- Dad gum.

Very funny when you see it written.

- [Both] Dad gum.

[upbeat music]

- Hello, I am Charlie Hunnam.

- He would be the Geordie.

This is.

- I'm Hugh Grant.

I will be instructing you on British Slang.

- And I am Matthew McConaughey.

I will be giving you the howdys, from Texas.

So, what do we got first?

Oh, speaking of howdys.

- [Hugh] That's one of the British ones.

- Would you say that please?

- Howdy.

- Howdy.

That's it, it is one of the British ones.

The Texans stole that or did you steal that from us?

- You stole pretty much everything.

- We probably did.

- [Charlie] Wor.

- [Both] Wor.

- Is that Geordie?

- I think so.

I don't know if that's the right spelling,

but wor like wor-kid.

- [Both] What?

- Like, you say wor-kid like you would say my friend,

or my son, or my little brother would be wor-kid.

- It means our kid?

- Yeah, it means wor.

- It's very interesting, a lot of it comes from Scandinavian

because the Vikings came over to that part of the world.

- Hence, my blonde beard.

- Yeah, look how Scandinavian he looks.

- Yeah. - Looks like Bjorn Borg.

- With a great hairline.

- With a man bun.

- Yeah.

[group laughing]

- [Matthew] Clarts.

- Clarts, as in clarty, as in dirty.

Devin, bring them clarty boots in here.

- Yeah. - Really?

- [Charlie] Ha, Jack the Lad.

- [Matthew] Jack the Lad.

- Well everyone in this movie's a Jack the Lad really.

It's a villain.

- Did you know that Jack O'Connell has Jack the Lad

tattooed on his arm?

And he is a Jack the Lad.

So it works.

- Someone who, you know, a bit of wheeler dealing.

Someone might say, you know, can we trust--

- He's a wise-guy. - Roger.

I don't know, he's a bit of a Jack the Lad.

- Someone that might pick your pocket.

- The upper class perspective [laughs].

- I like that one.

Y'all, that's just an easy one.

You all.

It's a bit of wor.

- Wor.

- But it's for--

- [Both] Everyone.

- But you sprinkle it everywhere.

- It's very sprinkle-able.

- [Charlie] [chuckles] Dad gum.

- It's a nice way to say instead of saying,

you teach a kid instead of saying damn it.

- Oh, dad gum.

- Oh, dad gum.

- Darn it.

- Yeah, very funny when you see it written.

- Dad, gum? - Dad gum.

- [Matthew] Fixin' to, so, I'm about to.

- Oh.

- Fixin', so, where y'all going?

- [Charlie] Oh, I don't know we're--

- Well I'm fixin' to have my lunch.

[camera crew laughs]

- [Both] Barmy.

- [Matthew] Barmy.

- Well he's barmy, isn't he?

He's barmy.

- Bit mental.

- Yeah? - Bit mental, yeah.

- Bit of a mental case.

- All the cricket supporters,

who go around the world supporting the England team,

are known as the Barmy Army.

They dress up in silly costumes.

They are barmy.

- Bit of a lunatic, bit of a what?

- There was some-- - Mad?

- Jack the Lads in there.

- [Hugh] Bonce.

- [Charlie] Bonce.

- You know, a footballer, soccer player,

might say, you want to bonce mate?

[grunts] That's your head.

- [Matthew] Bless your heart.

- That's universal.

- Yeah bless your heart. - English language.

- Women in Texas, in the South, oh bless your heart.

When you're going through a bit of a tough moment.

Dad gum.

- [Charlie] We're learning things.

- [Hugh] Collywobbles.

- Collywobbles.

That's some old English.

- If you're nervous, first day on the set,

oh I've got the collywobbles.

- Oh, is it the butterflies? - Butterflies.

- Yeah, butterflies in your stomach.

- Could it go all the way through

and also mean the [beep]?

I've just collywobbled me pants.

- Yes it could.

Quite onomatopoeic really.

It's a noise you make in your lower gut when you're scared.

- [Charlie] Corn-fed.

- How do we use corn-fed?

Usually you're looking for big, offensive,

and defensive linemen in American football.

Big, thick, young men oh, they're corn-fed.

We use it in Texas, oh he's corn-fed,

someone who's corn-fed is not gonna be your

quickest guy on the team.

Not gonna be your swiftest.

He's gonna be big, burly.

- Also, mainly for men?

Also women?

Is she a looker?

[winces] Bit corn-fed.

- Perfect.

- [Charlie] Dad gum.

- [Both] Dishy.

- Oh, she's a bit dishy.

- Oh, dishy.

- Is it like, a good scoop?

- Very 1960s.

What was his name, that actor?

Leslie Phillips.

Oh, hello. - She's a bit dishy.

- Look at her, she's a dish.

- She's not corn-fed.

Bit dishy.

- [Both] Gaffer.

- That's the boss, that's the boss in London.

- Yeah, the old gaffer.

- There is actually a gaffer on a film set still to this day

who's the head of the electrical department.

Taxi drivers in London all say

where'd you wanna go there, gaffer, sometimes.

- All hat, no cattle.

That's sort of like a drugstore cowboy in Texas.

Meaning the package is wrapped up nice,

but there's no product in the box.

They're not a gaffer.

Dad gum it.

- [Hugh] Gogglebox.

- The gogglebox, that's the TV innit?

- Is it?

- That's your television set.

Your gogglebox. - Your telly.

- [Charlie] Netty.

- Netty.

- That's the toilet isn't it?

Just going to the netty.

- Going to the netty I've got the cobble, what is it?

Cobble, cobblewobbles, cobble stones?

- Collywobbles.

- Collywobbles.

- Yeah, you'd need the netty.

- [Charlie] Bairn.

- That's you.

- That's Geordie right, kid?

- Of course it's also Scandinavian.

Swedish word is barn for a child.

I know this because I've got three barns.

Bairn is what it became over in the North of England.

- [Both] Manky.

- Manky, that's Newcastle too, it's just a bit dirty.

It can be an inanimate object or it can be a person.

Shoes are a bit manky, oof.

Radgie, that can be a term of endearment or the opposite.

Radgie is a bit mental.

Stay away from him, he's [beep] radge.

- Really?

- He's a radgie, bit unpredictable, bit mad.

Or, did you have a good time?

Oh it was [beep] radge.

- [Both] Belta.

- Belta is top class, top class.

Oh man, it was belta.

- Could a man be a belta and dude?

- Oh yeah, he's a belta.

You'll have a good time with Matthew, belta lad.

- That dog don't hunt.

That's a good one, yeah, that means, well,

that just doesn't add up.

- Oh I feel sorry for that dog that doesn't hunt.

- [Both] Canny.

- There's a lot of Geordie here.

You've gone Geordie-heavy.

I don't know why I've just developed a Geordie accent

through this whole thing also.

Canny means, good.

Like, salt of the earth.

- [Both] In tall cotton.

- That sounds, very Texan. - What does that mean?

- I'm gonna guess that it's when things are going,

really well, I mean like, the cotton was tall,

and it was full, and it was a good harvest.

- In the summer time when the cotton is high.

[Matthew whistles]

- Roadman.

Roadman, I think that I say this in the film,

but I don't know what it is.

I think it's sort of a gangster

that's inclined maybe to sell drugs.

Like if you're out on the road,

you say that in London right?

The new generation.

- When I'm selling drugs, I'm usually know as--

- [Charlie] As the roadman?

- Roadman, yeah.

- Khazi.

Khazi is a toilet isn't it?

I said to a grip on an English film,

I said, "What you been up to?"

He said, "I was on that Bond film."

I said, "Oh is that fun?

"Yeah, well it was in Venice."

I said, "Well Venice, that's a lovely place to be.

"Got to be honest with you Hugh,

"it was a [beep] khazi."

"Venice?

"Surely it's not, it's one of the seven

"wonders of the world.

"Nah it's a [beep] khazi."

- [Both] Peas.

- Modern day London fare, bit of wonga.

I don't know if it designates a specific amount of money,

or it's just like, you know, a bag of cash.

An envelope of cash, making peas.

Roadman is out making peas.

- Mug.

How's your mug.

- Well we were just mugging then.

You can mug someone off, you can be a mug.

A mug means like a soft target.

Like you're a mug.

Or an idiot.

- Or your face actually.

- Or if you are the recipient of an insult,

you could've just got mugged off.

Geezer.

[beep] Three geezers right here.

- Gaffer.

- He's a diamond geezer.

- Yeah, proper geezer.

- That's a compliment?

- Oh, the highest.

Will he let you down?

Nah mate, he's a geezer.

Proper geezer.

- What's between a geezer and a,

who's the one? - [Hugh] Jack the Lad?

- Yeah, Jack the Lad.

- It's a josser innit?

- Yeah it'd be a josser [laughs].

- I mean a geezer is a bit more

rough around the edges than a gentleman.

Oh, he's a proper gentleman him.

Nah mate, he's a bit more of a geezer.

- Yeah that's the opposite of a gentleman, really.
