Words I Have Never Used
134 Answers
Just pondering what ‘modern’ words I never use, and never would.
1) Hi.
Hello, I’ll say, or good morning, good day, pleased to meet you, etc, but never “Hi”.
2) Poo (or Poop)
I might have used the word when I was in Primary School, but not since. I’ll use the ‘old’ terms, and if talking to a medic might say faeces or defecate, but never, ever Poo.
3) Wow.
No, I did use it once when the alternative might have needed asterisks, but it’s not part of my everyday speech.
4) Oh My God (or OMG, or Oh My Days, or any other soft non-religious euphemism).
Among friends, I might use some Anglo-Saxon term instead.
5) Awesome.
No further comment necessary.
I imagine you can add many to my list.

Yes, I guess it would have to be a chip butty as chip sandwich doesn't sound right. I`ve never tried one. I imagine it would just be stodge. I ate fish fingers for the first time in my life last summer (at a friend's house who couldn't be bothered to cook). I quite fancy trying fish finger sandwich (butty) just to see what it's like.
