Here are some funny British sayings/things I've noticed, especially for you Ma.
1) Yield signs say "Give Way" instead of "Yield"
2) Things that are particularly delicious are called "scrummy." As in, "I had a scrummy cookie for dessert!"
3) On every package of cigarettes it is printed in huge letters across the box "SMOKING KILLS"
4)They say literally all the time, only it's pronounced "litrully." like "The post office is litrully on the street." or "you litrully just follow the path."
5)Eggs are not refrigerated, but kept on the shelf with the dry goods
6)If someone likes the idea of something they say they're "keen" on it. Ex. "I'm keen on meeting for dinner around 7."
I'll litrully send more as I notice them. I went grocery shopping and will probably make myself a scrummy dinner soon. I'm also quite keen on karaoke tonight, where I will not smoke any cigarettes because I've been properly warned that SMOKING KILLS.
