London Slang -- Slag

Slag
n.

A woman (usually too young) who is not attractive but puts on lots of makeup and wears short skirts.

Editor's Note: Typically she speaks with a very heavy East End accent and says things like "Am I bovvered?"


Slag off
v.

When you are spreading bad rumours about someone, typically behind their back. This is something often done by a slag.

Editor's Note: Often people would accuse someone of this by saying "Are you slagging me off?" These are what is known in Texas as fightin' words.
