A Girls' Guide to Cockney Rhyming Slang

To all those not knowing of the ultimate dialect, behold Cockney. Rhyming. Slang. *awaits applause*

  • Havin a giraffe =a laugh
  • Bubble= Bubble Bath = Laugh (thats the real one)
  • Airy Muff= Fair enough
  • Porkies = pork pies = lies
  • Apples = apples and pears = stairs
  • Barnet = Barnet Fair = hair
  • Dog = dog and bone = telephone
  • Jam = jam jar = car
  • Water = water bottle = throttle
  • China = china plate = mate
  • Pony = pony and trap = crap (to defecate or meaning something is rubbish = not very good-if you didn't already know)
  • Saucepan = saucepan lid = kid
  • Frog = frog and toad = road
  • Trouble = trouble and strife = wife
  • Tom = Tom Tit = shit (to defecate or meaning something is rubbish = not very good)
  • Listerine = Anti Septic = Septic Tank = Yank = American (From The U.S.A.)
  • Ginger-ginger beer-queer

That's all I need to function in my daily life, so it should be enough to impress your friends.
