Goin on a languydg aperitif one of these days, maybe I'll get into one eng pal. Do you anouns do this in yur luvly countries?
That's pretty stupid, mon
unironically cringe
same with "buddy"
I say both lad and mate, and you cant stop me.
Russians are very fond of the word buddy when speaking English for some reason
only on the internet
pay copyrights
Been saying ''nonce'' all the time, lad. Feel like a proper bloke
my favourite british insult is 'pillock'
it's fun to say and you would just use it in the same way as moron or idiot
Why yes, I do support the development of a trans-Atlantic British/North American hybrid dialect
I use "cheers" is it a bong thing or Americans use too
no, we're not, you obsessed eastern euro fuck
>cringe
stopped reading there
I'm not anglo and english is not my native language so I'm entitled to use dude or lad interchangeably. Fight me brits and yanks
>he doesn't say butt, butty or boyo
Euhm.. I got directly in contact with both so I make a crazy mix when I speak. Usually neither could tell I'm Italian, while I don't sound native yet. Though, I luckily sound Brit accented for the mericans if I don't think about using my Cali accent and just talk as it comes. Same way Italians can't ever tell where I come from.
Anyway, brit>merican
>It's all going to plan
i deal more with muricans, especially on xbox live so I use dude way more often. But I've met a couple brits here in the past at pubs in the touristy area of my city and I tried to change my accent to fit in, kek
so are Hindu/Pakistani/Bangladeshi alcohol shop workers here, on top of calling people "boss"
really makes you think
no we don't really, at least not out of context of pic related
It's a bong thing. In America we only say it if we're bumping glasses.
Well there is different "buddy"s tho; mericans say yooo bèriii
Northern Brits say hey bhudi very quick
yeah they say boss here too
>Anyway, brit>merican
In the same way that terrone>northern italian yes
>mericans say yooo bèriii
What
>yeah they say boss here too
Hmm that's actually very strange.
etymonline.com
still sick
twelve grams inna zip
I forgot this too
etymonline.com
but it's from 1640s American English from bastardized Dutch, which predates EIC
I prefer Mate
not surprised
any ladders?
>despite my lack of british heritage
Think again russian oil millionaire
Based
Not talking about people, just accents.
Northern Italians nearly don't have a dialect anymore and southerners do, so quite yes, mo' interesting languages
Americans say buddy the same way Brits do, but generally slower t.b.h. I can't even imagine "bèriii" outside of saying Barry or berry
Huh too difficult by texting.
Often Brits spell the U like it is, as "music". Buddy. As "pan" and "can" for Brits A and mericans say "pèn and Ken". Mericans say bàry.
I say potato you say potato, I say tomato you say tomato
What else should I say? "Mate" sounds like you want to have sex with the person you're speaking to, "buddy" and "pal" sound too passive aggressive, "man" and "dude" sound too American, "fellow" sounds redneck, and "friend" sounds antiquated.
>be me
>londoner
>go to kebab shop
>guy at the front says "yes, boss, what can i get you?"
>"the usual, bossman. lamb with the salad on the side."
>guy give me order
>"thanks, bruv"
And it has been like that for years.
>cockney assuming doner kebabs have recipe variants
Forgot to add "for years ever since I came to this country". I want to go back to the mediterranean, but even though I hate this piece of shit city, I still love it.
I love London. But too darn posh for my wallet
Where ya from non cockney?
