Any brits here? Got a quick question for y'all...

[qubertisonpoint]

I've seen on Gordon Ramsay's shows that he cursed A LOT!

However, i've heard him multiple times pronouncing the word "Fucking" in a different manner. He sort of adds some vowel after that, so it sounds like something along "Fucking ow" or something like that

BTW, not just him, lots of other brits say it like that (On TV shows mostly), and I wonder whether it's a legit phrase for you'se guys? If so, how exactly do you'se pronounce it? How do you'se write it?

Cheers

It's probably Fucking 'ell - https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Fucking%20%27ell

Show me a video and I can tell you.

Can confirm @Sephrata is right.

We tend to add a tonne of these to our more colourful language things like the common "Hell" and "Heck" become "Ell" and "Eck" normally to speed up words used in frustration or to add emphasis on them.
Either way you still cant get them wrong saying the full words, its all dependant on the region of the United Kingdom you are dealing with. If your using this to make content or relate to people, it might be worth checking how they approach curse words before you run with it as for example in the south of UK where I live we approach words and phrases way different to those in the North.

Fucking Hell is normally London area of the UK

Fucking Heck is in the middle of the UK

The rest we don't care what they say

Just wondering about the lingo.

Oh boy do I know about regions... I'm originally from Boston. Lots of dialects and different slangs even within the city itself (Southies, North Shore, the cape etc..)
