You are adding to Ropey. 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
  • That second-hand telly looked ropey, and I’m feeling ropey this morning too. Two pints and a dodgy kebab, now I’m living at the loo.
  • The car ran fine but the brakes felt a bit ropey on the hills.
  • That pub looked a bit ropey from the outside, but the chips were decent so we risked it.
  • I'm not coming to five-a-side, mate. Feeling proper ropey after last night.
  • I was gonna eat the leftover prawn mayo, but it smelled a bit ropey so I binned it.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
