AnnaMariaPetra Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Rabbit or Bunny? My 10-year old daughter had her weekly english lesson at school today. They had to translate the dutch word konijn, and almost everybody said Bunny. But the teacher told them that that was totally wrong it should be Rabbit.... Could someone explain please?

And you need to learn to use apostrophes: I'm, can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CazGirl Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Really .. my feelings dont get hurt these days Im like a hard nut , you cant crack me I'll jump on you then. It's a common error that Brits tend to make, but it's "should HAVE" or "would HAVE", not "of" Or "should've"/"would've". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CazGirl Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 (edited) What's a chav? A chav, stereotypically in the UK, is someone who wears tracksuit (usually pink for girls), greasy/pulled back/bleached blonde/bad hair extensions (again, girls), smokes, lots of big, gold jewellery, speaks like a commoner with very little understanding of how the English language works, likes to get drunk, sometimes have children at a young age, wear Burberry... honestly, it continues. Here's a TV character from Little Britain called "Vicky Pollard" http://chavspeak.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/chav-pregnant-lovely.jpg http://s.bebo.com/app-image/6533361867/6533211551/PROFILE/i.idlestudios.com/img/q/u/08/04/05/chav2.jpg Edited January 21, 2010 by CazGirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soaring Simpson Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 :roftl: You killed me ... Caz that Will Young thing is about the funniest thing I ever saw- why did I think I could watch it while drinking a glass of wine? I wouldn't say Will Young was camp on it though. Its very common to say bunny rabbit here , not so much adults but kids for sure Yeah, but once you get to school they do tend to stop them.
