Ohhh! I love this idea:)I try my best to speak British English with my sons because that is what they are learning in school. I'm and American living in France. It is really not easy for me though!
I love this. It is sooooo windy here today, I think when my mother arrives I will use this word. I am sure she will look at me blankly, which will be all the funnier. :)
(She is driving home to Ohio from Arizona and stopping here for a night or two.)
Narked. I like it. I think I'll start using it, but of course it won't be the same without the accent.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if narked is related to the word snarky. I have a Canadian friend who refers to someone who is acting up as snarky.

Definitely a useful word.
ReplyDeleteI say "I'm naffed off" a lot too. Courtesy of the great Ronnie Barker who made it up for "Porridge".
I like this word, too. It sounds like what it is.
ReplyDeleteGirl, this wind has me narked too. Seriously, can't even open the car door in the driveway. It is ridiculous. Doesn't help the sinuses either!
