Upon my word! Most of those words I've learned from my English language books, or from literature, and I use them online. Never knew I could come across as a posh person. Toodle-pip, old chaps!
Many above are still used as general daily language today: How do you do?, Cheerio, Chap. Darling, Dear (without the 'my'), Ghastly, frightful, glorious, marvellous, gosh, Heaven forbid (rahter than God forbid), Well I never, chin-chin and hear, hear. Also another way of sayng 'goodbye' would be 'ta-ta for now'. Within sentances: "He was very nice chap", Darling, can also be used between platonic friends "could you be a darling and pass me my coat", "Really darling, that just wont do", "What a ghastly colour", "Frightful weather outside" when torrential rain, snow blizzard etc , "What a glorious day" either beutiful sunny weather or havind.had a lovely day out somewhee that was really enjoyed. "Marvellous" usually when something better than good, used on it's own or in sentance "What a marvellous day we have had", !Gosh!" either used on it's own as an exclamation or in sentance "Gosh! that was good" or !Gosh! that was a bit hairy" (hairy being used as 'frightening', an abbreviation meaning 'hair stand on end', So, not all are "old fashioned" but still in use today :-)
In some lessons of yours you gave us advice to take somebody's speech and way to talk as our personal model for self-training. Well, I just think you'll be mine: your way of teaching is the best I found out so far. Keep on teaching, please, despite the great efforts the videos require. Cheerio!
When I came to Cambridge to start my PhD, I thought I would impress my supervisor with such outdated language (of course, I had no idea it was outdated, I just thought it was nice and posh). But he wasn’t impressed at all: he spent the next couple of years trying to make my work sound like a researcher’s from the 21st century instead of one from the Victorian age.
Just when you've had enough of those over-edited teaching videos recommended to you by UA-cam (oh, sugar!), Jade comes up. Spiffing, my darlings! I need to go and have my morning cup of tea and start my stupendous weekend.
Reminds me of that wonderful sitcom of the nineties called 'Keeping up Appearances', where working-claas lady Hiacynth Bucket (pronounced 'Bouqueeee') aspires to climb the social ladder - this effort is as desperate as it is in vain... Each episode ended in a complete desaster - so funny!
There’s nothing funny about The British Class System, it’s not as bad as the Indian Caste System, but according to the US couple that have been to Britain for You Tube Tube videos, they said there is much more of a class system in the UK compared to the US. I am from Britain, i hate posh accents, makes me want to punch a posh person!
Hi Jade I learned all these expressions in my History Classes at secondary school . I attended secondary school from 2013 until 2018 However I still use these expressions in my English even though I left school 3 years ago I still remember the vocabulary from my history classes My History teacher used to greet the class with How do you do ? and the class answered with How do you do ? And as the students were leaving the classes we said Cheerio
Where is my precious little upvote! Now you see it...now you don't..bleckkhkk! (I'm not crazy..it was there!) Somebody's plaayyhhing gaheeems! (I love it!)
Hi, splendid lesson, thank You very much. Btw I am sitting here in good old Hamburg listen to Your entertaining expressions and explainations of my beloved second and mother/father language of Yours. Some of these words and sayings I luckily know already from the Pirates Of The Caribbean and My Fair Lady. Surprisingly, there‘re a few we do have in German with the same meaning : Old chum - alter Kumpel or God forbid - Gott behüte and hear, hear ! - Hört, hört ! Well, I do enjoy Your lessons, cheers
Hi Jade I love you and I love your videos it’s really useful and I am appreciate your amazing job I love your Way to teaching you are amazing you are my angel sweetheart 🙏
you're just lovely explaining all this. I have a question: how do British people use the word "love" to address someone who's not close? how does that work?
Is it me, or is this lady just the cutest?
Upon my word! Most of those words I've learned from my English language books, or from literature, and I use them online. Never knew I could come across as a posh person. Toodle-pip, old chaps!
your a nice old chip
I use "marvelous" a lot
When I use all these expressions i come across as a posh person
Never knew that "marvelous" and "splendid" are old words. We use it now regularly
Who is "we"?
@@diegoyuiop You don't use "marvelous" and "splendid" in your vocabulary?
I have a weakness for old posh British English. It just sounds so lovely. 🥰
Snob! Come to a poor part of U.K. and say that in a bar!
read P.G.Wodhouse. love his Psmith series

I love this kind of English that people don't speak anymore! It is most charming!

The 'Downton Abbey' great example and fun to watch.
It's been a while.. Glad to see you back..
So Jade, you're so spiffing when your trying to teach us speak poshy. Luv u )
My favourite thing about your videos is how you always scoot in from the side
Love it. I wish you were my English subject teacher in school.
In my part of the world we're taught 2/3 of these expressions as normal English at school.
me too

Lol but the old language is the best

Perhaps your best video yet ! Always look forward to seeing you Jade. 🙂👍
I sounded posh just watching your lessons. Thanks Jade!

Hear hear, old chap !

Such a marvellous lesson! Quite splendid 🎉
Thank you very much for your help . Your student from Morocco 🤗

@@Lat265 You are right, no class system has ever been funny, however, satire can make fun of it.
By Jove, old bean, can I say its marvellous to see you back! without any leeway of doubt it is indeed. Good show, thanks. And... tally bally ho!
All hail my dear. Spiffing lesson. What fun. I haven't laughed that much since I read Macbeth in school.
Right, I had many laughs, as well.
Upon my word, what a splendid comedy talent!
Welcome back Jade.

A jolly good one, Jade, thank you
A funny lesson! Thanks!
At scholl weve learned to say how do you do how do you do, but when i first visited the uk it was more like ohrightmate:D lol
You should listen to the Noel Coward song “I went to a marvelous party”. - very posh, priceless.
Merry Christmas and a.......
Happy New Year !!! .......

as a posh person, I can confirm that is a great video.
Yes… Finally, they are called Posh English, and we have them in a lesson. I really needed this long time a go, Thank You Jade, Thumbs Up.
What about "old bean"?
My parents used refer their old friends when I was child like he was my school/class fellow or something like that
When I was in school we were taught to say “How do you do.” I never knew about the phrase “How are you” till I came to America.
Your lesson was marvelous darling! Toodle pip!
Happy to see you again, it's been a while
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ... I love you from Iraq
I say! Absolutely topping of you!
I´m very impressed.
Good accent... good one to learn better!! Hear hear I say it as loud as I can.
I like Toodle pip one!
thanks, you have a wonderful accent...
Wow I loved !! Stupendous performance and your smile... have no price
You could say also 'tata and farewell!' If you're leaving some place...
Don't ask from who I listened this expression
Viejotrueno
I bid you
Muchas gracias por la lección.
hello teacher. I really love your accent. Please release some more videos about topic-related vocabularies. For example, family,... Thank you
In Singapore, instead of saying WTF, we say What The Fish 😀
Hi Jade I love you and I love your videos it’s really useful and I am appreciate your amazing job I love your Way to teaching you are amazing you are my angel sweetheart 🙏
Splendid video ☺️☺️. Really we appreciate it very much !!!
Could you make video about Scottish-English ?
Thanks jade. It has been so. We renovate.
Old-school posh folk are so OTT. :)
I've seen too much Jeeves and Wooster, because chin-chin was the only phrase I didn't know.
8:53
Her: "when they can be bothered to show uo there, because there's not a lot of... "
Me: "Space."
"because there's not a lot of things they need to debate these days."
Spiffing lesson Jade 👍😃
Doing good job Jade......
you're just lovely explaining all this.
I have a question: how do British people use the word "love" to address someone who's not close? how does that work?
Glorious!!
it's weird to witness english person impersonating an english person at 2:11
I need. This is so important
Wonderful!
nice to know
Absolutely fabulous 🤗😬
Welcome back Jade
Muchas gracias profe, eres única!!!
wow thank you very much dear
I really wanna learn English not just by listening or watching videos but by talking to someone who is fluent in it but I have no one to talk to😔
The "how do you do" is like Japanese "genki desu ka" -> answer "genki desu" where ka means ?
Bugger.. what does that mean?
You don't want to know....
i actually use bugger quite a lot
Welcome Back Madam
78٪
I got 7/9
thank you Jade
« Hear, hear ! » = « Oyez, oyez ! » in old French. (from the old verb « Ouïr » = « to listen ») :-)
Welcome back.
If you talked like this no wonder this pakistani shop owner thought you where from a posh region (as you mentioned in the lesson about town names) 😂
Scarlette O'Hara said "Oh, fiddlesticks" in Gone With The Wind.
How do you do?and how are you Both I really have a class in199x hong Kong,But no one used it at the time@@Just say how are you?
Nice
Marvellous
The English language sure has changed!
I still speak like this lol
This is the accent of the better people.
Even though, some of them were, pirates!
This video is the dialogue of Nigel Bruce's Dr. Watson opposite Basil Rathbone's Sherlock Holmes.
Used to use "bugger" a lot without knowing what it actually meant, lol.
My mum never swore she used to say. For Foxes glacier mints.😆
Lol. Remember when I started to learn English we actually greet each other with How Do You Do on a daily basis.
Yes, because English people are fake.
