If you have ever watched a British TV show, heard British people talk, or even have gone over to England, it's pretty clear that even though both the English and Americans speak English, we actually speak two completely different versions. Shocking, I know.

Having lived in England and having a boyfriend who is English, I have come across some pretty odd words and phrases. When I first heard them I was like, "That is not a word, no way!" But believe me. It actually is. If you didn't know British slang before, well get ready because this list, though random, isn't taking the piss.

Welcome to the 12 Everyday British Slang Words Americans Probably Don't Know.

1. Alright?

"You Alright?" Believe it or not, they're not asking about your well-being. Nope, still nobody cares about how you are, it's more like a form of "what's up?"

2. Peng.

If you're peng, you're super attractive, like DAMN, go you!

3. Nelson Mandela's.

Not exactly this kinda Stella, we're actually talking Stella Artois. Stella...Mandela. It's cockney rhyming slang, but that's an explanation for another time.

4. Taking the piss.

If you're taking the piss, you're screwing around and most likely being wanker too.

5. Do.

If the dancing minion didn't give it away, it's a party! Everyone loves a good do.

6. Plaster.

Yes, band-aids are called "plaster," not as interesting, but definitely different.

7. Lorry.

So my boyfriend talked about the work lorry for weeks before I actually had to stop him and be like wtf is a lorry. Well, if you can't tell, it's a truck.

8. "Give you a bell."

Definitely one of the best ones that I've heard said, "I'll give you a bell" means I'll call you. By the looks of it, Conor's certainly waiting on one.

9. Chemist

The Chemist is the pharmacist. Kinda like how we have CVS, they have Boots. If you're sick you go to the Chemist's, or the Pharmacy.

10. Quid.

Money, money, money. A cool ass word for money.

11. Pants.

As Simon Pegg is obviously rocking, pants are underwear. Confusing, I know, but once you take off your trousers, you'll be in your pants. Think panties.

12. Yank.

Well, that's you, my friend. You're an American.
