Being British: Joel & Lia could you do a video or a series of videos on british drinking culture plus do’s don’ts and laws surrounding when you can drink alcoholic beverages/drinks - thanks again for a great video ! - From West Sussex, England UK
Douche - Origin is Deutsch meaning shower but that has nothing to do with the American meaning :-)
the worst part is that i can relate to getting called all of these (the kids at the park i now rarely go to are bullies)
Being British: Joel & Lia we say someone would have to have 8 bags to ?6(:/ them.
I don't get it. it was your choice to post videos and you should be thankful that viewers are watching you. Why buy you a coffee (or, indeed, a bottle of prosecco)? Kind of tacky, don't you think? Robert.
When you're British, no curse word offends you 😂😂
Because it doesnt offend us any more, we just put the word absolute infront of any word
Soo true 😂
Exactly.
Personally I don't get offended my anything other than people getting offended by swearing. 😂
Literally 😂
BUTTERS is actually old school American slang. short for butterface.. Meaning everything looks good BUT·HER·FACE
That's it! It's terrible and I want to say that somebody like Howard Stern used to use it a lot. Or some shock jock.
Exactly right and to take the slang even further, a woman might be called a “butta” girl. She has a great bod, butta face ...( insert negative look and body language here).
You're so right! I was about to say that we say "butterface!" and it's not very kind.
On the bus to his first day of kindergarten, my son was called "butter" by another kid to which he responded, "Butter?! You're toast!"
Yeah! I was gonna say we in America use or used to use “butter face”
Me, a British person, watching this video for literally no reason lol
Me too, I'm doing it to remind myself of funny insults.
Same
😂😂
Killing the time until a live video comes along.
We don't have slang we just have
*BANTER*
Tell me how on fucking earth did they miss clapped
That's right you bloody pillok
True
Exactly!
In Australia instead of using the term Butters, we'd call someone a prawn... As when eating a prawn you keep the body, but throw away the head.
Oh! I see!
😂😂😂
Exactly the same in Spain when using that term in Spanish (te comes el cuerpo de la gamba y tiras la cabeza) quite offensive to be honest. Funny though
In the Philippines, they have a similar phrase. I'm a Brit of Filipino descent and I've heard this one from my family. If someone is beautiful both in the face and the body, they're called a squid because with a squid, you can eat literally everything.
thats brilliant
I like how you intensify nouns by adding “right”, as in “She’s a right slapper”. That’s never done in the US. Here it’s right out.
She's a right bloody slapper. That's how you use 'bloody'. Bloody hell it's ½ past 2 I should get to sleep!
A proper slapper bruhv 😂
Doughnut and muppet are now used worldwide thanks to Gordon Ramsay.
LOL...there are a few other words used worldwide thank to Gordon Ramsay.
Fairview Idiot sandwich and donkey instantly come to mind.
my fave muppets kermit fozzy and gonzo.wrong context? ooh my bad. lol
omg idiot sandwich just that clip...you have no idea how many times I replayed that and just laughed my ass off.
My bro 💘 love to watch Gordon Ramsay so he says Muppet all the time
Philippines' version of "Butters" is the Filipino word for shrimp/prawn. It's because people usually throw the shrimp's head away.
Nilasco Caguimbal 😂😂
Nilasco Caguimbal exactly the same in Brazil hahah
Nice!!
S.l.u.t sweet little unforgettable thing
Heidi 19x no definitely not what we use that word for in Liverpool
Good song
W.a.n.k.e.r
Will and Nancy keep ejaculating rapidly
Aka weebs
Slag Instead
I’m british I just wanted to see what you guys don’t understand😂
Lyra Moore Same 😂
There's not much that we con't figure out :)
I've heard all of these, of course I read all the time, and watch British t.v. shows. 😂
Lyra Moore same
Similar 🧐
As an American I don't necessarily know all of these terms out of context, but it's easy for me to get the gist when used in context, with the right tone of voice, others' reactions, etc. I've definitely heard some of the not so heavy words or phrases used in British shows or interviews that I watch often.
Again, I appreciate the lighthearted and humorous approach to teaching British culture. I hope you don't get too hungover by Prosecco. Cheers guys
Aw thanks Ben! Yeah tone of voice and context helps a lot! So glad you enjoy our style! haha, two glasses and we had to stop!
I'd heard a lot of the words you featured because I like British TV and have had to figure out their meanings.(LOVE that Brits can cuss on TV! LOL)
An American insult that I'd be interested to see if you know is "Bless your heart." (Sounds perfectly innocent and complimentary, doesn't it?)
Rick Mitchell what does bless your heart mean
Ahhh used in a sarcastic tone I guess??
Exactly!
It's a Southerner's way of telling you your an idiot.
Exactly, or Aren't you precious. Can be used when someone trying so hard to do something but failing miserably.
Here in the US we do say twat and it has the same meaning
Yes, same meaning, but perhaps not the same severity. If someone says twat, it's just funny. Not shocking or super vulgar. Not like if you called someone a cunt. Which I think is kind of the opposite in the UK. They say cunt all the time.
Gissell Dow yeah, cunt is a very common word here and I think it’s a lot more offensive in the US than in the UK, because in the UK we can also use it as an informal word of endearment, which must be really weird to Americans 😂
Gissell Dow yup “cunt” is one of the worst insults, especially to a girl
Both have been used as insults at least since the late 70’s in the US. I’ve never called a woman that or even referred to parts as that. Even if someone is rude to you, you don’t need to be rude back.
Yes, my husband says twat and I cringe whenever he says it. (I just cringed typing it)
I’ve heard “twat” here in America for years! And the BEST (and therefore, WORST!) insult I ever heard was, “She’s a life support system for a twat!” It totally fit the person being described!
In US twit is short for nitwit.
I'll add their usage on twit to the things that make me think they never watched Monty Python (look up, "upper class twit of the year").
it's twat, not twit lol
@@silverbullet2008bb kids tend to grow up with twit as it's less offensive
My rule when drinking is to always say I’ve had only one glass. When an eyebrow is raised, I explain, “Well.. I’ve refilled it four times, but it is just the one glass!” ;^} I know, I know, I’m a total doofus. But it beats being a complete nimrod. -Phill, Las Vegas
Considering the fact this channel now has 55,000 + subs and only 20,000 + not very long ago is indicative of the fact you guys ROCK! Congrats and keep up the edutainment!! 😀
Once the teacher asked,”What rhymes with finger?” And my friend said “minger!” 😂
BAHAH
I'm actually familiar with most of these insults, since I watch the BBC. Are you familiar with this one, (not meaning to insult you), "You don't know shit from shinola!"
We have that one in the states.
Ahhhhhh, isn't it good to listen to them! I'm from England myself and I miss hearing those words because I'm in the states now.
People use that "T**T over here in the US as well and I can't
can't stand it. Equally offensive (if not more so) is the word
"C**T". I REALLY hate that one! We do watch a lot of British movies
and television programs so we do know words like "slag" "bird" "chat" him up,
a bit of "crumpet"etc. LOL
Hey, I'm from Brazil and I love your videos. You've helped me so much with my british english
Laura Stella Another Brazilian who loves British English 👌
彰小川 yesss, im fascinated by the variety of accents!!
Aw thank you!
Being British: Joel & Lia you're welcome... I look forward going to England and practicing my accent.
Me too❤
My Scottish friend always call me prick lol. According to him, those insults actually show friendliness and when British people start calling you pal or friend, that’s how you know you are actually in trouble hehe
Yuya Moore that’s true most of the time 😂😂
Yuya Moore true sometimes
Yuya Moore in the U.S. a Pal is a "(P)ersonal (A)ss (L)icker!"
Oh, I think you need to very careful using 'prick' (and I would not be happy if a 'friend' called me one). In the right company, you might refer to someone 'as a right (or real) prick', but watch out if you said that to a person's face.

Since when?
Low key Southern US insult: “Bless your/his/her heart.”
Not an insult.
cathymc * r/woooosh
I am Southern. Have been all my life. When I hear of a person having a bad time I say, " Bless his/her heart." When I hear that my little grandson had a bad time getting his treatment for leukemia, I say, "Bless his heart." Never heard it being said as an insult. It is more of saying, "I feel your pain."
Cathy McCollough it’s another way of saying someone is not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Never heard that used as an insult. It was used more out of pity or concern for someone, I fet ike. I grew up in the South.
I love this!
I'd not heard the word "twat" until I was around 25 or so. My british dad would use "twit" a lot while I was growing up.
Never heard minger and some of the others you shared! Fascinating. I love this. :D
Please do a video where you force Lia to say all of those naughty words out loud!
right? lol
Amazingly useful guys! Always a class topic and difficult to approach. Great job! Thanks! Love and cheers! 👍💗😘🇬🇧
Thanks Tek!
Where do y’all film to have creepers 👀in the window 😂
Omg love you guys!!! You both are hilarious, I’m an American viewer, never heard of any of those insults.
I heard Gordon Ramsey call
Someone a “doughnut” and I loved it! He actually says some funny shit!
I’m so using “doughnut!” 🍩 😆
Oh I’m
From
California, btw
I had heard of "tosser" before, from "Harry Potter" , when Harry was actually referring to himself as a "bit of a tosser". I had assumed it meant ~ someone you could toss out or disregard. Not a keeper. As always, loved the video. Your moods seemed a bit subdued today. Hope everything is ok. Hugs, xo
Ah yeah!! He does say that doesn't he! We're fine - must just have been an off-day! Thanks for asking though Donna ❤️
I thought that, too. It makes more sense to me than the actual meaning.
It's the British weather!
i like your meaning of the word better and it make sense
Er yeah. Good guess given the context but it definitely doesn't mean that. Tosser is pretty similar to twat.
We sometimes use prawn/shrimp instead of butters. Makes sense since you just eat the body and leave the head behind 😂
Butters is a character from south park.
Drink Your Nail Polish loo loo loo I got some apples loo loo loo you got some to
In harry potter he called himself a tosser
That's where I first heard that one.
True
At the beginning of the Half-Blood prince, I think.
It means wanker
When you see someone who looks sexy across the room, but NOT up close, my friends and I call them "Monets". (See Impressionist paintings) LOL
I'm going to adopt this into my vocabulary, nice!
Yes, the first time I heard it was in the early 80s "She's a definite Monet. Beautiful from afar, but up close, you realize she's just a complete mess!" It's horrible, and not used often today.
I'm Italian american and we use the word twat, but we pronounce it differently. Twaht
Drink Your Nail Polish yeah, us Brits know it, but it has nowhere near the impact as twat with a short 'a'.
Twat is more used in Britain than America lol
Drink Your Nail Polish you got to pronounce the tw in twat its sounds better
Yep.
Ashley Conner when did the word twat turn to T-whot in the U.S??
Lovely mix: prosecco, such kind of phrases, and you couple.
You just make me feel realy drunk, a bit!
Bloody magic!:)
Oh.Sorry for mistakes. I was a bit tipsy.
VA MO you made them mistakes on purpose.
I regularly use the term wanker to describe people. I’m American.
Yeah, but when you say it, you know that's a quintessential British term, right? Maybe you even try to say it with a British accent? I think it in a British accent.
Galaxis there is NO such thing as a “British” accent. Britain is all of England and a few others. How can I have a London accent and a Bournemouth accent? There are actually more than one English accent.
Plonker anyone
skully 247 we use the terms plopper, steamer or floater...
LOL Never mind
Sledge watch your mouth >:(
A load of plonkers around here - dumbasses basically.
A plonker is idiot
I’ve never heard “slapper” in America to mean “slut”. We do have a similar term “flapper”, which specifically to women in the 1920s-1930s who dressed in a certain fashion style. They were usually prostitutes, but not always. Sometimes they were just sluts, which was uncommon in those days, or not promiscuous at all, but just wore that fashion style. The term comes from the idea that “their loose morals flap in the wind”.
I do know slag means slut in Britain. They have the comic strip Fat Slags. I’ve also heard “to slag [someone] off” means to talk unflatteringly about someone else in public or to others when they’re not around. We would say “talk shit (about)” in General American English and “throw shade (at)” in African American Vernacular English.
I recently learned about the word “tosser” in British and Australian English and think it’s hilarious! It’s just like “wanker” (one who masturbates).
“Tosser” sounds less offensive and more playful to me as an American than “wanker”. Maybe that’s because “toss” can mean “to throw”, especially to throw lightly.
In American English, the equivalent would be “jerk off” which as a verb means to masturbate (for males only) and as a noun is an insult meaning “asshole” or less commonly “idiot”.
lol love these. my uncle ben is from england and he and i just busted up laughing.
We (boston area) say "butter face" when everything but her face looks good. So pretty much the same. Thot is being used alot
TiffanyMarie yeah thot is common and in Florida we hear butterface a lot
Massachusetts in the house. We say butterface, and fugly, made it into my divorce papers. F***ing ugly.
Biff Tannen in the 80's "Back To The Future" series called everybody a "butt head". & I often heard "butt face" a lot back then.
In Germany basically all animal names can be used as swear words which is insulting to the animals xD
Thanks for your help with my British clients...I now use my inside voice...and have stopped saying “oh my God”...small steps on a long journey
In the American south we say “bless your heart”. Its the nicest insult I’ve ever heard.
I love your videos, quite entertaining and informative! You make such a cute, fun couple. Thanks for all the info! 😺
Thanks Jeannie!
"Half bubble off plumb."
M Cotherman one egg short of a carton...
Missing a few dots on his dominions
Ad few sandwiches short of a picnic. A few bricks short of a load.
3 fries short of a Happy Meal. I think my brother invented "not all his dogs are barking".
M Cotherman thats mostly used by. construction workers in America. Non construction workers usually give a blank stair when they hear it
Americans often say "butter face" and it means the same as "butters". It's rooted in the phrase "but her face" as in "she's hot everywhere but her face". I'm sure it's all related.
Thanks for the video. I thought a tosser was a drunk tossing back shots. Hilarious!
Didn't know this vid was that old & had so many responses, that was a long list & don't have the time to read them but you two are great! 😂❤️
You guys should do a video on different accents across the US, I grew up in New England and our accent (the Boston accent) is a lot different than most of the country, and we're known for not using the Rs at the end of words similar to how Brits sound.
Alec Johnston this is a great idea. Hope they do it. We’ve got a South Carolina southern drawl.
Dean Miller And the Ozark twang. Tire=tar, fire=far, window=winda, ring=rang, aluminium foil=aloomnum foal, mirror=meer, preparing to=fixing to, the list goes on!😁
Beantown!
And Bostonians also add the R to words ending I A.
Arthur Gerich Cuban Missile Crisis, JFK always said "Cuber." Interesting that a Boston accent does this but drops the r from so many other words.
Had no idea twat was a Brit thing, i've used it for most of my life... I guess i picked it up from a British actor at some point and just didn't make the connection.
I guess that explains why i get strange looks/laughter when i say it
Americans pronounce it wrong though, they say twot when it's supposed to be said how it's spilt
T W A T
Matt In Full Vision Can’t say I’ve ever pronounced Twat as “Twot”. That’s just weird dude, there’s no o in there.
Yall should do like a clothing type of video like what is British fashion compared to american fashion or what you like or dont like about
That's a good idea!
My cousin’s British and I sent this video to her. She was laughing her head off 😂
Twat has the same meaning here, w/r/t female parts, but other words are more likely to be used. Also in the U.S. such things can vary by region.
Do Brits use the term THOT?
Yeah, but it's not that rude for us 😂
I've been asking for months. WTF does THOT mean
Ewwwitsher oh itvwas expecting way worse than that lol anyway thanks
kristal Taylor It's like another word for "ho". But what pisses me off about it is ppl generally use it for women only, but it's for men or women.
kristal Taylor Yw
Because no one here in the States says "dickhead" :P (That was sarcasm, if it wasn't clear.)
Obviously we both use "slut", too. I knew "slag" just because I watch way too much British television. I did not know about "slapper", though, so thanks for that one!
Is the term bugger offensive? A few of us in my office used it like “oh darn!” We have offices in the UK and we’re told we should find another word because it may be offensive to Brits.
I'm British & I say the word "bugger" quite a lot if / when things go wrong
[..but I never say "bugger me !" because the word "bugger" means to have anal sex..! Buggery used to be an offence & homosexuals were imprisoned for indulging in the offence of "buggery" .. !!]
Oh wow! Thanks for proving background on the term.
I work in construction and when we put shingles back on the roof, one person will toss a shingle to another person who then nails the shingle. We sometimes refer to the first person as the tosser. :)
We also use minging for gross or things that smell rotten
One swear word that seems to be commonly used in the UK is “c- - t”. It’s SO BAD here in America, that I can’t even get myself to type it. It’s the WORST! It’s just not used that much. Perhaps it’s used in some regions more than others, but we just don’t hear it. Maybe in a low socio-economic area, but not much. A few weeks ago, when a foul-mouthed comedienne got up on her cable show and was REALLY angry at President Trump, she went after his daughter, Ivanka. She said something like, “Get your Dad to do ‘such & such’, you FECKLESS C - - T!” Well, the nation went crazy! I mean, firstly, she went after his daughter and not him. Secondly, to have used that word is scraping the very bottom of the barrel filth here.
Just type, See you next Tuesday. It doesn't sound so bad then.
Come to Australia and you will hear the word every second.
Picasso... looks nice from a distance, but up-close its just a big mess.
bck318 I think it’s a Monet. Watch the movie Clueless, that’s where it came from 😁
Omg picasso?
I've heard it as "Monet" instead of Picasso.
That's pretty good, not heard it before and I like it. From a Brit.
bck318 good from far but far from good.
This American has heard of all of these.
Such fun!
Minger and Minghag came to the U.S. in the early 2000's. A skateboarder Bam Margera had an English skateboarding friend Geoff Rowley who used the word frequently. Bam and his group of friends had a wildly popular series of videos which eventually expanded and gelled into several/other massive TV shows, movies, videos games etc (including the movie Minghags), and these words gradually became part of their lexicon. So anyone that is either a fan of their work, a part of the skateboarding scene, and/or from the general Atlantic Metro coast area (the greater Philadelphia area specifically) will be familiar with or use these words.
We use the word twat, it's not an unheard of insult, although anyone that uses the word twat has an extensive verbal armory. Same as twit, although in America it's short for nitwit and used in the context of calling someone dumb. I've heard tosser used, but Americans will either only use the hand gesture (to reference masturbation, not the English origin of tossing a pot), or invariably use both the hand gesture and the phrase together. Anyone that uses tosser as a straight up insult is an Anglophile like myself. Wanker would be understood by anyone , but I've never heard anyone use it. And as for butters, that is correct, but here we'd say Butterface (but-her-face though) as in "she's a butterface".
In America we call prostitutes TRICKS
🎶wheels on fire, rolling down the rooooaaaad!🎶
Omg, now I need to watch an episode...
I suspect that ‘butters’ comes from ‘butterface’ as in, she’s ok but her face. Also BOBFOC - as in body of baywatch, face of crimewatch 😂 both are funny
Ahhhhh that's where it comes from!
I was called a Muppet by my dad when I was small
Muppet is soft idiot
Love your vlog! You have a fun time and it makes others happy! 😀
As a NYC boy, I became obsessed with "Hollyoaks" when The McQueen's came to town.... watched it every day on UA-cam. I've heard most of the words before.... poof, bird, hen, slapper, wanker, etc. Loved every minute.
Actually, we say Butterface instead of butters. Because she has a great body Butterface is scary. But her face Butterface. Not very good I think.
intense screaming or 2 he/she is a 2 ply.
I actually never heard the term butterface until now...
It means ugly (but ugly)
Drinking alcohol and swearing. Like real adults 😂
hahaha
It’s universal. 😂
Hana M i swear while sober at 35 lol
Loved this video; I've heard most of these British insults and they're funny. Some fairly common American insults would include "tool" - generally used towards guys > "He's such a tool." Similarly, one might use "douchebag" or "douche" for short > generally for males but could be for anyone. "Ratchet" is another insult - generally used towards females or things in general that are considered trashy/ghetto > "She/that's so ratchet!" In the South, particularly, you may hear any age woman say "Bless your heart!" and that's equivalent to calling someone "daft" without them necessarily catching on to your opinion about them.
"Cunt" and "twat" are inverted in America and England. In America, calling someone a cunt will get your nose broken and calling someone a twat will be much less offensive (and vice versa for England).
Joel is so cute I could sit and look at his face all day! Sorry Lia, you're pretty too :) But Those eyes! That smile... Definitely a good tourist attraction LOL - Love your channel, I'm kinda a silly American obsessed with the UK.
Don't come over, unless you want your lungs to be corrupted from the amount of pollution in London.
Especially for secondary school kids like me who have to get the bus every day.
Doughnut over here is a sweet pastry to eat for breakfast!
A. T. American food is just seeing how much food you can cram on a plate at least English food is presentable
Sharon La Tour. Do you seriously believe they don’t have doughnuts in Britain?
We know what a doughnut is, lol.
You eat donuts for breakfast!?
yeah, we do still doughnuts, but doughnut can also mean something else in Britain... not like you would care...
I live in Florida and we say twat a lot over here. :-)
handicapitation Twot or TwAt? And in what context? :)
Brissles It means the same, but it's considered more mannerly the using vagina. Ex: That heifer is about to drop a calf, because her twat is huge. It doesn't refer to idiot. The nasty American word is Cunt. Which means the same thing, but it's derogatory.
The only American ive heard say twat is jimmy from gta 5 lol
its so weird seeing so many of our swear words just laid out in front of me 😂
I love being "bilingual" (born in the States and have always been a US citizen, but grew up and was raised and schooled over there--sister still lives there. England is where our dear old mum--who died in 2013--was from and where she had moved back with us kids after splitting from our dad, whom she had met and married over there when he was a US airman. He died in 2011, in NY state, where I now live...we all loved both parents equally. With fond memories and a few return visits; I consider England as a sort of second home. So many colorful expressions--polite and otherwise--on both sides of the pond.)
Is butters like butterface (literally short for 'but her face')? Also, 'used to describe prostitutes but now used for women in general' sounds like the history of misogyny in language condensed into a sentence.
Ahhhhh that's where it comes from!
Being British: Joel & Lia from where it comes.
Being British: Joel & Lia never end a sentence with a preposition. 😉
Misty Devillier this isn’t Latin. That’s not how English works.
I love Lia
MY BRITS WERE U AT?!!
Kenzy Fairman Invaded by an American.
Zero Hour lol 😂
I’m here
Checking in, Chief.
I read this with an American accent
we also use things like "dumb as a post", "sweet boy/girl", or "he's so sweet" to describe someone a little dumb but means well
For butters with good bod with face not so much, I've heard double-bagger, meaning you'd consider them only with two (paper) bags over their head. Do they use 'fugly' in England?
5 americans unliked this video 😂
i always thought slapper came from the 1920s and was another name for the flapper girls
I didn't know any of the words! They sound rude :(
They are!
That would be because they are lol.
Being British: Joel & Lia I'd be offended if something said those words to me! Thank you for teaching me British English as always❤
ripplesnake haha I know the word slut so I can imagine.
Risako British culture is pretty much insulting your friends
Wow, now I understand a whole lot more words in movies that I just went over my head before.
Lol u guys whispering the words just cracks me up😂
We say “see you next Tuesday” instead of twat...
I learned most of my insults from my favorite British and American ppl.lol
ChelseaYouGot :This is the first insult I've read that I had never heard before.
C U Next Tuesday.
Has a nice ring to it, yes?
Kathy Somers To be fair, it's not instead of twat, is it?!
Evil Twin actually, it means the same thing as they claim twat means.
Did none of you ever watch Sex and The City?
Bullocks!!!
haha bollocks? Yes that's a good one!
kaka5656kaka It's Bollocks!
I know bullocks, I'm a Sex Pistols fan...
kaka5656kaka spelled bollocks
Hahaha....the term tosser goes along well with "tossed salad" or "tossing a salad" meaning had/having sex here in the US.
kiretoce woah I’m American and everyone I know knows that “Toss the salad” means eating ass (sorry it’s very vulgar)
Yeah, sorry, but Luis has it right.
Yep, "tossing someone's salad" = eating ass
In FL we also use it to mean eating ass 😂😂😂
i always thought it to be vagina....
You two are funny and charming. I love your videos. I was in the UK (London) in the 1970s as a teenager. Everyone was very warm and polite. Really enjoyed my visit. Someone called me a Yank. Not sure if that was good or bad. :-)
I love how empathetic you guys are for your parents. You're always like, "Sorry guys" My mom hates cursing and when I was really young I'd have a sailor's tongue when I was angry and I regret it now.
"Cursing" itself is very American. I think everyone else says "swearing". "Cursing" outside of the US has connotations of devilry or witchery like when someone places a curse on you or your family.

"You bloody Muppet."
My favorite "tosser" joke is the American who approaches his British friends with a Frisbee, motions with his hand as though he were about to throw it, and says, "want to go toss a few?"
