Pump

To break wind. A slang term from England that isn't used that much anymore because "fart" is more widely known and the word usually comes to mind quicker.

face

A known member of an organized crime gang in an English city, the term probably started in London. A bit like a "made guy" in the Mafia, someone to be weary of and treated with respect.

Limey

A word Americans use to describe an English or British person. Comes from when British sailors used to eat limes to avoid scurvy. Although some entries have described the phrase as derogatory, it's really not that offensive at all, certainly nothing like the N-word, for example. It depends on the context, if the American uses it affectionately, the Briton should have no reason to be offended. If the American uses it while hurling abuse and expletives at the Briton, than their whole tone is what's offensive rather than the use of the word "limey".
American: Hey there limey, how's it going in England?
Englishman: Fine thanks, are you alright?

Cab Driver: What, no tip? You cheap limey cocksucker!
Englishman: Well in Britain we don't tip EVERYONE, you Yank twat!

Moose

A large, ungainly girl (tall, well built than fat) who appears a bit dumb and/or clutzy, not particulary attractive. Or perhaps a girl who is a bit too big to be completely feminine, like Kimora Lee Simmons. Basically a girl whose physical presence is vaguely reminiscent of that hulking, slow-witted animal, the moose, which lacks the grace of something like a stag.
That girl is a real moose!

Moo

A less vulgar way of calling a woman a "cow". Johnny Speight, the creator of the classic British sitcom Til Death Us Do Part made this one of the catchphrases of the cantankerous bigot Alf Garnett (the inspiration for Archie Bunker) who constantly called his wife of many years Else a "silly moo". In the era of Mary Whitehouse this allowed Alf to be verbally abusive to her without actually swearing (although he often used the swearword "bloody").
