Yes.

t. retard

it should be taking the goofy desu

literally never heard anyone use 'to knock up' in that context

>he has never taken the Michael
taking the Mickey is what you say around kids, because the actual phrase is "taking the piss"
Then you need to get yourself living in a real part of the country lad

Also, it's a myth that "not bad" means very good. It CAN mean that, depending on how it's said. But it can also mean something's just alright

"Not good", however, is always reserved for things that are very bad

>Then you need to get yourself living in a real part of the country lad
He's right though, "to knock up" means impregnate here, not 'to visit'.

I'm guessing you're a London paki/nigger, because no one in the north/Wales/Scotland says that.

2 world wars and 1 world cup

Knock up meaning to impregnate is an Americanism. You're an Americanised teenage paki.

Except it's not though, Ahmed. It originated in the UK and was adopted by the US.

Back on your banana boat and fuck off to Karachi you stinking shitskin cunt.

There is endless data on the internet that proves you wrong.

pretty sure knock up is something we took from bongs tbf

The paki is correct.

Is this /bundes/?

for me it's elevenses

that's one thing less than what we have of those

>the Oxford English dictionary traces the expression back as far as 1813 and says it's of American origin

quora.com/What-are-the-origins-of-the-phrase-knocked-up-for-pregnancy

A lot of pakis like this guy
use Americanisms and don't even know it, to the point of getting angry when told it's an Americanism

...

4 World Cups = 4
1 World Cup + 2 World Wars = 3
4 > 3

That is what I meant paki.
Do you even follow your own language?

> 1 world cup

You wish

>we took it from the bongs
>here's a source that says it's of American origin
>that's what I meant

You've got what it takes to run for president mate

VAY-CAY-SHUN

Ah yes, paki doesn't understand his own link and doesn't understand his language.

shoo shoo paki

You should just scurry off like the other guy did after getting btfo, DeyShawn.

>A caution for britons visiting the United States

So you call it America or US, make a choice faggots

>'source' literally claims origins of the phrase pre-date the existence of the usa and originated in bongistan
>paki claims otherwise

Oh dear.

Quote it.

It says knock up was used in Britain in the context of the OP, not to impregnate, which is the point of contention. Try and avoid getting into discussions if you can't read, and try and avoid calling other people not white when there's a 44% chance you're not.

doesnt knock up mean to build something?

Why won't this paki read his own link?

>pear-shaped

It originates from the fact that lots of jokes used to mock the irish

>"TWO WORLD WARS! WE BEAT THE NAZIS!"
>literally hid behind the yanks both times

Nice try Great Shitain.

...

the british diction is so verbose that while most of these are legit, we have another 5 or so ways of saying each of these.

some of the ones ive never actually heard spoken (though they do exist, just are uncommon)

elevenses
knock up
strike out
sent to coventry
throw a wobbly

the others are pretty common, but we have even more ways of saying most of them

tldr step your wordplay up and stop being basic bitches

GREAT KEKISTAN BTFO

>live in America for a bit
>have to say talk like a Simple English Wikipedia page because otherwise they will take you literally

>have to say talk

whoops

>that's not bad
>that's poor
huh

Based Americanized Pakis

>arguing over knock up meaning pregnant when everyone says in pig for that anyway

UK English

"not bad" = understated good i.e. "that new Mercedes is not bad"

US English

not bad = could do better

filthy southerner

Where do they say that?

probably a londoner. london english should be abolished desu

Taking the Mickey is cockney rhyming slang.
>Taking the Mickey Bliss > piss

reported for non-sports

No need to throw a wobbly m8

southners pay northern monkeys gibs

it gets worse, many people here speak like they are black retards even when they arent

Same here tbf. Although only really in London

Italy master race:
4 World cup + 1 World War = 5

fuck u talmbout nigga?

You mean Brazil:
5 World Cups + 2 World Wars = 7

No. But Americans are.

>diction

you meant something else here friend

don't try to act smug when your English is subpar

Nobody says "being sent to Coventry", it's an antique expression.

no he didn't you cretin

CRETIN

I've heard 'to knock up' from poms meaning to go and visit someone ie knock on their door. Odd language you lot have.
