      Not really a slang but I really like it when Brits use the word "bloody" to emphasize on something. :D

    As a native Brit I give this a 100% thumbs up. I would also add that in the North of England people address each other as 'love' or 'luv'. This is used to strangers when being friendly as well as amongst people who know each other. Women say it to men, other women and children. Men say it to women and children. But men don't usually say it to other men. In the north east of England where I come from a similar word, used in the same way is 'pet'.

    Great lesson. As an American English speaker, I learned some new words today. Btw for non English speakers, in America, mate is your spouse or significant other.

    Thanks a lot for teaching British slang words, being a British. I think it's easy to learn English language from a British but tough to learn the different words, accent, slang from an Indian who knows British English.
