Talk Like a Pirate Day Vocab-- Part 3: Ye Lubber!!!

Here are some advanced words to use:

BEAUTY: The best possible address for a woman. Always preceded with the word "me" as in 'C'mere, me beauty."

BILGE RAT: The bilge is the lowest level of a ship. It's loaded with ballast and very slimy, reeking water. A bilge rat, then, is a rat that lives in the worst place on a ship. Often used as an insult. So if a pirate calls you a bilge rat you should take offense if he means it.

LUBBER: Or land lubber. This is a seaman's version of a land lover. A lubber is someone who does not go to sea and stays on land. Also, consider it a bit of an insult if you get called this.

SMARTLY: Do something quickly.
