Where in the world do they [the British] get "plates of meat" as slang for feet? We get that question a lot... It's called cockney rhyming and here's a guide to what it is and how you can do it.
What it is?
The origins of 'cockney rhyming' or 'cockney slang' is uncertain. It isn't a "dialect" or a "language". It might have started in market places so vendors could talk with out letting their customers understand. However, cockney rhyming slang is mostly spoken by the people of the East End of London, England; however, some expressions are used throughout the country. Like other slang, it is a type of communication that excludes 'them' from 'us'. It has pervaded many areas of British life.
How to do it?
Here is what it really boils down to. Let's consider the phrase "plates of meat". First, you come up with a word: feet. Then you find a word that rhymes with it, but has no connection to it: meat. Then you think up a phrase that you associate with meat: plates of meat. Sometimes it is shorten to just the first word in the new phrase: plates. That makes it even harder for 'outsiders' to figure out.
Some examples >>
apples and pears (or just apples) - stairs
dog and bone (or just dog) - phone
spetic tank (or just spetic) - yank (American)
teapot lids (or just teapots) - kids
trouble and strife (or just trouble) - wife
Now, that you've got the hang of it...create your own expressions.
