IF YOU'RE BRITISH ANSWER THIS!?

A "chap" is a slang word for a man. You could probably also say "bloke".

"Are you taking the mickey?" = "Are you making fun of me?", "Are you taking a rise out of me?"

A kipper is a herring that is split open and smoked, or "cured". Kippers are delicious! They are sometimes used in kedgeree, a dish of rice, boiled egg and smoked fish. They are often eaten for breakfast, and are particularly popular in Scotland.

Treacle tart has a short pastry base topped with golden treacle, which is I think the equivalent of molasses.

A "plait" is when hair is divided into three separate and equal sections and woven -- left strand over the centre one, then right strand over -- the equivalent might be "braid".

I think Nandos is a chain of restaurants.

"Bob's your uncle" is an idiom meaning "Everything is fine now" -- e.g. "You unscrew those two screws, take away the panel and Bob's your uncle".

"Knickers" are lady's panties.

"Dungarees" I think are called biballs in the US. Denim jeans with an attached bib?

A Babygro is an all-in-one towelling or cotton suit for a baby.

"Tea" can mean either the afternoon tea variety taken at around 4 o'clock, or it can mean the evening meal. There are regional variations as to what the evening meal is called in Britain. It can be "dinner", "tea", or "supper".

"Pudding" is the only correct word for a dessert at the end of a meal. Treacle tart would be eaten for pudding.

"Budge up there" means "move along", or "shuffle along", or "move up, give me some room".

A "duffer" is a foolish person.

No, toilet means the actual toilet, it doesn't mean the room. You could say "I'm going to the lavatory", or "I'm going to the loo" instead.

I think we find Americans reasonably intelligible. I read a lot of Stephen King so I've picked up a lot of vocabulary! Sometimes words like "sedan car" or the above "biballs" aren't clear on first reading, but it comes.

I hope that helps! Glad you're a Harry Potter fan!

Right down may alley. I am an expert on Brit culture....

What does "chap" mean? -- The piece of skin that falls off of a very dry lip.

What does it mean when someone says "Are you taking the mickey?" (i got this one from Harry Potter) -- It's a way that boys ask girls if they are on birth control pills. It came about because the child dosages were shaped like the famous Mickey Donagel a 12 year old who fought Nazis in WWII.

What type of food is a kipper? -- A female policeman.

What type of food is a treacle tart? -- A yummy treat on Treacle street. But be sure to get immunized first.

What exactly are nandos? -- Gnat testicles.

What does "Bob's your uncle" mean? -- It refers to any topic that no one wants to talk directly about, but is kind of an "elephant in the room". Has the implication that Uncle Bob is gay. (This was before being openly gay was OK.)

What exactly are "knickers"? -- Dull razors

What are "dugarees?" -- Jeans or canvas pants

What is a "Babygro?" -- An infant food sold during the 40s that was thought to be better for babies than breast milk. Unfortunately the side effect was that...well...let me just say that Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were both fed Babygro.

What exactly does it mean "It's time for tea!" (Does it mean like dinner or like actully drinking tea time?" -- "Tea" is an afternoon snack time, where tea is severed. The equivalent pre-noon snack time is "Elevenses".

When you say "pudding" does it mean the food or like a dessert? -- It means pudding. You all have corrupted to refer to some ultra-smooth dessert.

What does it mean when Hagrid syas "Budge up there you great lump." and "Well, some say Hufflepuff's are alot 'o duffers" -- He is discussing the proper adjustment of the male genitalia.

When you say "toilet" i know you mean bathroom so what do you call the actual toilet? -- You misunderstand. Toilet is not the name of the room. It is a sign indicating where the toilets are located. The name of the room is the "loo"

Can you sometimes not understand what Americans are saying? -- We can never understand what Americans are saying.

Never been to the UK, haven't talked to many Brittons, but I'm surprised that more people don't understand these words, most of these are pretty common, I wouldn't ever say nickers, but I know what they are.

Chap: fellow, guy

Are you taking the mickey: You screwin wit me?

Kipper: it's a fish

Treacle tart: traditional English dessert, admittedly, not as common knowledge in the U.S.

She had a long plait down her back, should more or less answer your question, it's a hair braid

Nandos: Got me with that one, had to look it up, looks like a restaurant chain.

Bob's your uncle: You're all set!

Knickers: underwear

Dungarees not dugarees: jeans or overalls

Babygro: another one that got me: a onesie if I'm spelling that right

It's time for tea!: Eatin time! (have you heard about "high tea" basically you eat while drinking tea)

Pudding: not as we think of it, originally pudding could be a meal as well as a dessert, like blood pudding or christmas pudding

Budge up there you great lump: Move over (as in they're taking up too much space, and you need to sit down). lump is in reference to a friend

Well, some say Hufflepuff's are a lot o' duffers: Well, some say Hufflepuffs are useless.

Toilet: just like the U.S. (Hold on, gotta go to the toilet.)
