Londoners say: There’s loads of room.
Londoners mean: I can almost breathe.
Londoners say: The rent is reasonable.
Londoners mean: I know the rent is absolutely outrageous but I can afford it, therefore it’s reasonable.

Londoners mean: The standard of living is so below par you could never live there.
Londoners say: Shopping on Oxford Street this Saturday? That’s brave.
Londoners mean: Shopping on Oxford Street this Saturday? You’re insane and I’d rather do crack.

Londoners mean: I’m not going there.
Londoners say: I have a studio.
Londoners mean: I basically have a bed in a cupboard in which I can sit.
Londoners say: Outside Zone 3?

Londoners mean: It’s not a tourist trap and they serve normal beer.
Londoners say: I’m on my way.
Londoners mean: I’m not on the Tube yet.

Londoners say: Tube.
Londoners mean: This is why I am an hour late.
Londoners say: How much is it?
Londoners mean: I may be able to afford it but I don’t think that is a reasonable price to pay, at all, for anything, ever.
Londoners say: Hipster.
Londoners mean: He wears tight trousers and has a beard.

Londoners say: I don’t go out in East London.
Londoners mean: Visiting the grey city makes me sad in my soul and as a Londoner I’m already quite sad enough in my soul – I hate East London.
Londoners say: I only go out in East London.
Londoners mean: I’m from East London and I’m too cool for anywhere else, especially West London – I hate West London.
Londoners say: Quickly.
Londoners mean: Right now.
Londoners say: Not bad.
Londoners mean: That’s awesome.
Londoners say: A quiet night.
Londoners mean: Two bottles of wine.
Londoners say: That place is over.

Londoners say: That’s London.
