Learn To Talk Speak Like a Pirate

Posted on September 1, 2010 at 2:54 PM

Pirate Lifestyle TV ™ Quickie 015

  

I be here in me ship with a special addition quickie.

Pirate Lifestyle TV is about you changing your reality and most importantly it is about havin' FUN.

  

Talk like a pirate day is Sept 19th so I think we should all learn some pirate lingo.

  

Why? Talkin' like a pirate be fun! Arrr.

Number 1 - The basics, a few important words

 

Ahoy! - Hello.

Avast! - Stop, pay attention.

One Aye, as in Aye! - Yes, I agree.

Two Aye's, as in Aye aye! - I understand and I'll get right on that.

Grog: A pirate's favorite drink, any alcohol other than beer.

Landlubber: someone not used to life onboard a ship.

Beauty, Lass, or Wench: A woman.

And the most important, Arrr! No explanation needed.

 

Number 2 -- Simple Guidelines

  

Always speak in the present tense.

Drop your g's and v's when you speak: sailin', invitin', lootin', plunderin'.

Instead of saying "I am" or "You are," pirates say, "I be" or "You be."

Double up on your adjectives. Don't call it a boat, it's a great grand galleon.

Also exaggerate. Stand back ye buxom beauty, yer raisin' me Jolly Roger.

 

And there is more good, as in FUNNY, stuff in the video.

   

Arrrrr.

Hey Captain Rob,
I have loved talk like a pirate day for years. Thanks for the glossary. I will be one more step on my way to being a pirate lifestyle guy. I have been homeless for the past couple of years but thanks to you and my trusty lap top I am about to go for it. I even started blogging again at my blog site www.homelessnot helpless.blogspot.com in order to get practice for marketing my new lifestyle. ARRGH
