Otherwise you have to carry the can for all what you said.Good luck to me😉im Aiza Emilie from HK. ..Cheers~
Years ago I bought a mug with lots of pictures of Mr Bean with the words “Full of Beans”. Until today I believed it was a joke I didn’t understand. Thanks Tom for your videos. They help us a lot to learn English better.
What a great lesson, Tom! Here's my example: Why aye! I did realize he was slagging me off! Not surprising coming from such a plonker! Thank you Tom and greetings from Argentina.
I discover this channel with the Louis Tomlinson accent's video (sorry if I rabbit about him all day) but I stay for your videos and personality, you're such a full of beans mate!
This afternoon I was all over the place: I made a half-arsed attempt at the housework which I hadn't done for yonks, but it all went tits up. I got really mardy, gave it up and went to bed, but when I was lying there in the buff I saw your video - and now I'm full of beans! Thanks for another great lesson Tom! It was super useful 👍 I love it when you teach modern English - I learned a lot from your videos.
Winner! Well done Drunk Cherry, I really liked the way you organically used the new slang phrases in a very natural way while also telling a story. Send me an email and I'll arrange a book to be sent to you. Tom@eatsleepdreamenglish.com
Thanks a ton for this video! I am from India. I’m a student from class 10 and I am trying to learn the British English! Your videos have helped greatly. By the way, your British Accent is so elegant! I want to speak with the same accent! Cheers!
I was at a jobs fair this week and, talking to one of the delegates, I asked if he had any 'bumf' - mostly leaflets containing information that is sometimes useful (such as product information), but more often than not is useless or tedious (such as the flyers that suddenly appear through your letterbox). I don't know if 'bumf' is used predominantly in the North of England, as the guy with whom I was speaking was a Southerner and had to ask what it meant.
I am asking for it, but in the U.S. it is expensive! I hope I can get it. I am going to watch this video over and over until I only talk in British slang. I love it!
My sentence : At school. "John, could you shut the window please?" "Why aye Man" "What do you mean saying WHY I? Because teacher asks you doing that, you plonker "
-Although it is such a well-known restaurant, there aren't many guests tonight so I'm afraid it's impossible to do a runner mate. -Do you think so? Hold my beer.
My small niece are studying English in her school and yesterday she asked about translation "pedestrians cross" so I had to looking for this word but today I have discovered is also zebra crossing in London!! This word is better for us because is very similar in Spain!! We will not forget it next time!! 😉

That tory restaurant was full of toff bell-ends! They'll be crying saltwater tears from the shin-kicking I savaged them with! We laughed 'til we wept after we pegged it out the gaff and not a pence spent so we were quids-in at the end of the affair anyways. Proper horror-show! It was mint!

Great video!!!!. Thank you very much. I' ll put some of these expressions into use next time i have guests from the UK ( i am a tour guide by the way😊). See you on your video
-A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman. The bus driver had to go on a long bustrip that would last a week. Before he left, he gave the woman seven apples. Why? -??? -It's a piece of cake. Use your loaf, Mate! (The solution: An apple a day keeps the doctor away! 😀)
Hi Tom. May I suggest an example for an X slang word? You didn't say "no", so it goes. XIXI. You pronounce sheeshee and it means pee. Like, when you ask your son before leaving the house before a trip. "Do you need a sheeshee before leaving?" By the way, this is Portuguese, from Portugal.
I'm sometimes so all over the shop feeling like a right plonker, trying to remember what to do so I have to use my loaf to get stuff in order. And if I manage to do that, it makes me full of beans because things are finally looking up.
I had a kerfuffle with my mum on my birthday about the mardy mate of her. He wanted to do the runner that time. He thought I was a bell-ends. I'd fancy a copy of your book as well.
Winner! I really liked this sentence because it feels like something I might genuinely say. Well done! Send me an email and we'll arrange the book for you. Tom@eatsleepdreamenglish.com
@@EatSleepDreamEnglish Okay. If my sentence didn't win, please can you just say your professional point of view about my sentence as a native English teacher? Thank you!
A guy I used to work with is such a bell-end, I've always wondered what is the meaning of this word because he uses it a lot, thank you for explaining it to us :)
Mate, United was all over the shop against us when we played against them. Also Kane and Sonny where full of beans that day. No wonder we won 6-1. But against Antwerp our players looked a bit half-arsed. But I think we are having a great season so far. We have not been on top of the table for yonks!
I told my cousins I was going to participate to win Tom's book and there was a huge kerfuffle over who I was going to lend it first if I won it. I've had many amazing english teachers but if someone asked me if Tom has been the best of them I would say: why aye man! without a second thought. Really interesting video as always, thanks for sharing 👍🥳👏
Hey Tom, any chance you could make & sell a t-shirt version of your UK slang map? I think that'd be great, especially on a good quality shirt, like maybe a ringer T in a natural with dark ribbing, etc.
I remember back in the day when I first started watching Top Gear, I only understood about half of what they were saying. lol, It's crazy how different two versions of English can be.
You have such a great content, I hope you'll get more eatsleepdreamers I hope we won't have to wait your video in the buff for yonks, if you know what I mean.

Some of these have very different meanings in America! "Neck" means kissing and cuddling, while "full of beans" can mean crazy. I'd love to know the etymology behind all of these.
I have been wanting to travel to Italy for the past 25 years and decided for my 50th birthday this year, I would go for a week but due to the virus it all went tits up

Here in Malta, zebra crossing is a standard way of referring to pedestrian crossings. I'm surprised to hear it's actually a slang term.
We also call them zebra crossings in Spain

It's really interesting to see that some of these have made it into Canadian English, at least in British Columbia and Alberta.

There was a bit of a kerfuffle when I ran into the pub in the buff to order a pint of lager.
Tom! Should it be "as" instead of "when"? (#afterthought...)

Instead of 'use your loaf', can we also say 'use your noddle' ? Does it have a similar meaning?
My friend is such a bell-end : I told him to do a runner and he did!
Use your loaf,mate!
4:19 Is it from "belly-up", as in "animals, esp. fish that died when their corpses show their bellies as they float back to the surface"?
It was useful tahnk you so much❤❤😍😍
I hope it will be available in Iran as soon as possible🙂
I can't wait to have it❤
v for vex, spoken a lot in london slang,
Some of these have very different meanings in America! "Neck" means kissing and cuddling, while "full of beans" can mean crazy. I'd love to know the etymology behind all of these.
-He's changed..full of beans, lost weight..bought a house...
-Yeah, shocking diet: does a runner from restaurants, saving money on both gym and foods.

I'll love a video about Adele, never ever I get it that she say, she speak so fast :3
I'm pretty sure that by the time I get the book the slang will have changed a hundred times ))
Lush is a “Drunk” in American English. “Neck” in American English is slang for kissing. “Loaded” also means wealthy in American English.
Hey Tom. How are you ? Can I get your book on Amazon not as kindle?
There is a plonker living in my ends who does runners from the nearby hotels.
In America I'm familiar with the phase " In The BUFF ".
I wish the paperback was available in the US, but it's showing up as being around $70 rather than the $20 or so it would be in the UK :( This is a great video, thanks Tom! I wonder how Burton's feels about the slang definition of "jammy" ;)
For ‘V’ how about ‘veg out’?
“What you doing this evening?”
“Mate, I’m just gonna stay home and veg out.”
I’m pretty sure I’ve not heard that here in the US, so I guess it’s unique to us in the UK.
