fab & fancy

  • Intro

    Hello. Today I'm going to teach you two words British native speakers use on a daily basis. These words are quite informal, so you wouldn't necessarily use them in an official situation. The first word is 'fab'. 'Fab' is short for 'fabulous'. Your style can be 'fab'. The other word is 'fancy'. If you fancy something, you want it. 'Do you fancy a coffee?' 'Sorry, I don't fancy lunch now'.
