Arrr, it be true 'ya scallywags and Pirate wannabees, today be yer day!

Avast maties, today be "Talk Like A Pirate Day" so, here a couple of examples ... in english and spanish ... to help you brush up on your Pirate-ese:

  • Avast = "Heads Up", "Look Out", "Trucha"
  • Arrr = Pretty much anything: "I agree", "That's cool", "Hey man", "Hey Guey", etc...
  • Beauty/Me Beauty = "Hottie", "Pretty Lady", "Mamacita"
  • Smartly = "Right now", "Quickly", "Andele"

If you want to impress 'yer beauty, here are a couple of cool pirate pickup lines from talklikeapirate.com:

  • Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly?
  • I’d love to drop anchor in your lagoon.
  • Prepare to be boarded!
  • Pardon me, but would ya mind if I fired me cannon through your porthole?
