Doggo

It’s an informal adverb principally meaning in concealment or out of sight. It is usually used in the phrase lie doggo meaning to hide and keep quiet, but can also be used on its own to mean “keep quiet about something” or “don’t tell anyone”.

Gowk

Gowk (pronounced ɡaʊk) is a noun with a number of meanings. It is sometimes used to mean a cuckoo or an awkward, clumsy or stupid person. Apparently the word goes back to ancient German and could mean a bastard, simpleton, or fool, which gives its commonest usage namely an awkward or foolish person. There is also a third totally distinct meaning; in Geordie dialect it means an apple core.
“You passed your kid off as his? You fucking gowk!”

BBA

British Army slang acronym from around the time of World War 2 and stands for balls, bum and armpits. This referred to the areas washed when time is of the essence or water in short supply. It is somewhat similar to an airplane bath but less thorough than HF-AGBA. It was extremely common during the 1950s when National Service in the armed forces was compulsory in Britain for males between the ages of 17 and 21.

Invariably

Invariably is an adverb which means each time or upon every occasion. If you see a particular person that you loathe and despise coming towards you and you always get that sinking feeling in your stomach, then that is invariably what happens. You know that every time you see them they’ll have that shit-eating grin on their face that each time you see it makes you feel sick, then that is invariably what happens as well. You know too, because it happens every time that, without even saying “Hello”, they’ll start dishing the dirt on somebody because that is what invariably happens. I thought a few examples might help to clarify things, but I’m not invariably right.
Politicians invariably distort the truth and avoid giving straight answers.

Newted

English slang deriving from the expression pissed as a newt. It, along with the expression from which it is derived, is used to described someone who has enjoyed more alcoholic refreshment than is good for them. This has left them inebriated to the extent that they fail to recognise themselves in a mirror and have lost perspective, decency and bladder control.
“Malcolm got newted at the office do and called the boss a monkey fucking turd face!”
“Did he get potted?”
“No, the boss was even more newted than Malcolm.”
