one-ff & oik

  • Intro

    Hello. Would you like to sound more British or understand British people better? This lesson will help you. I've prepared two words starting with the letter 'o' that are very British and quite informal. The first word is 'one-off'. If something happens as a 'one-off', it only happens once. And the second word is 'oik'. Someone who is an oik is very rude and obnoxious. So, you wouldn't like to be friends with someone who is an oik.

It won't happen again, it was a one-off.
