Biggie - This is unusual. A biggie is what a child calls his poo! Hence the reason Wendy's Hamburgers has never really taken off in England - who would buy "biggie fries"? Yuck - I'm sure you wouldn't buy poo fries! The other meaning of Biggie is erection. It just gets worse!

I work with Scots, English, Irish, South Africans and a host of people for whom English is not their native language.
I love hearing the differences in the English dialects in different cultures.
A lot of time they are really taken aback with some of my Southern sayings.
One of my Scottish Supervisors will speak Doric when he is stressed. When he asked me one day, "Dan, fit the feck you doon?", I just started laughing. By his tone, I knew he meant "Dan, what the f**k are you doing?", but is just struck me as funny.
"Pissed" means drunk.
"Pish" is about the same as "sh*t" in America. It can be good or bad.

My fav is "bugger off", "piss off", "wanker", and "fecking".
I don't speak "gangsta", but a whole nother thing.
I say all right like..ahrite --so it's "ahh" "rite". Store is sto'. Floor if flo'.
I say "get UP off da flo", "get up autta ma face", "we finna go to da sto".
Only with no spaces. "dis" is "that", "da" is "the", "Iaintfinnadriyounowere?....Im not going to drive you anywhere. Cuz every thing is a question.
Whodat means who is that. Whuttimisit...what time is it. Any word that has double T's is said with a "D".
"street" could be said either "skreet" or "stre". We (the city I'm from) always leave the last letter off our words.
So I world say...wealwayleavdalasledeoforwor's? "b!tch" is "BIT--ch", "fvck" is "FvcK". We can't talk. Oh and "can't" and "ain't" is "ciant" ain't is said the same way.
