What they say where you're from and isn't in the Slangtionary yet

You are adding to Go pear-shaped. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Say it out loud, 3 to 60 seconds. Reading it is not the same as hearing it.

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.
