I give Adam a lot of crap at work because he is British. Mostly I make fun of his accent. I enjoy it. Anyway, my favorite British-ism is to say, “Shine your shoes govna” in my best/worst British accent. Well, tonight while I was reading in The Chronicles of Narnia, one of the characters used the term ‘guv’ner’. This is proof that the Brits really use this word and I don’t feel bad for making fun of him now.
