@@mattybrunolucaszeneresalas9072 and hundreds of people put this on every video do you go round and find the first person to ever put this and say that to the thousands of people who put it after them

Meee
I love Christina more every day. She’s so funny and confident.
No, it's because she's nice and genuine.
if you want to say confident, I think others are more confident!! But Christina is being humble and knowledgeable and so down to earth, which make her so lovely
@@egemix894 and dirty minded too 😂 "boom boom" 😏

👌👌👌
Christina was waaaay too good at guessing 🇬🇧 slang this time! I was so impressed 👏🏻
Which part of England does Lauren come from? I feel like she's Lancashire isn't she? 🤔
@@jaturanondhubsombatt2281 think she said she was from liverpool
Most of it was used in the US first, back in the 50s, 60s and 70s
that advert at the beginning was smooth as hell 😂
Hi
🤣🤣🤣 guessing slang is so much fun even when I fail haha Thanks Lauren for teaching me some new slang !
Shame ‘the dogs bollocks’ didn’t come up would of loved to see the guess.
As French I dont get any of these slang 😂. Bang Bang would be more appropriate
boom boom LOL
Boom boom everything
I would be your ting haha ! 😉
I love Lauren and Christina together! They’re so much fun to watch. However, if I ever do see Lauren looking at her phone, I will remember NOT to ask her what app she’s using.
you don't even have to ask :D
Lauren was so unimpressed when Christina said she loved Harry Potter, she was like “that explains a lot” LOL
Sad for her lol
Yeah Harry Potter is kinda lame.
I'm always impressed when I see people know the names of spells, potions and creatures from Harry Potter, I'm always like.. how can you remember all of these things!!
Lauren read that ad like a book report. That’s how I’d be too. It’s hard for me to fake enthusiasm. Boom boom! (Just going to randomly say that now)
yeah she definitily was reading, but most people "fake" the enthusiasm when read.
I am so sorry not fake nothing look forward allowed. I live in UK 🇬🇧 here
Next video : Christina trying to speak with the British accent 🇬🇧 and Lauren with the 🔨
@ilovecats but failing in the attempt is part of the fun, Lauren was almost too good at the American accent
I love the one with Christina and Lauren so much. They have great screen chemistry.
7:45 "Da ting goes *CardiB trill*" had me rolling. That was hilarious.
Anyone else notice that when these two get together half the video is giggling.😄😄
The acting at the start 😂😂😂 Lauren looked so uncomfortable 😂
"Boom boom!"
"What's on your mind today?" xD
Adam and Eve it sounds much more like "I don't believe it"
And that's actually what it means.
4:12 Christina: “ Or you’re like Boom Boom.”
I will remember this for many videos to come 🤣
What does that mean actually?
@@yusufcoskun6300 I think it's make love
Christina is probably the sweetest person i have seen on internet
Christina will me mine. Elle sera à moi
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 no it’s mine
SHE LITERALLY IS

@@fasha7747 ahhh. Once a wise man said 'sharing is caring'. 😂😂😂
We definitely say "rank" and "bonkers" in the US but not often. It's like silly slang to use with friends. Also "blokes" and "blimey" are words we know of but don't use. We hear it when we watch shows with Brits in them. Or when we watch BBC America and such. That's how a lot of Americans know British words/slang. But also, a lot of the words in these videos are words that we also use in the states but Christina just may not have heard of them because of where she's from (or she just hasn't heard them much in general). - a native Floridian
Ting....Chirpsing???? I'm from England and I was as baffled as Christina!
"Boom-boom" is hilarious!:)))
Their interactions are so lovely and catchy that is always fun!
"Ting", "chirpsing" aren't British words but Jamaican imports. Vast majority of indigenous Brits don't use them.
Chirpsing is SO not Jamaican my yute
If you say chirpsing in Jamaica it came from Britain.
We use ting in Canada too, Toronto has a huge carribean population.
Depends on where you live in the country really
I mean ting is roadman slang or well as they call it "the new Cockney accent"
good video..these two have good chemistry when their together.....good job
This channel is so fun to watch
Christina and Lauren are the best. I love their interaction.
1:10 JAJAJAJA I laugh so much with this part.
loco yo igual, escupí mi comida jaja
Jajaja siii XD
I've definitely heard "bonkers" before. I think that one might have crossed the ocean.
I love these two
I love these two 🤣
Lauren carriers this whole channel
Everyone loves her
7:10 I was hoping Christina would mention Harry Potter... because, come on, she is right. It is in Harry Potter. When I saw the white card with "Blimey" written on it, I said it exactly like Ron used to.
Same haha 😂
Lauren as usual, you look gorgeous 😍
“Barney” is also quite common in Australia. Mostly from the older generation. I definitely use “rank” as well.
I say both "bonkers" and "rank" and I've heard it quite a bit. I live in the USA and have never been outside the USA.
They are young, and naive 😂
Its like "okay i watched Harry potter, i know litteraly all of them". I guess Ron did a good Job lol
lmao I lost it at the girl cursing in Spanish1:12 - that is way too Argentinian😂
We use bonkers and rank in the US. Blimey and bloke we know from TV and movies. As for the rest of that UK slang, what the hell?? 🤣 Hilarious fun. Thanks.
Have never heard "chirpsing" or "ting" in Britain.
FYI: the full version of "Barney" would be "Barney Rubble". Cockney rhyming slang was all about having a rhyming phrase but omitting the second part in usage. That way the meaning is secret from people that don't know the slang (secret language).
7:23 Still doing that...
Love your videos😍
I love how the US person's hand is like⬆️↗️➡️↙️↘️↖️⬇️↖️↗️🔄↩⤴️ and the UK girl is just leaving her hands at rest
UK girl does many hand movements in other videos 😂
Christina do the ting go skrr reference just pure cuteness, normally it wold be cringe.
I’m gonna fall in love with lauren smile 😊 🥰🖤🖤🖤
As an old American bloke, several of these were pretty popular in movies mid-20th century. It’s still fun to hear a different take on them.
So funny..love it
Bonkers and rank mean the same thing in the US. Ting I usually hear from Caribbean people. I occasionally use bloke but only with the word dumb in front of it. I watched an UK show on Netflix and they said innut like a million times.
Being American, but enjoying British TV and movies, I correctly guessed the same ones that Christina did, and missed the same ones. Fun show.
it's ok. chirpsing is street slang from 2009 that i swear people don't even say anymore and i've never heard barney before despite living here my whole life
@@FadeToBlack888 I’ve never heard of chirpsing but I have heard of barney being used for an argument.
"Blimey!" is short for "Cor blimey!" which is a corruption of "God blind me!" expressing surprise over seeing something you can't believe. "Cor!" used to be used by itself to express surprise.
"Y de la reput@ madre que los repario a todos" 😂
I love them. 🇦🇷
loved this! very funny and interesting
literally had no idea of the meaning of most of those, probs the only one i knew was 'bloke' lol
Do you know what “butters” means? lol
With the exception of the cockney rhymes, and maybe another word... those are used in Canada... probably not as often as in UK, but used.
As always fun to watch these 2 interact... though where Christina's mind went on some of them was another level.
I appreciate every time, I learn and laugh. Christina looks like Jodie Foster and Lauren looks like Cameron Diaz.
Jodie fosters better looking sister/daughter 😅
I love to lern more languages! Interesting.
Bloke, fella lol
there is a song called Bonkers(a party song)
Woow a lot of new words!
Pete & Bas could teach you some new words 😂
There was an American cartoon in the 90's called Bonkers and he was a crazy detective
I love Christina an Lauren both. They're really pretty I like them very much. It also helps me to learn English by listening them.
They're my fav omg
I don't Adam and Eve how good this video was :)
Whenever I see these two in the thumbnail , I get attracted 😉😉
These two are my favourite pair !!
1:14 that's soooo Argentina... LOL!
they need to do more london slang
Innit 😂
I wish I was british
Am i now in Love with Lauren from the UK?
Christina n Lauren was a funny duo🤣🤣🤣
Christina is my favorite. She is so beautiful!
Lauren is cute too, I like her accent.
I would cheer for American, because I graduated from America 🇺🇸🙏🇹🇭🙏
I would cheer for America too, because Christina is hot ☺️
As you may know there is a British pop band called The Ting Tings they were the ones behind that song “That’s Not My Name”
The best pair..😍
Love the video. Bye the way ,blimey is short for blind me. Which I think is short for something else, languages evolve.
hahaha they are very funny together
went they was talking about the app, the movie of the girl say a bad word in spanish
Bonkers is a common word in the US. I remember it in old movies
Cool video, we have some strange slang
Rank has to be an older slang term. My mom has been using that for years and she’s from Baltimore lol. Bonkers is a term I’ve heard older ppl in the use too
I have occasionally heard "bonkers" and "rank,' meaning putrid or foul-smelling, in this country. Although Cab Calloway sang, "she messed around with a bloke named Smokey" in his hit song "Minnie the Moocher," I have never heard any other Americans use the word 'bloke."
Bonkers mean crazy in the US too lol And people in the US say rank all the time and it means the same thing (although I'v heard people in the UK also say "I rank that" and it means something else!)
I find myself using Blimey a lot these days. I think I got it from watching too many episodes of old late 1970’s British tv show Mind Your Language on CZcams!
maybe you can bring to the show mexican for example and spanish to see difference in their languages as well
6:11 rank is really common in the US where I'm from.
Hahaha I thought the same the moment "Blimey" appeard on screen!
according to the movie ocean's eleven, barney is probably barney rubble, rhymes with trouble
I'm British and have never heard of chirpsing! I do wonder what part of the uk use it?!
I first heard the word "bloke" in Crocodile Dundee :-)
Nice videos 💝👌👌👌👌
that bm london view reference
Not that there’s anything wrong with it but I feel when you say British slang what you mean to say is London slang. A lot of these seemed London centric or southern. Have to admit never heard of chirpsing before, new one on me!
Are you from the UK
@@AC_RDR2_Q I am indeed
@@jonharper8963 me too :)
Rank is also cockney rhyming slang.
"Rank and File = Vile"
Cockney rhyming slang is one the best things is English!
Honestly, I enjoy so much what meaning can have some random words😂😂😂
Bees and honey
Apples and pears
Bottle and stopper
Rats and mice
Loop the loop
Fisherman’s daughter
Bob’s your uncle
🤩🤩🤩
You are having a bubble bath! 🤣🤣
Since I firstly watched this, I've got such a crush on this Christine
Although "bonkers" initially was a word exclusively found in British English, the slang, with help from pop culture, crept its way into American English and is common in the US today.
Bloke is in the lyrics to Chim Chim Cher-ee.
I don't know who compiled this list, but a few mistakes, like "Barney". It's "Barmy".
And "Ting", "chirpsing" are rarely used. Maybe very local to some migrant communities in London.
Most Brits would say "Bird" and "chatting up" instead.
Two different words - "Barmy" means mad in a sort of fun way, such as England cricket fans aka the "Barmy Army". A "Barney" refers to a bit of trouble (fisticuffs or a heated argument), from rhyming slang "Barney Rubble".
I believe the American equivalent to chirpsing is to “Holler (holla) at a girl” but this may be Jersey/NY slang
Must be. Never heard that. In California we'd say "chat up" or "chatting up" a girl.
We say Holla too, I’m from Alabama
Bonkers isn't unique to Britain. It's used in the US too, just maybe not as often. Same with rank. Americans definitely use it.
Christina needs to be in a movie or TV show. Obviously, she's pretty, but she really has the look and feel for the screen. She's due to be discovered. For that matter, I think Lauren, personality wise and her kind, natural demeanor and lovely eyes also works. These two work well together and have good chemistry in these short CZcams videos, so yeh, it'd be cool to see them in a full length film or mainstream TV production.
For those interested the reason, Barney is also cockney rhyming slang is because the original term is Barney Rubble = trouble. Hence barney
In the 1990s, we Americans had an animated TV show called "Bonkers" which was about a very cartoony bobcat cop doing cop things with a human in Toon Town from Who Framed Roger Rabbit. I was only, like, 9, when it came out, but even then I knew that "bonkers" was a term for crazy, so the term has made its way into America a bit.
Yes, I loved Bonkers!
In US : Pants , underwear
In UK : Trousers , underpants
In Australia : Pants , undies
In France : Pantalon
Ting originally came from her Caribbean dialects. They drop the th in thing and pronounce is a ting. It became slang
We stole from British Caribbeans 😅
I'm part British and familiar with some Brit slang but some of these I've never heard of lol - I guess it depends on the area you're from?
Hi Rayna
lauren sounds like a robot doing that ad lol
2:07 If you want to bypass the 2-minute commercial, just hit the time stamp. You’re welcome.
Its the boom boom 🤣🤣
I havnt watched the video yet but I really want to see the Irish slang ‘what’s the craic?’ (Last word is pronounced crack and it means what’s the news or gossip or anything exciting going on in this term is is used ridiculously often)
🤣🤣🤣
Love british accent 🥰🥰
Which one? There’s plenty
Not all of them 😂
