New Word Wednesday

The British English Edition  

During my study abroad summer in Spain, I made a point to blog the words I'd learned each week. It was a good discipline to help me review and reflect. This year there are two British English words that have worked their way into my vocabulary, and I wouldn't mind them being permanent, a remnant of my year. Figured I should define them for you and the continued understanding in our friendship. :P

 "Sorted" : figured out, organized, well planned 

Is dinner sorted for tomorrow night? 

"Cheeky" : forward, brash, funny with a twinge of innuendo  

He got a little too cheeky so I ended the conversation.  

I already did the "Sorry?" thing when I didn't understand what someone said. I also often got made fun of for asking questions with the British intonation (no, not the accent!) These two fit into my lexicon quite nicely.
