A term for one's significant other, to be used by adult heterosexual couples in long-term or lifelong, monogamous relationships who are serious, live together and have built their lives together, but have yet to get engaged or don't intend to marry at all.

Where "boyfriend/girlfriend" is too childish, "husband/wife" doesn't apply, "fiance" is dishonest, "partner" sounds homosexual and "lover" is too sexual, there is serioso. Coined by Chemda of the Keith and The Girl podcast, episode 130.
"My serioso and I are coming up on our six year anniversary."

Words you can keep

seriosity 

gravity, solemnity, sobriety, demureness, staidness, grimness,
I make this observation
With no animosity
And just a tiny modicum
Of curiosity:

Apparently there’s no such word
As seriosity
And it is my opinion that
There surely ought to be.

So in conclusion, I must say
(I hope you would agree)
This glaring oversight
Is sheer ludicrosity.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
