Anyone from England/Britain?

Question

I'm writing a story and I need to know some English/British terms that teens use over there, as well as American translations... Anyone?

thanks!! that helps me so much, you don't know!

Answer 1

I know some slang but most of it is insulting:

'meff' = 'scruffy', 'poor' , 'loser '
'ming'= 'loser'
'slapper' = 'hoe'
'up yer jaksee' = basically 'up your a-s-s' - an insult
'toe-rag' = 'naughty'

some less insulting:

'the offy' = meaning 'the off license' - its a liquor store and they sell sweets too

'chippy' = 'the chip shop'

'sag off' = to bunk school

and thats all i can thinnk of :)

Answer 2

fit = hot (person)
chav = slightly equivalent to trailer trash
pissed/ratted/rat arsed/wrecked = drunk
f a g = cigarette

umm... can't think of any others, I guess I don't use a lot of slang, there's wanker but you probably understand that one anyway.
