - Looks like a penis owner is transporting a small bird... Note - there’s a bloody hilarious Australian TV show called Kath and Kim. The character Kath is married to a man called Kel. In one episode they’re on a beach holiday and Kel makes a comment about his budgie smugglers. Kath then compliments him with “Budgie smugglers? More like cockatoo smugglers, doll!” 😂

Naatitaan. It's a slang word used as a verb in Finnish. As an example it could be used in a sentence like this "Nyt naatitaan oikein kunnolla." It translates to "Let's_________ properly" 😆 can you guess what it means?

"Nur ein Schwein trinkt allein!" Germany 🇩🇪

This basically translates to "only a pig drinks alone" 😂 and it's used when you're out with friends and someone downs a drink or is attempting to fill up their glass when others aren't, so basically it's a saying that goes with you downing your drink too or asking (in a very informal/funny way) to get a refill too 😁👌🏼

"Okos kolbász" in Hungarian 🇭🇺 Tr.: "smart sausage" Ex.: "You are one smart sausage indeed..."

Anonymous

What you really mean by "okos kolbász" is "hülye fasz/pöcs" - "hülye" means stupid and "fasz/pöcs" are one of many words for penis (would pick dick/cock for these respectively). So, basically, you say they are a stupid prick by sarcastically calling them a 'smart sausage'. Note: you may use it both between your friends and people you dislike depending on your tone.

jazz

Prepare for some Low German, because my fellow Germans already provided some good normal German stuff! Wiesnöös. (Wees-nuhhs, in an American pronunciation)

jazz

Literally, it translates to "wise nose", but it really means "wise guy", as in "someone who knows everything better and will correct you" :D Low German is commonly mistaken for a dialect, but it actually is a whole language! It's seldomly written and mostly taught through word-of-mouth. It's spoken in parts of North Germany. I can only understand it and only know a few words.

A 3 way in cincinnati is pasta, cincinnati chili (we use brown sugar and cinnamon instead of peppers and beans), and cheese. There’s also a 4 way (with onions). And I think a 5 way but that’s too much for me 😉

It can mean to shout or yell across the room in a positive way. It is also a term for a community way deep in the mountains of southern Kentucky. 😊

This means "the details", or the "scoop". We say it here in New York State , and I assume, elsewhere in USA. Also , you can say, "What's the 411?", meaning "what's going on?". This comes from the phone number you call when you want to know the number of an agency or government service. 😘😘😘😘😅😅😅😅

That's wet.

KizzyAnel

Meaning specifically, a jump shot in basketball that is on it's way in. But has recently expanded into more popular slang to just blanketly take the place of "that's cool" (Pacific NW, USA)

KizzyAnel

"Yeah...no" and conversely "No ... yeah"

KizzyAnel

"Yeah ...no" means "nope" as in: "did you understand what they were explaining during the meeting?" ... "yeah . [About that] no [I didnt understand it]" (SoCal aka Southern California, USA)

“It makes me no never mind.”

You don’t care either way. “It makes no difference to me.” I live in New York state in the US, but I’m not sure if it’s a northern or southern saying. I moved all over as a child so my slang was picked up all over the US, and Scotland.

Anonymous

I'm Minnesotan, and that's where I hear it most, but this is a colloquialism that's all over the midwestern United States. It's kinda like a calm exclamation, generally said if you accidentally bumped into someone or dropped something inconsequential, but I also hear it in anticipation of some kind of action, like your pet is about to do something stupid or 2 drunk guys are about to fight. In general, it's an expression of mild surprise. My boyfriend is from the East coast and has spent so much time around me that he's picked it up and is adorably annoyed by it

The Jersey slide

Anonymous

New Jersey, USA: a move made while driving where the driver quickly moves from the far left lane of the highway to the exit on the far right. Usually the driver will put their blinker (if they use their blinker at all) on and keep it on until they are on the exit on the other side of the highway without pausing in any of the lanes they move across.

Cherry Riley

Ruidoso, New Mexico, USA - It was the first intersection placed in the town and was the place of our first ever stop light. It divides the two villages of Ruidoso and Ruidoso Downs (Greentree) and splits Highway 70 into Interstate 54 on one side and Sudderth drive on the other. It's the place we base all our directions on. lol

I’m from Louisiana and that’s how you eat a crawfish! I’m no even sure if you’ll know what a crawfish is, but think of a mini lobster, and we boil a LOT of those outside with spicy seasoning, potatoes, corn on the cob, etc. My family can make quick work of 300 pounds at a crawfish boil!

Oh no, I forgot to participate in this thread 😱 So, I have two French slang phrases for you : "Mêle toi de ton cul" which is a vulgar way of saying mind your own business (mind your own ass 😅) "Redis moi ça sans trembler des genoux" = dare to say that again (Say this again without having your knees trembling) and it often leads to a heated argument XD

No Cap

For an example “Hey man I met this fine ass girl” “Seriously? Like no cap?” It’s a cringy slang, but it would mean “I’m not lying” if I’m correct, I don’t even know a lot of slangs so I hope this one isn’t a doozy (:
