Hi all,
Pinoys understand american english as the norm, so I was wondering if anyone can help translate some english words that I have come across but have not idea what it means. Here are some example:
scouser
plonker
Apologies if this has been discussed in the past, I've only back read back to August.

a plonker i don't think i can say what it describes as this is a family website. Lets just say blokes have one and ladies don't.
But normally used as an insult, meaning someones a bit of an idiot.
Scouser - people from Liverpool
Plonker - an offensive term that deliberately insults somebody's intelligence or common sense
Thanks Encarta
oh btw in addition
Blimey- used to express amazement or shock
Manc - A person from a place that makes Smokey Mountain look posh
Keith - Administrator
How about bloody knackered?
and knackers?...LOLZ
There is always death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.
the only smokey mountain we can see from Manchester is the smoke rising from lillypud land, getting near bonfire night, lillypud will be burning againManc - A person from a place that makes Smokey Mountain look posh

yep, these are the correct renderings
and
as in erve's post
"bloody knackered" = Very Tired
"knackers" = Te$ticle$
So, the phrase that pays is "blimey that plonker scouser looks bloody knackered"Can I have my 10 pounds please.
plonker is more of a southern insult i think, as used in fools and horses, not many Mancs ever used it. we just call people scousers instead
blimey I'm bloody knackered!!!
Queen's english is so confusing, innit
haha
yo're also using pakistani-britishisms also i see? "innit">!
lol
As we are talking about English English, here's a poser for you all.
When my beloved Oldham Athletic lose a match (On an all too frequent basis this season) - I say something like:
'Well, goodness me, what jolly awful luck the chaps are having at the moment.'
Actually, I don't QUITE say it in those words.
Who can get nearer to the true expression I expound?

"Well we played well, had the ball most of the match, and had a number of chances to score. Losing is not important, as long as we have a good game! Even though we are bottom of the league, we expect to be top by Christmas if we continue to play like this"
..........Oh sorry Alan......what you say...not the manager
Keith - Administrator
Lololol - Nice one Keith."Well we played well, had the ball most of the match, and had a number of chances to score. Losing is not important, as long as we have a good game! Even though we are bottom of the league, we expect to be top by Christmas if we continue to play like this"

*Bloody knackered > Bloohming knackered. Heavens above! How smashing! (Jolly Well Spoken) > Bloody Cream Crackered (Cockney Rhyming Slang) > Blewdy Clocked (Scouse).
