At least you don't come from Essex Emma!!! I don't think anyone gets it as bad as us Essex girls (I'm not one by the way...well, not typically!!). I'm hoping actually, that non-Brits won't understand the whole Essex thing.....it's an awful stigma!! Celephaïs: I do know some cockney rhyming slang, but I don't usually use it in every day conversation....I live pretty close to East London, where it all started....and I did a bit of research into it before our interviews in case it came up!! : See if anyone understands this: Mum's on the dog, now get up them apples and cut your barnet!! There you go!! (that's a lame sentence by the way!!) Ellen xxx
Everywhere i go, people here im from somerset, and bingo they think im some kinda country gal, with a strong somerset accent and say "ooh ah" all the time! ok, so i do have a slight somerset accent, i do like the country, but i do not drive a tractor! Sarah
Mum's on the phone, get up stairs and cut your hair!! Dog & bone = phone Apples & Pears = stairs Barnet Fair = hair Cockney rhyming slang is always 'something/something' or 'something & something' and the word you use when you say it is the one that doesn't rhyme with the word you mean...does that make sense??? Ellen xxx
lol i cant believe how off topic this thread has gone......actually yes i can its just like every other topic! :
Alfie and Big Mo always use it in Eastenders.....but they should all use it in that programme...I mean, they're all supposed to be Cockneys!!! Big Mo always says 'me farmers are playing up' Farmer Giles = Piles! :-X Ellen xx
