The University of York have found some words that have fallen out of use and which they think could be revived.
Some great sounding ones -
'rouzy-bouzy' is a colourful term for being boisterously drunk
'nickum' is a cheat
'snout-fair' meant comely or handsome, and
'betrump' means to deceive or cheat - say no more!
