To ask why people use 'naive'?

[NNDS]

It does my head in!

As opposed to...?

Context?

Why?

Tiltle should read: Why people use the word 'naice'. Silly autocorrect!

Hahaha.
It's used to describe stuff that's a cut above bog standard.
Naice ham - not the wafer thin crap used by me peasants.

Ditto! I have never understood this. What's worse is that every time I say "nice" I automatically say "naice" in a silly voice

Ha ha, epic autocorrect title fail!

I don't use 'naice' myself but it doesn't bother me when others do, it's just one of those MN shorthands that has become a bit tired in the over-use, but most people know what is meant by it.

I quite like it. It has very different connotations from merely 'nice'. 'Naice' is niceness+snobbery. It's a handy term!

Don't even know why this particular word annoys me.

It was a very funny thread which is probably in Classics now about a shopping list that was found that unclouded the item 'naice ham'.
It was very funny at the time.

well because I went to a naice gels school in saith Ken
where a creche is two Range Rovers hitting each other

on the other hand niiiice refers to Jazz and the Fast Show

Hands up who has just said creche out loud to see if it sounds like a posh crash.... :o

Its a word used by people who want to be witty and humourus by copying other unfunny people.

I have never heard it used or spelt like that in RL, so am assuming it's just a word made up on here. Wanders off to check the dictionary...

its phonetic .... a bit like typing forriners
and having grown up around people whose accents were so cut glass they make the Queen sound common I love it

Well I look like a twat now, don't I.

Not at all, GaryTheTankEngine. I think you've come up with a lovely little nuance there:

Naice: adjective used by middle middle class MILFs who shop at Waitrose
Naïce : adjective used by upper middle class owners of holiday homes in the Dordogne

As Sauvignon says it is in reference to a really old but v funny thread about a shopping list.

I think it adds a small sense of irony

especially when typed with vair

Thanks for explaining
