Do you know what is meant by 'she does heehaw?'

[ILoveMyBobbleHat]

Said this about a particularly lazy colleague today and had my immediate neighbour in tears laughing at it!

I'm Scottish and she's English, she claims never to have heard it before!

I say Haud yer Hoarses to my 4yr old all the time...purely because she shouts back "we don't have horses, we have dogs

That's very cute

My husband loves to say haud yer wheesht, which is entertaining in a SA accent.

People aren't as tolerant of the oldies putting the silver in the pram I think. It's such a shame.

greetin for yer wee bawbee
(Sorry, @AsAProfessionalFekko, one singer, one song )

A winterdyke is a clothes horse/airer/dryer thingymabob. I'm not sure what they're actually called as I've grown up with it being winterdykes

I know what it means.

I’m Scottish though. Used to stay in England and always got a laugh at people apparently not understanding what I meant or laughing at phrases including:

Housecoat. They say dressing gown and house coat was funny apparently.
Wait the now. That was funny apparently.

Welcome home Sadie

There nothing like a bit of Scottish banter eh?!

Although, I have to say as a west coaster, my aberdonian pals come out with some Doric chat I can't decipher! Fits like ye, Quine

We have 'splunging' for very wet, and a glory hole where we keep the Hoover.

New baby in my family this year and son's carers still put coins in his pram/ car seat when they first met him.

Cludgie! I always get funny looks when I say cludgie.

Big light here too in Northern Ireland.

I knew what you meant but I live in Ulster Scots territory.

Have you seen the thread of baby name with a suggestion of Jobie?

💩

Aye of course I ken what that means!
Didn't know steeping was a Scottish thing though.

Another one of a slightly mathematical slant
Wan - one
Couple - two or three
Hunners - more than three
Pure Hunners - frickin millions! 😁

Love glaikit, coupon, dreich, bawbag etc

Explaining to friends that a fish supper includes chips and to ask for ‘one fish and chips’ will give you two chups.

And an odd one (but might just be me) “enough XYZ to choke a donkey”

Ah damn - just made myself hungry for a pizza crunch!

hunners= more than three

My DS came home from nursery, aged 3, perplexed, as his friend told him to put on his shin (shoes). Is this just local to me I wonder?

Another good Scottish word is stoory (dusty) Oh and how about redd up...away and redd up your room, it's a midden!

Keep the heid and dinnae git yet drawers in a fankle.

Skelpit, steamin, eejit.

Haha, together those could all apply to a lot of the youth during our unusually hot summer

DH particularly likes the phrase "he/she had a face like a skelpt erse"

Anyone else say 'fart in a trance'?

Twally
Stooshie
Stookie

Fart in a trance. Not heard that for donkeys.
