british slang

Slang deriving from Britain.

British slang isn't the same as the olden days we don't still say stuff like 'jolly good show' and eat cucumber sandwiches.. unless you are quite posh. We do still say 'bloody hell' quite a lot though. Mostly it is stuff like; innit chav well good brill mingin' wkd etc.
Just because one is british does not mean one uses british slang, one can be quite proper.

British

Something of the United Kingdom unless stated otherwise (Example, Northern Irish person could say they're Irish rather than British).

Common mistakes include:

British = English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish

Corrected:

English is an example of British,
Scottish is an example of British,
Welsh is an example of British,
Northern Irish is a technical example of British,
Irish is NOT an example of British due to Irish independence (Irish war of independence)
