What words do you refuse to use?

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

Nothing wrong with bairn. It's part of our local dialect.

Appreciate that, but I personally don’t like it.

 

[pillars of hercules]

Appreciate that, but I personally don’t like it.

Fair enough, but a bit of an odd one if you're a native.

 

[palm 1]

Lush.
Horrendous word used by imbeciles.

Even worse when it’s preceded with the word “pure”.
Cushty is bad as well .

 

[Son of Stan]

Appreciate that, but I personally don’t like it.

I've never used the word 'bairn' out loud in my life. I had no idea it was still used until I came on here.

 

[Abu Dhabi Red and White]

I've never used the word 'bairn' out loud in my life.

Do you whisper it to yourself?

 

[billybumbler]

Oftentimes and addicting

FFS!

One thing I like about the Jocks is how they continue to use their own words and aren't ashamed of it. Use the word 'bairn' unapologetically.

No one uses it in Glasgow because it's an English word

I've got Scotch mates. I'm aware they use the word 'wean'. I should've typed it 'I use the word bairn unapoligetically'.

My favourite one they use is 'mind' for 'remember'. Like "A cannae mind..."

 

[Keawyeds]

And/or make you cringe?

For me its "awesome" or "rocking" (as in "so and so is rocking the new autumn/winter trend").

Aaargh.

I refuse point blank to say "pre-order". You can't pre-order something. If you order something, you wait for it to arrive, regardless of whether it's ready or not.

bairn is a lovely word, use it all the time. sweeter than using 'child'.

Sweet bairn o'mine doesn't sound quite right mind

 

[Wild Card]

The word "hack" or "life hack" instead or hints or tips I hate it. A hack was/is a scruffy/smelly kid when I was at school.
