chantoose 

Chantoose" does not strike me as a common word in English but I have seen it used in phrases such as "a French cabaret chantoose". It took me a while to realize that, in fact, it of course means "chanteuse" (French, feminine, for "singer", the masculine being "chanteur" - "chanter" is "to sing", hence the English "a chant"). As I understand, "chantoose" is a semi-phonetic transcription into English of the French term. forum.wordreference.com/threads/chantoose-use-of-the-word.96106/
Quoting: James Brandon
phrases such as "a French cabaret chantoose” Would you say it is pretentious, and/or for/by arty types, and/or used ironically (cf "thespian" for "actor", for instance).

Chanrose 

Chanrose is a sweet girl, specifically from KOREA. She can be a little moody at times, but the best thing you can do is give her some space. Chanrose has a lot of information about emotions, and can really help you out during a bad day. She's confident, brave smart, and amazing, but she's judged by her voice and her looks. She may seem scary, but once she opens up, you won't want to ever leave her side. Her ideal type would be someone who she can have long conversations with.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
