Cheeky means: you are flippant, have too much lip or are a bit of a smart ****! Generally you are considered to be a bit cheeky if you have an answer for everything and always have the last word
Sod - This word has many uses. My father always used to say "Oh Sod!" or "Sod it!" if something went wrong and he didn't want to swear too badly in front of the children. If someone is a sod or an "old sod" then it means they are a bit of a bastard or an old git. "Sod off" is like saying "piss off" or "get lost" & "sod you" means something like "f*** off". It also means a chunk of lawn of course. You can usually tell the difference

It's a very jovial and light-hearted comment to say. I'm not fully aware of how much an American would understand of it, so I'll go to basics just in case. 'Cheeky' could be said to somebody that crossed the line or is a little bit presumptuous. If a child was being offered one sweet and they asked for two, they could be said to be being cheeky. A 'sod' is literally a clump of grass although it's similar to a 'git' in British English. It's again a very mild term (but you wouldn't call anybody you didn't really know it) for somebody. By itself it's very difficult to define, but you often hear 'cheeky sod' or 'cheeky git'. You wouldn't call the child who asked for the extra sweet either of these though, you would just say 'cheeky'.

One cannot answer this question because the meaning of 'American' isn't clear: - A person or attribute of South or North America - A person or attribute of the indigenous peoples of South or North America - A citizen or attribute of the ’United States of America’: the political correct term is 'US-American' Which 'Americans' do you mean? From North or South America? And from which country in one of theese 2 continents called 'America'? 'American' for 'US-American' is geographically and politically not correct. This is a FACT not an OPINION.

I think 'cheeky sod' is a lot like the American expression 'smart a$$'. 'Sod' in this case, BTW, does not refer to a 'clump of grass' but rather is a clipped form of 'sodomite' (cf. bugger).
