There was this video on YouTube about how to speak posh. I thought it was very funny, so I'm going to share it here with you guys.
Firstly, to speak posh, you've got to straighten your back, grind your teeth together, cross your eyes and be very tense. Don't you think Prince Charles speaks poshly?
I'm kidding.
Normal people say "hello" or "hi", but it's different for posh people. You know what that substance around you and I is? We can't see it but we breathe it in? Yeah, air. So, remember "air".
Next, remember "hair". The hair I've got tied into a ponytail and the stuff you have on your head or chin. What? Oh, I'm sorry, you haven't got that much left on your head already, since you're probably pulling your hair out at my "spiffingly" awesome humor.
Where do foxes probably live in? "Lair". Posh people like to chase foxes all over the countryside on their horses.
Say the three words together now, "air-hair-lair". Again, this time faster. Well done, mate, you've got yourself speaking poshly. Well, "air-hair-lair"!!!
As you can probably guess, that's "Oh hello!" in posh language.
That was a lame attempt at humor. We don't speak like that, unless they're, well...
