So this used to live elsewhere on a Sundee but ya know wot it deserves its own home. So the concept is simple...following the alphabet list a slang word that's normal for you, an example and a translation (those Scottish lasses, The Wees, have some pearlers).

 

Those trixy letters can be skipped although we do encourage @Sslip's Algebraic Law Of X, or playing a SLOX where you start with x= ## and the number starts your play...or, X=69 😉

 

Spose I betta go first..

 

Avo.

pronounced Av-oh

Example: yeah-NAH ta, I'll av some avo on me sanga.

Translation: yes thanks, I'll have some avocado on my sandwich.

Mongrel 

 

Considering I live in a country where ya call ya enemies mate and ya mates cvnts.....this is actually a pretty big insult. It denotes a person or behaviour who is lower than low.

 

Gee that Toby Green is a real mongrel. Did ya see him kick Dahlhaus in the face. Total mongrel act.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
