Welshisms... 14:40 - Jun 15 with 11729 viewsBrynCartwright

Anyone got any Weshisms I haven't heard of? ...as in phrases like..

Who's coat that jacket?
I went outside and there was my bike, gone.
I'll do it now in a minute.

These would all entertain my English chums.

Parts of Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot pronounce wasp the same way as hasp or rasp and not 'wosp.'
It's tonking down with rain (p*ssing it down)
Stop tumbling in those cupboards (rummaging)
Come by 'ere and show me those earrings ewe got in your ears wot I gave ewe last year.
( 'ere, ear, year and the ear of earrings are all pronounced the same as year. )

I learnt the word Shunk when I moved to Port Talbot


Now there's a word from my youth.

Darran's a "shunk", no question.



How about..
"Give that here you are like an 'S' hook" (or it might be a welsh word spelled something like "eswyk" ..I never asked!) - Means; "You are f*cking useless"

"Loving f-u-c-k!" - Means; "Oh dear"

"Shavings!" - Means; "Shiiit!"

"My willy Ivor!" - Means; "My penis!"

"You beaut!" - Means; "You w*nker!"

"Pass me that over here Will" - Means; "Pass me that over here person whose name I either can't remember or cannot be arsed to put any thought towards remembering"....calling everybody "Will" is especially prevalent in Felindre, Port Talbot...f*ck knows why.

"Oh, now, don't get eggy with me...I'll f*cking 'ave ew now" - Means; "Don't lose your temper with me young man...or I will be forced to defend myself robustly"

"Iesi Mawr!" - Means; "Jesus Christ!", but literally "Big Jesus".

"Cowin' lush" - Means; "F*ckin' lovely"

"Is it now..." - Means; "I doubt it / a likely story"

"Shut your clanging man-hole!" - Means; "Shut your face!"

"That is f*cking mewling" - Means; " I don't like how that tastes"

"...she is tamping!" - Means; "She is literally bouncing with rage"

Does anyone else use bwp? Meaning a big baby?

Or whew? Spelling probably wrong. I don't know how to spell it in Welsh. Common in my family.

I often say 'I'm as full as an egg' after a large meal, and as a result now do my kids.

My point being that I can squeeze just a little bit more into the small air bubble that exists.

Not Welsh, but an Aussie mate at a BBQ came out with "I'm fuller than a fat girl's shoes".

"Whew" as a sort of exclamation? Is ringing a bell.

My lot didn't use "bwp".
They used "babbi" for baby and "bab" or "babs" for short....if somebody was being a big baby they would have said something like;
"Come on now babs"



Was in a dodgy band in my youth. If I had my time again I would definitely call that band;
'Loving F*ck'

To 'put something by' meaning 'put it away or tidy up' really annoys me.

More valleys really.

My favourite I have heard is "The beer was terrible. It was like making love in a canoe".

Yeah I've heard 'whew'...meaning a big baby or wuss...(not directed at me obviously! ) always wondered if it was a widely known word.

'Baba' is a word my parents used to use for baby.

How about 'twonk/twonc'...meaning someone is stupid. "Stop being a bloody twonk mun!"

"He's jawing me" - giving me lip

"Llawn fel wy" - stuffed eating. "Full as an egg"

"Wew" - fool

Another one that can be annoying is adding "or something" after a factual sentence.
"John's missus has left him for Dai or something..."

"Terry's got a dose of clap or something...."

Yeah, "twonk"...and "twp", "Dull", "Heller" (as in, "he's a hell of a boy aye!")


How about; "I'm creasing yer" - Meaning; "I'm laughing so much the wrinkles on my skin are creased"
Also can be used; "I'm f*cking creased"

Trying to think of stuff my sister, mum or aunties would come out with...

"Oh you are hanging!" - Means; "You are disgusting"

"Oh that nappy is mewling!" - Means; "That nappy/diaper smells vile!"

"Leave him alone he's handsome" - Means "That boy is too damned good looking to be told off for whatever misdemeanor he has got up to this time."

"[Insert boy's name here]'s rugby bag is bogging, his dad will have to sort it out" - Means; "My son's disregard for personal hygiene is the responsibility of his father....who is also bogging"

Some of the stuff some the males of the family would come out with (not entirely sure these are all specifically Welsh)...

"Now, now, lovely boy..." - Means; "You may be spreading your wings and fancying yorself as some sort of alpha male but you are a mere pansy compared to me"

"Shape on it!" (Usually while driving) - Means; "Look over there, that girl/woman's tits, hips, arse etc. are perfectly in proportion "

"awww, you didn't did you? She's a f*cking munter" - Means; "This young lady you took home last night is not perfectly in proportion and has a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp"

"I'm only saying..." - Means; "Keep your hair on boy I am merely pointing out the obvious"
