"Being a lesbian sucks sometimes. You tell another girl she's a hottie, and she says, "thanks" like we're being friendly. I ain't just being friendly, I'm trying to fuck!"

I think I translated it correctly.

[-] ladicius@lemmy.world 130 points 1 year ago

Thanks for translating. As a non native English speaker I nearly got a stroke trying to understand these.... words.

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 63 points 1 year ago

To assist:

  • Lesbo: short for lesbian
  • Pish: an expression of frustration
  • Bangin': hot
  • nd: and
  • ye: you
  • am no: I'm not
  • tae: to
  • yer: your
  • pal: friend
  • shag: have sex with
[-] punkwalrus@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I got all of that except "shag ye x," because it sounds like "shag (fuck) you x," where "x" is the subject that is a bit vague. Like, "I'm trying to shag you, love?" or "Fuck your ex," as in, the last person you broke up with?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 45 points 1 year ago

"x" is a kiss, used as an informal "yours truly" in British English digital correspondence

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Wait, I thought 'x' was hug and 'o' was kiss. Have I been wrong all these years??

[-] sjmarf@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

X is kiss, O is hug (at least, in the UK it is)

I could be wrong, but I thought the x at the end was just a cutesy sign-off. Like "xoxo" type of thing.

[-] ZeroTHM@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure it's the x in "xoxo", the old convention for hugs and kisses.

[-] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

xoxo... the old convention for hugs and kisses.

The release of Shrek is closer to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the invention of the Sony Walkman than it is to today

Isn't "coming from you" a put down? Or does it more mean "you care about fashion and looks, so obviously you know"?

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 63 points 1 year ago

It’s an amplifier. “You’re hot” makes it mean “someone as hot as you thinks I’m hot? Damn”, “you smell terrible” makes it mean “how the fuck do you of all people even notice my small with that rank odor”

...And she says, "thanks" knowing I'm a lesbian and appreciate female beauty sexually taking the complement more intensely. I ain't just being....

I swear Scottish people are the only ones who type in their own phonetic accent

[-] BluesF@feddit.uk 40 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

~~Scots isn't just an accent, it's a language in its own right.~~

~~Although honestly I'm not sure how much of this is Scots and how much is just specific to Scottish twitter lol~~

So actually having done some more reading this isn't Scots - I'm fairly sure this is Scottish English which is somewhat a merging of Scots with English.

Lots of people do it here in Austria too, and I hate it.

A geh, is doch iagendwie liab, oda?

Übahaupt, jetzt wo si Hochdeutsch imma mea duachsetzt, und vü junge Leit übahaupt nimma richtig östareichisch^1^ redn leanan, missn ma doch schaun, dass unsa Sproch net oafoch ausstiabt, oda?

Mia hom a a longe Tradition, wonns um Mundoatdichtung geht. Da Dichta von da obaöstareichischn Hymne zum Beispü, da Stelzhamer Franz, hot gonz vü in Mundoat gschribn.

Und weis ma grod eifoit: Es gibt a a eigene Wikipedia in unsam Dialekt: https://bar.wikipedia.org/ Oba do dua i ma söm schwah, dass i des vasteh. De is scho in da äagstn von de oagn Mundoatn gschribm.

(So, jetzt woas i net, wöcha Sproch i im Dropdown do untn auswöhn soid... Wei wirklich Deitsch is des jo net...)

[^1^] I am fully aware that the dialect I'm writing in is not called "Austrian". The two big dialects spoken in Austria are "Alemannic" and "Bavarian", and the one I'm writing is the Bavarian dialect. I'm only using the word "östareichisch" here, because that's what I expect most people to use in spoken conversation.

It's easier if you read it out loud with a Scottish accent. Works for novels as well!

“Nac Mac Feegle! The Wee Free Men! Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae master! We willna' be fooled again!”

U can make one, then post the reddit posts here until the sub goes off

[-] crackajack@reddthat.com 12 points 1 year ago

The least politically loaded and agenda-pushing peopletwitter. That sub encapsulates the lightheartedness of Scottish people.
