Now ye registered, mayb ye wans't te brush up un ye Pirate talk eh?

(You know you need to!!!)

Arrr, so ye be wantin' t' go to sea an' ye don't be wantin' t' end up in Davy Jones' Locker. Then ye best be learnin' t' be talkin' like a buccaneer:

Remember these simple phrases and you'll do just fine!

  • Ahoy! - Hi!
  • Avast! - Stop and give attention. It can be used in a sense of surprise, Whoa! Get a load of that!Check it out or No way! or Get off!
  • Aye! - Why yes, I agree most heartily with everything you just said or did. 
  • Aye aye! - I'll get right on that sir, as soon as my break is over. 
  • Arrr! - This one is often confused with arrrgh, which is of course the sound you make when you sit on a belaying pin. Arrr! can mean, variously, yes, I agree, I'm happy, I'm enjoying this beer, My team is going to win it all, I saw that television show, it sucked! and That was a clever remark you or I just made. And those are just a few of the myriad possibilities of Arrr!
  • Once you've mastered the basics, you're ready to start expanding your pirate vocabulary. Try these for starters:
  • Beauty ? The best possible pirate address for a woman. Always preceded by 'me,' as in, 'C?mere, me beauty,' or even, 'me buxom beauty,' to one particularly well endowed. You'll be surprised how effective this is.
  • Bilge rat ? The bilge is the lowest level of the ship. It's loaded with ballast and slimy, reeking water. A bilge rat, then, is a rat that lives in the worst place on the ship. A lot of guy humor involves insulting your buddies to prove your friendship. It's important that everyone understands you are smarter, more powerful and much luckier with the wenches than they are. Since bilge rat is a pretty dirty thing to call someone, by all means use it on your friends.
  • Bung hole 'Victuals on a ship were stored in wooden casks. The stopper in the barrel is called the bung, and the hole is called the bung hole. That's all. It sounds a lot worse, doesn't it? When dinner is served you'll make quite an impression when you say, 'Well, me hearties, let's see what crawled out of the bung hole.'' That statement will be instantly followed by the sound of people putting down their utensils and pushing themselves away from the table. Great! More for you!
  • Grog 'An alcoholic drink, usually rum diluted with water, but in this context you could use it to refer to any alcoholic beverage other than beer, and we aren't prepared to be picky about that, either. Call your beer grog if you want. We won't stop you! Water aboard ship was stored for long periods in slimy wooden barrels, so you can see why rum was added to each sailor's water ration' to kill the rancid taste. Drink up, me hearties! And call whatever you're drinking grog if you want to. If some prissy pedant purses his lips and protests the word grog can only be used if drinking rum and water, not the Singapore Sling you're holding, keelhaul him!
  • Lubber (or land lubber) - This is the seaman's version of land lover, mangled by typical pirate disregard for elocution. A lubber is someone who does not go to sea, who stays on the land. More likely than not, you are a lubber 364 days of the year. But not if you're talking like a pirate! Then the word lubber becomes one of the more fierce weapons in your arsenal of piratical lingo. In a room where everyone is talking like pirates, lubber is ALWAYS an insult.
