Girl uses с word

  • #1

Hello everyone

I’m asking just out of curiosity, do you think that a girl can use the words ‘dude, fella, and man while she talks to a guy?

I mean like ‘thank you dude‘ or ‘hi fella‘ or ‘oh man, you helped me out so much.

Do you think a girl can really talk like this?

All opinions welcome, thank you!

    • #2

    Sure, why not? Many girls and women do. Of course it is very informal and not used in certain contexts.

    • #3

    I don’t see why not.

    Girls can say whatever they like in most English-speaking countries.

    Girls (or boys) can indeed say anything they like. The problem is how a person accepts it.

    I strongly advise against such familiarity when applying for a job, talking to a professor, responding to the policeman who stopped you for speeding …. or, except for Rover ;), when talking to grumpy senior citizens such as myself.

    «Oh, man!» (as in your example) is a general exclamation like «Wow!», not a reference to the person that you are talking to.

    I use «dude» sometimes when speaking with my nephews. My girlfriend occasionally calls me «dude,» for that matter, but in general I don’t advise using it to apply to women.

    «Fella?» No. I don’t know anyone who uses that word.

    • #8

    I agree that girls may say whatever they wish, yet how it is received by listeners may be more problematic. In your cited examples, I’d say that those words have a flavor more appropriate to being said by one male to another male. My wife would not use those words, at least I have never heard her to do so, when addressing a man. I must say though that what she says and how she says what she does to her female friends is so intimate that I prefer to avoid hearing it. Women, it seems to me, are much less inhibited than are men in the subjects they discuss. The women probably are the wiser ones.

    Thank you all, of course I won’t use words such as those in formal situations or with people who don’t seem to accept this kind of language. One doesn’t need much to see who will and who won’t. :)
    I was just more curious about the using of it in everday life, nothing more :p

    ‘fella’, from girl to guy sounds like WWII vintage.

    • #11

    Well, in my humble opinion, it should be equally appropriate or inappropriate for both females and males. The gender discrimination is already part of history.
    I don’t advise to use those words in most of contexts. Only when you’re kidding with relatives or close friends, they are acceptable!
    Just my two cents!

    I’d never use ‘dude’ because it’s AE. I’d never use ‘fella’ because it’s not only AE but also antiquated. I don’t use ‘man’, which is now common in speech in BE (my son certainly uses it) because I don’t like it (said by a male

    or

    a female).

    That said I challenge anyone to tell a woman which words she can or can’t use.:D

    heypresto


    • #13

    ‘Fella’ is alive and well in the UK police, as an alternative to ‘sir’. ‘Calm down, fella, or you’re nicked!’ — that sort of thing.

    ‘Fella’ is alive and well in the UK police, as an alternative to ‘sir’. ‘Calm down, fella, or you’re nicked!’ — that sort of thing.

    Would a female police officer say that too (I’m just curious)?

    heypresto


    • #15

    Yes, I’m pretty sure she would.

    • #16

    I’m an elderly female who claims to be «educated»…well, it’s a process.

    I use «dude» now and again. It’s more of a family joke than unselfconscious usage. We talk about «the pizza dude», and now that we’ve found a reliable supplier of fresh fish who is willing to deliver to our home, «the fish dude»:D.

    Like our beloved Queen Elizabeth, I would never address a male person as dude, fella or man.:eek: I’m British, for heaven’s sake.

    All girls are different and are turned on by different things, so you will need to individualize the things you say to the girl you are saying them to; however, there are a few words of advice that can turn on almost any girl, provided that you’re already dating. Make sure you have a good amount of time to talk to the girl, as a slow, sexy pace will achieve much better results than a rushed one.

      Ask her a good question. Ask her something that will give her a chance to give a long answer, like «So tell me about what you did today,» or «What exciting things do you have planned for the weekend?» This will get her talking and will show her that you care.

      • Asking her a good question will show her that you’re interested in what she has to say.[1]
        Girls want to be sexy and interesting; for her, a good conversation is a way to set the tone.
      • If she answers with a short answer, pepper her with more questions, showing her you care and really want to know. You want to get her on a roll, talking about things she’s interested about, all while you’re doing a good job listening.
      • Be funny and playful, if you can. Girls love people with a sense of humor, along with people who know how to have fun.[2]
        If you’re making her laugh and keeping her on the tips of her toes, it’ll be easier to turn her on. Look up and practice some jokes you think she might like, or start developing your own inside jokes with her that you can lean on when you know you need a laugh.

      Keep complimenting her, when appropriate. If she asks you how your day was, let her know that you were thinking about her. Add a slight twist by complimenting her features. Don’t make it too smutty though; something like «I couldn’t stop thinking about you and your sexy smile» does the job.

      • Keep the conversation going by asking questions about her and showing interest in her answers. The way that you start turning her on is by dropping plenty of little compliments. Make sure you think of little things to say just about her to make her feel special.
      • Girls like it when you notice something about them that they also like. So if you know she likes the color of her eyes, compliment the color of her eyes («I love the way your eyes shine when you smile»). If she likes her hair, say something like «Your hair looks so smooth and comfortable, do you know how pretty it makes you look?»[3]
      • Start making the compliments slightly more sexy.[4]
        If she is saying things like «Stop!» or «You don’t mean that» while giggling, keep giving her the sexy compliments. You’re definitely on the right path.

      Start describing the not-too-scandalous things you want to do to her. Make sure that the things you are saying are sexy and romantic, not dirty and gross. Start with some ambiguous innuendos so you don’t come on too strong.[5]
      You need to build up anticipation first.

      • You will need to come up with your own suggestions, but an example might be: «If we were together, I’d run my fingers slowly through your hair while we kissed. I’d massage your back while I kissed your neck. I would lie next to you and trace my fingers over the soft curves of your beautiful body.» etc. Be creative. Using lots of imagery and imaginative words can also help.
      • Here are some other compliments that you can use: «I thought about you when I woke up today. Just like I thought about you when I went to sleep last night. You know what I was thinking about? I was thinking about us, together, curled up in bed. That makes me happy.»
      • Something else you might say: «You give me goosebumps. Every time you touch me I go crazy inside, because I know it’s only you who can do that to me. No one else does that. Even a smile from you is like a punch in the gut, but in a good way.»

      Try to use your words in person. When you are getting a girl turned on using words it’s important that she can hear your voice. It can be done over text, but your words will have a much better effect if the girl you are talking to can hear the sexy tones in your voice.

      • Try to use your deepest-sounding voice when you talk to your girl. Studies show that people with deep voices have more sexual partners and that girls are more attracted to people with deep voices.[6]
        Now, that doesn’t mean you should lower your voice if it sounds unnatural, because that won’t turn your girl on. But if you’re always in the higher pitched level of your voice, try to go down to the lower level when you’re talking with your girl.
    5. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 2

      5

      Set the mood. When you start talking to her, it’s important to set the mood for the entire conversation by saying things like «I can’t stop thinking about you,» or «I’ve been wanting to hear your voice all day.» This will help establish closeness, and let her know that you’re feeling intimate. Make sure you’re alone and in a comfortable, sexy environment; you may not want to turn her on in public.

      • Other things to say are: «I never knew it until I spent time away from you, but I missed you today,» or «You look stunning, as usual.» Keep it short and sweet; a very elaborate compliment might come off wrong or be misinterpreted by her.
      • Don’t compare her to other women. Even if what you’re saying is that she’s smarter, or prettier, or more fun to be around, avoid the comparison. She doesn’t even want you to compare her to other women, because she doesn’t want you to think about other women. She wants you to think about only her. If she thinks you may be thinking about other women, it’s a turn-off for her.
      • Have a fun, positive energy when you’re flirting with someone since it will make you more approachable and easy to talk to.[7]
    6. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 6

      6

      Make her feel special. In your own way, make her feel like the sexiest woman alive. Get her thinking sexy thoughts about you and it’s guaranteed that she won’t stop thinking about you when the conversation is over. This is the most important thing when it comes to turning your girl on; you don’t want her to feel like a piece of meat.

      • While you try to turn her on with your words, make sure you let her see that you wouldn’t talk to just any girl this way. Let her see how lucky you feel to be with her.

      Say that you want her. One of the most basic things you can say when you want to turn up the heat are these simple words: “I want you.” You can add other variations, but saying this makes the girl see how much you want to be physically close with her and may be enough to turn her on. Look her in the eyes and show that you’re not shy about saying what you want and need. Here are some other things you can say:

      • “I want you so bad right now.”
      • “I’ve been wanting you all day long.”
      • “I’ve never wanted you so badly in my life.”
      • “That dress you’re wearing makes me want you more than ever.”
    2. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 8

      2

      Say something nice about her body. As you move forward, you can compliment your girl’s body in a less-PG way. As long as you’re sure she’s playing along and that she would welcome compliments about parts of her body other than her face, you can start to take it up a notch by complimenting the parts of her body that turn you on. Just make sure you’re not offending her and that your comments are welcome. Here are some things you can say:

      • “Your chest looks amazing in that dress.”
      • “Your legs are incredible.”
      • “I love the way your hips are moving.”
    3. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 9

      3

      Say what you want to do to her. Now that you’ve described what you want to do to your girl’s body, you can go a step further and tell her what you’d like to do to her body. You can be a bit more graphic if you want, but in general, just say enough to have her imagine you having your hands all over her body, which should be more than enough to turn her on. Here are some things you can say:

      • “I want to run my hand down your thighs.”
      • “I can’t wait to kiss the nape of your neck.”
      • “I want to caress and kiss every part of your body.”
      • «I want to run my hands through your hair while I kiss you.»
    4. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 10

      Say what you want her to do to you. Now, as you continue to turn your girl on with your words, you can tell her what you wish she would do to you. This would paint a sexy image in her mind and will have her turned on in no time at all. Of course, make sure she has done many of these things before so you don’t surprise her or come off sounding too graphic or explicit. Here are some things you can say to her:

      • “I want you to take my shirt off.”
      • “I want you to kiss my chest and shoulders.”
      • “I want you to get on top of me and start kissing my neck.”
    5. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 11

      Describe how she makes your body feel. If you want to turn your girl on, then you should have no shame about telling her how turned on you are just by the sight of her. She’ll be turned on just by the idea that being around her is making you turned on. Here are some ways you can tell her how she makes you feel:

      • “I am so turned on just by being around you.”
      • “You make me so excited.”
      • “My whole body is tingling just from looking at you. You have no idea how good you make me feel.”
    6. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 12

      Reveal your fantasies. Another way to turn your girl on is to tell her some fantasies you have about being with her. They can be related to role-playing, can be about explicit things you’d like to do to her or would like her to do to you, or can be about a place where you’ve always wanted to hook up. Don’t be afraid to tell her what you’ve always dreamed about and see if you can make it come true together.

      • Let her reveal her fantasies, too. This can turn both of you on even more.
    7. Image titled Turn a Girl on With Words Step 13

      7

      Consider sending her a message later to keep her feeling sexy. Though turning your girl on with words is best done in person, you can leave her feeling sexy even after you’ve said your goodbyes by sending her a sexy text message later on in the day that shows her that you’re still thinking of her and her body. Keep it sweet and simple but also make sure there’s enough subtext to get her turned on and ready for your next encounter. Here are some things you can say:

      • “I can’t stop thinking about what happened last night. I can’t wait to see you again.”
      • “When I close my eyes, all I see is your gorgeous body.”
      • “I had such an amazing time with you last night. I can’t wait to have you in my arms again.”

    • Don’t make a pattern of this behavior. She will begin to notice that your flattery simply means you want sex, and it could ruin a relationship pretty easily.

    • Let her feel like she is wanted, and she is interested in you. If you find her being quiet start asking her romantic questions while maybe holding her hand, but be creative. Remember, perverted things could ruin a relationship.

    • Painful silences can be avoided by going slow and only increasing the heat when she is ready.

    This slang trend has been there since the 80’s. Teens are always known to invent their own code words and phrases that have today become slang and later added in urban dictionary. Some are abbreviations like LOL or YOLO whereas others are small phrases that have very different meanings like ‘eat my shorts’ or ‘kill me’. These practices are how the languages are revolutionized and progress.[Wiki source]

    Teens in each generation develop a unique language of their own. Over the years, parents have heard terms ranging from «outta sight» and «phat,» to things like «sick» and «gag me with a spoon.» Every decade has been marked by its special phrases that quickly grow outdated (and might just become «cheugy») to the teens of the future.

    But even while being a part of youth culture (and the slang that defines it) when you’re young, it can get harder and harder to keep up with the latest teen jargon by the time you’re the parent of one.

    Overview

    Trying to figure out what teens are saying is increasingly challenging, as the explosion of social media, memes, digital communication, and the ever-present-cellphone means teen-speak is evolving faster than ever. Once you think you’ve mastered a few phrases, you’re probably already out of touch again.

    Some of this slang enters the mainstream vernacular—and by that point, is no longer cool—or «sic.» But most of these words simply disappear as they lose favor with kids and are almost instantaneously replaced with new ones.

    So, as «with it» and up to speed as we adults think we may be, most of us could benefit from a primer on the latest teen slang. We cover it all below, from social media acronyms and text message shorthand to code words for drugs, friends, and parties.

    It’s important to educate yourself about common teen slang so that you understand what your teen is talking about—both online and in person.

    General

    Teen slang words may be confusing to those not in the know, but most are harmless and a part of a teen’s identity. Kids use these words to exert independence, sound cool, and/or to fit in with their peers. They seek to differentiate themselves from their parents and want to feel unique, free, and even revolutionary. Using slang helps teens do that while also bonding with friends.

    Below are some common teen slang words you might hear: 

    • AF — Stands for «as f**k,» used to emphasize a statement (i.e. «she’s cool AF»)
    • Cheugy — Something that is out of date or a person who is trying too hard
    • Dead — Something is so funny that the speaker has «died» of laughter
    • Dope — Cool or awesome
    • Extra — Over-the-top, extreme
    • Fit — Short for outfit
    • Fire — Hot, trendy, amazing, or on point (formerly «straight fire»)
    • GOAT — «Greatest of All Time»
    • Go Off — A phrase said to encourage someone to continue, usually when they’re ranting about something (can also be sarcastic, as in, «but go off, I guess»)
    • Gucci — Good, cool, or going well
    • Hits Different — Something that «hits different» is a lot better than normal
    • IYKYK — Stands for «if you know, you know»
    • Lit — Amazing, cool, or exciting
    • Low-Key — Added to a feeling or desire to downplay it (i.e. «I’m low-key freaking out»)
    • Mood — A word to signify agreement
    • OMG — An abbreviation for «Oh my gosh» or «Oh my God»
    • ONG — Basically the equivalent of «I swear to God»
    • Salty — Bitter, angry, agitated
    • Sic/Sick — Cool or sweet
    • Slay — To be extremely stylish or successful
    • Sleep On — To be ignorant to something or someone’s value (i.e. «Don’t sleep on the new Ariana single»)
    • Snatched — Looks good, perfect, or fashionable; the new «on fleek»
    • TBH — To be honest
    • Tea — Gossip, situation, story, or news
    • Thirsty — Trying to get attention
    • Yassify — To apply several beauty filters to a picture until the person is totally unrecognizable
    • Yeet — To throw something
    • YOLO — «You Only Live Once» (often used ironically)

    People or Relationships

    Relationships are an important aspect of adolescence. In the teen years, kids develop their own identities and explore who they are outside of their families. Interactions with their peers are a key component of this process—and they often create unique words to describe their friendships and romantic relationships.

    Here are some slang words your teen might use when talking about other people:

    • Bae — «Before anyone else,» babe, or baby; is used to describe a romantic partner or good friend
    • Basic — Boring, average, or unoriginal
    • BF/GF — Boyfriend or girlfriend (used when texting, not in conversation)
    • BFF — «Best friends forever»
    • Bruh — Bro or dude (all three terms are gender-neutral)
    • Cap — Fake or a lie
    • CEO — To be the «CEO of» something is to excel at it
    • Curve — To reject someone romantically (related to «ghosting»)
    • Emo — Someone who is emotional or a drama queen
    • Fam — Group of friends
    • Flex — To show off
    • Ghosted — To end a relationship by cutting off communication
    • A Karen — A disparaging way to describe a petty middle-aged woman, who is rude, especially to people who work in the service industry. (For example, saying, «What a Karen,» about someone who returns their drink at a restaurant for not having enough ice.)
    • No cap — Totally true or no lie
    • Noob/n00b — A person who doesn’t know what they’re doing or who is bad at something; in other words, a newbie
    • OK, Boomer — Usually said in response to a person or idea that seems outdated
    • Periodt — End of statement emphasizer. For example: “That’s the best ice cream, periodt.”
    • Ship — You might «ship» two people together, as in you think they should be a couple; derived from the word relationship
    • Shook — To be incredibly shocked or shaken up
    • Simp — Someone who does way too much for the person they like; to have a huge crush on someone
    • Spill the Tea — Asking someone to spill gossip
    • Squad  Group of friends that hang out together regularly, used ironically

    • Throw shade — To give someone a dirty look
    • Tight — In a close relationship or friendship
    • Tool — Someone who is stupid, obnoxious, rude, and/or embarrasses themselves, often a jock type

    Compound Slang

    Teens often create shortcuts by combining two words together. To understand what they mean, you need to know the definition of each word.

    Here are some examples of compound teen slang:

    • Crashy — Crazy and trashy, like a trainwreck
    • Crunk — Getting high and drunk at the same time, or crazy and drunk
    • Hangry — Hungry and angry
    • Requestion — Request and a question, or to question again
    • Tope — Tight and dope

    Parties, Drugs, and Sex

    Teens are prone to experiment and push boundaries—and also to talk a big game. So, sometimes the below words will simply be used in fun or boasting. However, sometimes they indicate risky (or potentially risky) behavior.

    For the most part, teen get-togethers are a fun rite of passage and aren’t automatically anything to be concerned about. However, parties (and related teen slang) can raise concerns over supervision, appropriate behavior, the use of illegal substances, alcohol, peer pressure, bullying, and unprotected sex.

    Whether or not your child is involved in any inappropriate or dangerous activities, you’ll want to know what they’re talking about and be attuned to any words that might indicate possible trouble.

    Below is a list of some social slang to be aware of:

    • 53X — Sex
    • Body count — The number of people someone has slept with
    • CU46 — See you for sex
    • Dayger — Party during the day
    • Function/Func — Party
    • Kick back — Small party
    • Molly — Ecstasy (MDMA), a dangerous party drug
    • Netflix and chill — Used as a front for inviting someone over to make out (or maybe more)
    • Plug — Someone who can hook you up with drugs
    • Rager — Big party
    • Smash — To have casual sex
    • Sloshed — To be drunk
    • The plug — Someone that supplies alcohol/drugs
    • Throw down — To throw a party
    • Turnt — To be high or drunk (formerly «turnt up»)
    • X — Ecstasy
    • WTTP — Want to trade photos?
    • LMIRL — Let’s meet in real life

    Resources

    Teen slang changes continuously. If you aren’t sure what a slang term means, the website Urban Dictionary can help. It’s dedicated to keeping up with today’s slang and is a resource that parents can use. Be warned, however, as it features user-submitted content that may be crude.

    Additionally, you can simply try asking your teen—or other teens you know—to translate slang you don’t understand. Bringing up these words with your teen may be awkward but might also provide a doorway to important conversations with your child.

    A Word From Verywell

    Aim to balance safety with privacy and independence for your teen. Talk with your teen about the concerns you have, your family rules and expectations, as well as safe and healthy social media usage.

    Teenagers need to be able to have private conversations with their friends. And clearly, you can’t monitor what your teen is doing or talking about all the time. Still, you may want to monitor your teen’s social media feeds at times, and pay attention when they’re chatting with their pals. If you see or hear conversations that worry you—or that you can’t decode—be ready to take action as needed.

    Origin of girl

    First recorded in 1250–1300; Middle English gurle, girle, gerle “child, young person”; compare Old English gyrela, gi(e)rela “item of dress, apparel” (presumably worn by the young in the late Old English period, and hence used as a metonym)

    usage note for girl

    Some adult women are offended if referred to as a girl, or informally, a gal. However, a group of adult female friends often refer to themselves as the girls, and their “girls night out” implies the company of adult females. Also, a woman may express camaraderie by addressing another woman as girl, as in You go, girl! or Attagirl!
    Referring to one’s female office assistant or housekeeper as the girl or my girl, once in common use, is now considered unacceptable. Working girl, meaning “a woman who works,” girl/gal Friday, meaning “a female office assistant,” and other occupational terms such as career girl and college girl, are also dated and often perceived as insulting. Working girl as a slang term meaning “a prostitute” is sometimes used by female prostitutes as a euphemistic self-reference. See also lady, woman.

    Words nearby girl

    MORE ABOUT GIRL

    Where does the word girl come from?

    The word girl, meaning “a female child,” originally meant any “child” or “young person,” regardless of gender. Girl, for “child,” is recorded around 1250–1300.

    However, the original source of the word is uncertain. Scholars point to Old English words like gyrela, “an item of dress, apparel,” presumably of a type worn by and popular with a young person back then.

    Guess what other word has obscure roots? Boy. Discover why in our slideshow “‘Dog,’ ‘Boy,’ And Other Words That We Don’t Know Where They Came From.”

    Did you know … ?

    While it is usually used to mean “female child,” the word girl is also sometimes used in reference to young adult or adult women, such as in girl bands or a girlfriend. Parents also use the word girls for their daughters of any age.

    While it is often used in a similar manner to its male counterpart boy, the word girl can have sexist implications that boy does not—although boy has its own racist past. For example, the idea of “a boy acting like a girl” is often used as a sexist or even anti-gay insult that doesn’t have an exact equivalent in “a girl acting like a boy.” The word tomboy, in fact, can often carry a positive connotation.

    Similarly, referring to adult women as girls can have demeaning or sexist implications that aren’t always as prevalent when using boy to refer to an adult man (e.g., “Boys will be boys”).

    That said, please note that referring to a Black adult man or other male members of minority groups as boy is racist.
