slang

Use iPaddy to understand the Irish.

Feck it! There's now an app for Irish slang

Ireland is full of cute hoors, gougers and gurriers. With the help of "iPaddy", an Irish slang guide for the iPhone and iPod, you can now find out what those words mean. The slappers and sleeveens will be dying for a gawk, once you have it.

I hella love Oakland

In Jan Stuermann's photo, an actress poses on the set of an independent film being made in Oakland, California, with "I hella love Oakland" tattooed on her body. What does it mean?

I fell in love with a pile of pants

"The government showed how not to use a new phrase"

A car with a saucy number plate overtook us.

Why was this word on the car's number plate?

"We tell you when to use or avoid taboo language"

I say acorn, you say eggcorn

Expressions change when we don't know what they mean.

"They're so _______, they can't afford new shoes for their kids!"

Povo, houso or dero?

The Strine language: "cozzies"
