Re: Euro (mostly British) Phrases that are catching on in the U.S.?
I love "dodgy". I nearly fell in love with the last English girl who told me that something was "a bit dodgy, i'nnit?" Actually, I don't know what it is but I love when girls in general say dodgy.
Brilliant I've heard used a lot recently in the States, probably influenced by the Guinness commercials.
With regards to guv'nah, the only time I heard it used a lot was while I was in London. Everyone was either guv'na or a geezer. The person who I heard most often referred to guv'nah was the proprietor of the local pub.
