Bring us your expression

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

You are adding to Zip it. 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.

0:00
How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • I started explaining crypto down the pub and my mate goes, Zip it, you sound like a broken satnav. Barman just smirked and nicked my pint.
  • I started explaining the new crypto wallet to the lads down at the King's Head in Camden, and my mate Dave goes zip it Steve, you sound like a broken satnav on a bad data plan, the barman just smirked and reached for my pint to top it up at the same time.
  • The Year Six teacher in the village school in Hampshire has perfected the calm zip it gesture across the lips at full assembly, the whole hall goes quiet within four seconds flat, the head teacher steals the move regularly for the staff meeting, and the new student teacher has been practising on her cat at home in the evening.
  • Oi, zip it for a sec, I'm trying to hear what the driver just said and you're running your mouth like a dodgy podcast.
  • My sister kept spoiling the ending, so I hit her with a zip it and Mum gave me that don't-push-it stare from across the table.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
