Re: Euro (mostly British) Phrases that are catching on in the U.S.?
I'm a southerner and have heard 'guv' and 'guvnah' used a few times, normally by the lowest of the working classes, usually in the pub as a greeting. Don't hear it that frequently though.
'Chief' and 'skip' I've heard here and there too.
Don't northerners use 'me' instead of 'my' a lot? As in 'You should see me new motor'
Saying that, we never use the term 'auto' to refer to a car. We call it 'car', 'motor' or 'wheels'.
Also, what about using the word 'fit' to describe attractive birds
