I think your ex mother-in-law meant au fait, French for being up to standard or up to date, especially re knowledge of something :)

Quoting 'brave__heart' I think your ex mother-in-law meant au fait, French for being up to standard or up to date, especially re knowledge of something :) Fitting when in context but somewhat biologically miss used... yanno ... technically

In a five star place, chowing down with some posh friends the woman comes around with the sweets cart all proper and posh and says to my husband would you like some Flange? In stead of Flan He roared with laughter, and was holding his sides. The wife of the other couple, kept saying, What’s so funny? He had tears in his eyes, and so did his mate. I just said, give me the sticky date pudding will ya? I am not the kind of girl to eat flange, and then that was when hubby , shot beer through his nose with laughter.

if I have committed that faux pas Crackie 'cos nobody has ever been brave enough to tell me. but I love words,I think they were almost my first love.My family didn't have many books but we had an illustrated dictionary which was very old and much loved.I used to read it all the time because I loved the beautiful illustrations. Words are like small gems,each new one is a gift,and it's not just the meaning of words that I love,it's how they sound.Sometimes the simplest words can be imbued with the sexiest meaning if said in the right way ,by the right person. You can stroke people with words...F.Scott Fitzgerald.

I find the word ofay really interesting, I had heard the terms honky and cracker used to refer to white people. In looking it up (ofay) in the Urban dictionary it has apparently lost its popularity, in favour of 'white devil' - So we can't use the N word, (which I wouldn't anyway) but these are acceptable?

Fantastic. Terrific. Awful. Based on their root words and original meanings, they are now contextually innaccurate. However, definitions evolve, so whilst they have come far from their origins, their current usages are also technically correct (by sheer erosion, lol). Facetious is often used incorrectly, as well. Including by me :P

Many years ago when I was at a specalist he asked me if I had Psoriasis and I said no, I don't drink that much! Psoriasis is a common skin condition that causes skin redness and irritation and Cirrhosis is the end result of chronic liver damage caused by chronic liver diseases! Pusscat xxx

Cant help using the word DAG. I think we all know what it means LOL but been saying it since I was a kid and didnt know the meaning, and still continue to use it when friends are just .... weird? "Ya Dag!" I also remember many years ago, early teens, the word 'cute'... I cant recal exactly why but something was said about checking the meaning of the word. Well to my surprise I was not going to be calling the boyfriend cute any more - Back then the meaning was 'ugly but interesting' ... and with times changing, so has the meaning of that word, we checked it a few years back and it now holds more akin to how we mean it than what its original meaning was. Awww how cute! LOL

My post that makes my last post make sense is missing... I remember posting on this thread that I was spelling wrapped wrong for years, then decided it must mean rapt... But noticed while I was googling today that wrapped is for real. Peachy, 60s babe

I have nothing to do with Brave_Heart, and it's okay if you ask that because I have nothing to hide! As I realised later yesterday, my posts are gone from this thread. I posted above to say so. Peachy (Mrs P, because calling myself Peachy, at the time, would have left hubby stuck with Pear :-D) (Deb/s because that's my name)

I was confused when I looked back after my first post... but I did have a chunk of posts deleted way back when one of the many times I thought about leaving lol... Obviously that didn't work out. You know, it's been a while since that thought of leaving has been constantly beating at my brain. What a relief. Peachy
