I think something worse than 'americanisms' is this horrible habit of the 'lift' at the end of a sentence so it always sounds like a question. People who do this are under the illusion it makes them look intelligent.

Another bugbear is people who have to keep using the word Basically, when it adds nothing to the sentence.

Also people who start a sentence with the word 'so'

And finally, the scouse accent. Ban it

 

[Solarpanelcleanington]

Yep, starting or ending with 'so'.

Aaaaasaaghhhhhh wwwhyyyy???

 

[Green Pro Clean Ltd]

So basically (in fine scouse accent) ^^ /emoticons/tongue.png

@Taxlossloz is saying he had a post called 'seriously' i think that was right? Tax??

The title was changed (by me) also forgive me for my two decades living in the US but I have some of their bad speech habits that 8 years on I am still struggling to lose.

Reason it was changed is we are trying to get you all to use helpful titles to aid and assist other users.

'Wot bout dis' (and yes I have seen worse)

Should be 'What do you think of SLX25?'

You see the point, ya nay daff kid!

However when I chamged the title of @Taxlossloz thread I had a brain fart and could not thinknof a subitable descriptive title for the thread so I guess in retrospect 'my bad dude'

Some will notice post titles change but that is only an effort to make them accurate about content to help others as well as the search feature return good search results.

Please just pay a little more care to titles and they wont need adjustment in future.

Many thanks.

As for speechisms 'yo, @Taxlossloz, we cool bruv?' /emoticons/tongue.png

[Tuffers]

Ahh, I get it now /emoticons/smile.png. I hate it when you hear school kids add 'like' in every sentence. "I was walking to school and it was 'like' really cold....... I hate the word 'like'

 

[Tuffers]

And don't give me a 'like' for the above post

 

[Taxlossloz]

Shut thee marf @Green Pro Clean Ltd

A dunt no wot Thas on abart

 

[Dave B]

I hate "like" also but worse than that is when people finish every sentence with "yeah"

Why can't people talk proper like what i does?

Sweet as a nut me old fruit bun

 

[steve garwood]

After every sentence my mate big nose dal always says "you know what I mean". I mentioned this to him recently in the pub, and told him I find it annoying and can he stop it. He told me to f--k off

The actual way to fix that @steve garwood is to say 'i know what you mean' every time he does it.

Sounds childish but it works.

I used to sound like Leo from Leathal Weapon, right? I would say right at the end of each sentance right? Bloody annoying right?

Till one day I was talking to a chap who just said 'right' every time I did it. I became aware he was taking the mick made me self concious in seconds and subliminally reprogrammed me to talk like a normal person again.

I have used the same system a couple of times with people and youd be amazed how fast they change.

 

[steve garwood]

Like it. I'm seeing him Saturday night for the England game, I might try it, you know what I mean

 

[Damo]

Haha! This could be interesting today.

 

[Dave B]

Basically @Damo i am outside your house now know what i mean right

 

[Damo]

Running all the way. That's a lie. Be about 5 mins lol
