Wee Bear Scottish Word of The Day

[Judge_Daniel]

I wonder if blether means anything similar to blather...That'd be too easy, though.

 

[TheWeeBear]

You never know Judge_Daniel, but to be honest, I don't know what blather is, so give it a try.

 

[Judge_Daniel]

To blather is to ramble or talk incessantly.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Well there you go, very similar words indeedy. I guess you got it.

Blether in Scottish just means idle chatter or gossip.

I'm just going round to the neighbour's now for a wee blether.

Well done Judge_Daniel. I'll need to step up the difficulty.

 

[Judge_Daniel]

What, what! Over here, we'd say, "Stop blathering, you idiot! You've been going on for hours!"

I think I'll have myself a little drink for getting the word of the day.

 

[TheWeeBear]

I think you should indeed Judge_Daniel.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Good Morning WPCentrallers!

Todays word is 'Drookit'

 

[Judge_Daniel]

I'm going to guess it is like a druid.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Not as easy as yesterday Judge_Daniel, nope it's not druid related.

 

[Judge_Daniel]

Darn. Guess I can't win all the time. :\

 

[TheWeeBear]

Dear me, I just checked the Texas time, coming up to 4 AM yikes, it's coming up to 10 AM here.

Timezones always facinate me.

(I'm still half asleep too, YAWN!)

 

[Judge_Daniel]

Yep. I'm a college student, so I'm usually still up this late. I need to change that, though, since classes just started last week.

 

[TheWeeBear]

LOL I wasn't criticising you for being up late Judge_Daniel.

It is the weekend now, so you're allowed.

 

[Judge_Daniel]

That it is, although I took it entirely too easy for the first Friday night of the semester. My roommates, a couple of friends, and I rearranged my entire apartment and built an end table. This is a three-day weekend, so I have plenty of time to change things.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Good stuff.

 

[Dave Blake]

It what happened to someone when they stand outside in the rain.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Woo yes it is indeed Dave. Well Done!

I went into town to do some shopping and the heavens opened, and when I got back home i was absolutely drookit.
(Soaking through & through)

 

[Dave Blake]

Don't ask me why I knew that I think I seen it in a movie or something but I cant remember.

 

[TheWeeBear]

I'll have to start making 'I Speak Scottish' bumper stickers for the US market Dave.
