UK English to American English

I here it too much in the UK movies or TV and dont know what they mean: I only ask becasue I watched some of those Misfits shows.  f***in' hilarious too. The dude with no powers, the curly hair dude, is a f***in riot.

But what do the below words, mean?

CHAV
YOB
WIND UP
ROW


And if their are any American slang,terms or whatever I'lll answer it.

A CHAV is someone a bit common. Sports trackies, tacky gold jewellry, someone you wouldn't really wnat to talk to. Think Chelsea/West Ham fans.

A YOB is someone who is a bit of a lout, gets pissed, shouts a lot and causes a general ruckus.

A WIND UP is when you pull a prank on someone or have a joke at someone's expense.

And a ROW is an argument.

So a Chav is a stupid, no job, white kid who pretends to be a "Gang Banger" wears track tops, huge jeans that hang below his waist and lots of shitty, fake gold necklaces. Baseball cap sideways. Talks like hes from the "Hood". Maybe robs and mugs old women. Just a straight up scumbag.?

Here in the US thats "White Trash", trailer park trash.

Pissed.
Usa...angry
UK...angry and drunk!

Yob, wind up & row, are also very commonly used in Aussie land too. Chav is one I had to learn here to though F**k me I hear some words and phrases in Yankee land I dint underestand sometimes, too
pissed to remember any right now though!

The one that always tickles me is Americans calling an arse a fanny.

Could cause all sorts of diplomatic incidents that one.

Why do you say that?

A fanny here is a womans special place, you know where you stick ya dick in.

An arse here is a bottom/backside somewhere else you can stick your dick in, that is if its a special anniversary/you hit the wrong hole or your missus is as pissed as a fart.

Got family in Boston and we went over there and we're on some beach in Mass. the sister in laws father who is American said to my daughter about going swimming and getting her fanny wet. that was a while ago we've been over since and got used to the different meanings, but that first time we were really embarrassed and thought maybe her arl fella had selective dementure.
