Bring us your expression

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

You are adding to Gobby. 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.

How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • She’s so gobby, mate. We’re in the chippy and she’s telling the bloke how to do his job, like she owns the fryer.
  • My cousin from Leeds is proper gobby at every family wedding, corners the new in-laws on the second cocktail to explain how mortgages really work in the north of England, and her husband stands by the buffet table eating sausage rolls with the patient look of a saint.
  • The new barman at the Crown and Anchor in Bristol is a bit gobby for my taste, comments on every order with unsolicited opinions about beer styles, the regulars have started ordering by pointing at the pump rather than speaking, and the manager has had three quiet words this week alone.
  • Don’t get gobby with the waitress, mate. She only asked what you wanted, not for your life story and a lecture on chips.
  • He’s a bit gobby after two pints, starts chatting like he runs the place, then goes dead quiet when someone finally bites back.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
