Pirate Speak: How To Talk Like A Pirate - Talk Like A Pirate Day UK Headquarters

Pirates never speak of "a big ship", they call it a "great, grand ship! " They never say never, they say "No nay ne'er! "Drop all your "g"'s when you speak and you'll get words like "rowin'", "sailin'" and "fightin'". Dropping all of your "v"'s will get you words like "ne'er", "e'er" and "o'er".Instead of saying "I am", sailors say, "I be".
