Etymology: Victorian underworld slang. An abbess (Latin abbatissa, fem. form of abbas, abbot) is the female superior, or Mother Superior, of an abbey or convent of nuns. Since the Elizabethan era, nun has been slang for a prostitute (ref. William Faulkner, "Requiem for a Nun"), and a nunnery referred to a brothel.

Get the abbelabben mug.Abesan is a amazing young individual with many talents up his sleeves. He is a hard worker and always does anything to meet the demands of others. If you ask him nicely he will help you out no matter what situation you are in. Furthermore Abesan is very intelligent but he often refuses to apply himself to his learning. Also Abesan is a very understanding person and will take care of you and make sure you feel welcome *insert smiley face here*. But if you piss him off then you better start running in the opposite direction as fast as you can cause your dead ...... :). Thanks guyssss :) x
