        A word used by Britons on any occasion, covering any meaning from thanks, hello, no problem, to an alien just raped your [chinchilla] in the left corner of my blue garden shed. Usually followed by the term mate, which is also 100% devoid of [semantic] content and meaning. This phenomenon is taken by some continental scholars as strong evidence that all Britons are [telepathic].
