Bring us your expression

What they say where you're from and isn't in the Slangtionary yet

You are adding to Busybody. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Say it out loud, 3 to 60 seconds. Reading it is not the same as hearing it.

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.

How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • Our street’s got a proper busybody, clocking everyone through the net curtains and messaging the group chat when your wheelie bin’s an hour late.
  • The neighbourhood watch coordinator of the cul-de-sac in Oxshott is the village busybody par excellence, walks the entire street with her terrier between half past six and half past seven every evening, notes every parcel delivery in a leather notebook, and circulates the weekly summary at the Sunday morning coffee at the church hall.
  • My great aunt is the family busybody, she knows the salaries of all the cousins, the dating history of every niece, the medical conditions of every uncle, and the precise amount that each branch contributed to the Christmas hamper of the matriarch in the original Yorkshire household last December.
  • Don't tell Sharon yet or the whole estate'll know by tea, she's a proper busybody.
  • Every office has one busybody who somehow knows who's off sick, who's quitting, and who cried in the toilets.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
