How to talk like a Pirate
Follow these basic Pirate speak phrases
  • Ahoy! - "Hello!"
  • Ahoy, me hearties! - Equivalent of "Hello, my friends!"
  • Avast! - Stop and give attention. It can be used in a sense of surprise, "Whoa! Get a load of that!" which today makes it more of a "Check it out" or "No way!" or "Get off!"
  • Aye! - "Why yes, I agree most heartily with everything you just said or did."
  • Aye aye! - "I'll get right on that sir, as soon as my break is over."
  • Arrr! - This one is often confused with arrrgh, which is of course the sound you make when you sit on a belaying pin. "Arrr!" can mean, variously, "yes," "I agree," "I'm happy," "I'm enjoying this beer," and "That was a clever remark you or I just made." And those are just a few of the myriad possibilities of Arrr!
  • Savvy - "Is that okay with you? Do you understand?"
  • Weigh anchor! - "Let's go!"
