MUCH QUAINT BUT EXPRESSIVE SLANG
With the British Armies In the
Field, June 10. (By mall) Amorl-
cans think they are some Wis when
it comes to allnghtg slang, tint the
British Tommy Isn't so worse him
self when heists his bean to work
ing along slangologtoal lines.
What Is patter than "Bmma-Qse"
for a machine gun, tor Instance? Or
"O-Pip" for as observation post?
On must admit that there's some
class to these terms and while you-ve
got your gogglers on this column
just take it from me that there's
more pep of the same mustard y stan
dard where this came from.
A "whUe-baag" la a shell ot such
high velocity that Us whlas and Us
bang are almost simultaneous. A
"dud" Is a shell which falls to ex
plode. A bun handout is a "dud"
meal and a gink with a bone head
Is a "dud" bo. The tip you got on
the fitly that was backed off the
boards by the other nags on tbe
back stretch, was a "dud" smoke.
A trench mortar Is a "Joe-Emma"
and the tbig black ball at high ex
plosive the Germans rwply with Is
a "plum pudding." An antiaircraft
gun is an "Archibald" or an "Ar
chie." while the German shell which
bursts with a fussy yellow puff of
smoke Is a "wooly bear."
To the English Tommy a German
Is a "Frits" and Frits" he is to the
Canadians. The Scotch call him an
"Allyman" (probably after the
French "Allemand"), but he is no
body of the Irish but a . "Jerry."
A British staff officer Is a "brass
hat' perhaps tocause of the gold
braid on his cap, and Tommy's own
headgear, the steel helmet he must
wear inside the shell area, is a "tin
hst."
Another name given the stsff of
ficers Is the "lilies' supposedly on
the theory that they toll not.
"Blighty" Is England, and "going
to IMIghty" you can Just 4iet your
last specimen of spondulix, Is a "lit
tle bit or all right." A "Blighty"
Is a small wound which rovslld you
home. A serious wound Is not a
'Wlghty" for the very simple res
son that It puts a crimp in your
traveling capacity snd gives you bil
lets In a front sick-bay. If the
wound Is 'very bad, so bad that stim
ulants are necessary before you are
operated, you will go to "Resurrec
tion Ward."
"Ach-Kmma" Is morning. "Plp
Kmma" Is afternoon. And night Is
not Infrequently called "Sawer"
which Is one way to pronounce the
French word "solr.v When a thing
Is all gone It's "no-poo" another
assault and battery, with mayhem,
on the Frencais.
A group of mobile batteries, which
turns raatle-daisle on Frits or Jerry
or Allyman, first at one part ot the
line then at another Is called a
traveling circus." A battle, a raid,
or any operation against the enemy
of a similar nature. Is a "show." A
"dud show" means that the stunt did
not "come-off" In . plain English
the attackers pulled a lemon.
When Tommy says "Frits got his
wind up" he means he suffered n
sttsrk of frspped pedal extremities.
The guns of largest caliber are
"Grandpas." The next largest are
"Grandmas," Of course "Daddy" Is
next and . "Mother" next and
"I'ncle." "Aunty" and the "kids" fol
low lowt the scale plum to "baby."
The kids have all sorts of names:
Willie. Harry. Sally. Polly, Mamie,
Little Lit, snd such, just as the gun
ners fancy happened to strike.
