fratellone

An Italian word that translates to "big brother" in english. The word is informal and affectionate, used between either close brothers, or even close friends, and in Italian is taken to mean "big bro." It is not to be confused with the literal translations, "maggiore fratello", which is extremely formal and literal for "older brother", or "grande fratello", which is a translation of George Orwell's Big Brother in the novel 1984.

Yeah, I really look up to my fratellone.

We're bros, he's my fratellone

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
