ok so apparently it is talk like a pirate day but how do you talk like a pirate, What words do you use and what do they replace.

Hmm use "argh" a lot and say "matey" instead of friend and call people who you dont like "scoundrels" and tell them to "avast" instead of telling them to get lost? :S

friends = me hearties
Hey! = Avast!
I'm heading out = I be settin' sail
idiot = landlubber
yes = aye
any random noise such as umm, uhh, grr = arrrrgh
food = grog
the door = the hatch
left = port side
right = starboard side

just for starters

AM, you forgot the biggest pirate word!


Arrgh! = everything else

That's true, arrrgh is just kind of general purpose pirate speak. Mad? Sad? Happy? Arrrgh.

LOL never mind, I had alot of my terminology mixed up :$

O: you were right, for the most part. The only thing is that "avast" is like a way to call attention to something. like "Avast, we be comin' to land!"
