Bring us your expression

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

You are adding to Turn up. 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 finally turned up at half ten, soaked through, clutching chips. Dave goes, you taking the mick? She goes, relax, I brought cake.
  • The plumber finally turned up at half past four on Wednesday, three hours after the original appointment, with a bag of pastries from the bakery down the road and an apology speech that lasted longer than the actual boiler repair did in the kitchen.
  • A turn-up for the books at the village hall on Saturday, the home team won the quiz for the first time in nine years, the regular winners from the neighbouring parish were left muttering about luck and bad questions all the way to the carpark exit.
  • He said he'd be there for eight and turned up near midnight with a chicken shop bag and the world's flimsiest excuse.
  • Mad turn-up for the books, innit. Everyone thought Zara had flopped the exam and she came back with the top mark in the year.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
