^ I always thought a Togue was a knitted cap?

Yup, it is! But I've recently found out that not all Americans call them that...soooo, for the folks outside of Canada, what do you call a knitted cap you wear in the winter?
 
"I'd tapp that"

translates to - "I would have sex with them"!
 
Fellow Aussies especially will enjoy this (the 'ecksint' might be lost on you foreigners! ;) ) ....

Another local term...

Kak (pronounced with the ak sounding like uck in "luck") - it means shit in Afrikaans, in either the literal or figurative way.
In fugurative terms:
"You talk kak" is calling bullshit on someone.
"It tastes kak" means it does't taste very nice, and so on.

Further, the word can be used to emphasise something, replacing the term very or extremely. Thus:
"That movie was kak funny" would describe Jackass the Movie.
"That movie was kak stupid" would define a Mary-Kate and Ashley movie.


I hope you're all brushing up here - there will be an exam on this at the end of the semester.

Howzit

Not to mention:

Bra (pronounced Bra :-)) used to denote a friend, as in 'Howzit my Bra'
Tjommie (pronounced Chommie): also used to denote friend, as in 'My tjommie and I were..."
 
We are quite big on the slangs in SA...a couple more for ya:

China: used to denote a friend/pal, or just a person in general: what's up mah China's. When said with a the 'accent' of a particular suburb it sometimes comes out: My Choyna!

Doos (pronounced Doos): literally meaning Box. Colloq. used to denote a stupid person (as stupid as a box): Tom Cruise was behaving like a doos on the Oprah show!

Yebo (pronounced Yeah Boh)...it became very popular after it was used in a cell phone ad. Used to denote/indicate 'Yes'. The original phrase was used in conjunction with 'Gogo' (gog oh), as in Yebo Gogo. eg. You going to the shop? Yebo (gogo)
 
^What does stone the crows mean?

I assume we're not beaning unfortunate birds with rocks, of course, although I've seen it done... well, it was someone kicking a pigeon, ad it was hilarious because it was so unexpected, but that's a whole other story.

Still, stone the crows?

"The Aviator" should post some slang. I have no idea what the hell he's talking about half the time when I chat with him. :badgrin:
 
^Frog and toad I'm guessing is old English rhyming slang for "hit the road."

As for the Aviator, send him in!

An exercise in double negatives I heard
"I didn't never hear nothing like it not never I didn't" = I never heard anything like it

Rhyming Slang "he's a merchant banker" = he's a wanker

"The vatican is full of Purple Papal People"

"pig farm" = Police station

"Burley Chassis" = Shirley Bassey.

Woman says to Winston Churchill "Sir you are drunk" he replies "And you madam are ugly but I will be sober in the morning"

"No known I was there" = even though I was there
 
"Brings home the bacon!"

ex. Why are you doing that stupid job? Well it brings home the bacon.

It provides you with an income.
 
Didn't know some of these myself...

Under the Weather -
If a crewman is standing watch on the weather side of the bow, he will be subject to the constant beating of the sea and the ocean spray. He will be under the weather.

A Square Meal -
In good weather, crews' mess was a warm meal served on square wooden platters.

Let the Cat Out of the Bag -
In the Royal Navy the punishment prescribed for most serious crimes was flogging. This was administered by the Bosun's Mate using a whip called a cat o' nine tails. The "cat" was kept in a leather or baize bag. It was considered bad news indeed when the cat was let out of the bag. Other sources attribute the expression to the old english market scam of selling someone a pig in a poke(bag) when the pig turned out to be a cat instead.

No Room to Swing a Cat -
The entire ship's company was required to witness flogging at close hand. The crew might crowd around so that the Bosun's Mate might not have enough room to swing his cat o' nine tails.

At Loggerheads -
An iron ball attached to a long handle was a loggerhead. When heated it was used to seal the pitch in deck seams. It was sometimes a handy weapon for quarrelling crewmen.

The Bitter End -
The end of an anchor cable is fastened to the bitts at the ship's bow. If all of the anchor cable has been payed out you have come to the bitter end.

Three Sheets to the Wind -
A sheet is a rope line which controls the tension on the downwind side of a square sail. If, on a three masted fully rigged ship, the sheets of the three lower course sails are loose, the sails will flap and flutter and are said to be "in the wind". A ship in this condition would stagger and wander aimlessly downwind.

Mind your P's and Q's -
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them to mind their own pints and quarts and settle down.

Bob's your Uncle -
A way of saying "you're all set" or "you've got it made." It's a catch phrase dating back to 1887, when British Prime Minister Robert Cecil (a.k.a. Lord Salisbury) decided to appoint a certain Arthur Balfour to the prestigious and sensitive post of Chief Secretary for Ireland.
Not lost on the British public was the fact that Lord Salisbury just happened to be better known to Arthur Balfour as "Uncle Bob." In the resulting furor over what was seen as an act of blatant nepotism, "Bob's your uncle" became a popular sarcastic comment applied to any situation where the outcome was preordained by favoritism. As the scandal faded in public memory, the phrase lost its edge and became just a synonym for "no problem."
