Berk and loaf

[edit]

I see nobody's included the famous "berk", or is that too near the knuckle? Neither is using one's "loaf" in the list, or is that too twee? Dieter Simon

You can add "snake's hiss, piss" if you want.

Casting the net a bit wide?

[edit]

We've cut down on the examples of commonly used CRS and are insetead getting general UK or CRS painted as local to other regions

  • "arse, the Scots word for buttocks" Arse = UK word for, um, arse.
  • In Republic Of Ireland "Brown bread =>dead" Certainly London/CRS if not near universal.

Brass

[edit]

Always thought brass was 'brass door - whore' not what is cited in this page

Reference to "Algospeak"

[edit]

Algospeak uses similar methods of rhymes and homonyms to avoid penalties on social media. See Algospeak#Examples. I think this should mentioned somewhere in the article. ~2026-94913-8 (talk) 22:40, 11 February 2026 (UTC)Reply
