to ask what you call farts?

[melonandpapayaandmango]

I just noticed on the other thread there was a reference to a pump - AIBU or is this a horrible word?

They are farts in this house but I tell DD and DS1 to not do them in public or talk about them. DD's nursery call them trumps and I wish they wouldn't as she laughs like a loon at Nellie the Elephant now ...

It's fart here - and if it's a particularly spectacular one, there's generally a round of applause and "good arse"!

Unless it's the dog - his farts can strip paint at twenty paces

Are we the only family that calls them fluffs? I grew up thinking this was an official term, but maybe my Mum made it up...

Haha MrsVestibule - Pump sounds like you're pushing and straining out the fart!

In our house we say 'who stood on the duck?' or 'another cake vicar?' when one of us farts....

Pumps. I hate the word fart.

Pimps here.

farts

but I blame it on a large invisible duck that has wind issues that lives in our house

he's friends with the 'size of a small car' rabbit that lives in our area

Trousertrumpets!!

Outfoxed - I LOVE that!!

A whole 3.5 pages and nobody's said parp yet? We got it from Elephant Wellyphant when dd1 was about 2 and it's stuck ever since.

DS says bottom burp. We say fart. My parents used to say ' rude noise'.

My friend's Gran calls it ' letting Polly out of prison'.

welsh fluff/fluffed possibly a welsh thing I say it too although DCs say fart I try to get thm to say fluff in public (dd likes to aanounce when she has done one)

I grew up in the north east in the late 70s/80s. Fart was considered a swear word, we said pump.

Farty pants here. as in 'frownys done a farty pants!'. This is thanks to mym dad as this is what he said when we were growing up. Also he used to call me frowny face too. He has alot to answer for.

knackeredmother Pump here too!
My gran used to say " who's let Polly out of prison or who's let Polly out of the cage" in a faux posh voice. As kids we used to roll about in a kink.

what if you've farted but it's silent celtic?

KenDodd where's your Gran from?

melon I think my mum preferred to ignore the SBVs!

POOOOOOP!

Used to say pump when I was little but now it's fart, parp or some reference to the frogs...can't remember how that came about...

we call them pops.... but my ds's often love to talk about farting and well...as boys are they generally seem to enjoy to talk about noisy inappropriate bodily functions :D

Fluffs when we were little (another Taff here). My DSil said fluff the other day, I cracked up

Going through school we used to say guffs/blown off/trumps.

Trumps and farts now.

I said pump when I was young and I'm from Cumbria originally. My scouse friend still says it.

These days it's fart. Although I have a habit of referring to my baby's farts as trumples which I should get out of!
