Activities
- Some of my favourites in English. Chocolate teapot / chocolate fireguard = useless "My managers as much use as a chocolate tea pot." Bostin' (more Black country/ Staffordshire area) = Brilliant, awesome the best thing ever. Highest compliment we give. You might when describing a child say, "He / she's a little boster" = a good child. To half inch = to pinch/steal more about a friend borrowing with out asking or nicking (stealing) a chip of a friend/family members plate. Not for serious theft. "She's half inched my cuppa! (cup of tea)" Pickled = someome who's drunk. "He's well pickled" The Black sheep - someone who doesn't fit in. I'm English I don't know how many of these are in use in other English speaking Countries.December 4, 202017

- It originally comes from All Hallows eve (if you want to know more of the origin I can oblige. I would say that in England ( I can't speak for the rest of the isles) we didn't really celebrate it as much as we did acknowledge it you might have a party but only recently has the American tradition of trick and treat has become normal. Although for me this was discouraged as my mum was a believer in the pagan an considered the modern interpretation disrespectful, though we often had a gathering and a tarot reading.0 votedOctober 20, 20170
- English girl traveling to Siberia November/ December Help! Hi I know this isn't really a language question but I hope some one can help. I'm traveling to Novosibirsk in November for 5 weeks to visit a language school, it's a very different climate than I'm used to (in my bit of England we normally get snow for 2 weeks at no more than 1-2 ft...if at all.) That and I will be staying with a host family and obviously I wouldn't want to offend through my own ignorance. I've been trying to prepare my self as much as possible. If any one can offer advice either on how to deal with the weather or etiquette in a Russian home I would be very grateful!August 24, 201670
