Molly has many meanings in the UK. In the north-east it is used to insult those who were once called "square". In south London I have heard it join a litany of other words used to abuse and intimidate gay men.

Read More »Jordan, she of the comedy breasts and even more more humorous husband, has attacked Liz Hurley for dressing her son like "a molly". She went on to promise that she would not molly-fy (so to speak) her own son. "I like to keep him trendy - I don't want him to be a molly. I think that must be a Brighton term," she announced to Heat magazine, with a mixture of pride and indignation. Molly has many meanings in the UK. In the north-east it is used to insult those who were once called "square". In south London I have heard it join a litany of other words used to abuse and intimidate gay men. However, Jordan was right when she claimed that her use of the word was specific to Brighton. I should know - I have lived in Brighton for the past 12 years, and am now married to a woman who was born here. Down on the beach, "molly" is an insult bandied about by schoolchildren, and refers to those kids who, for reasons of sartorial self-neglect or simple, contemptible poverty, look as if their mothers have dressed them. Or, to quote my wife: "The girls who called other girls mollies were the cool kids. The mollies always wore tweedy old knickers and your great-granny's stuff." The root of the word is, apparently, "mollycoddled". We should be thankful to Jordan (who I have interviewed twice) for keeping ancient east Sussex dialect alive. Her other favourite word is "doughnut", which, in the context she uses it, refers to anyone more stupid than her. Thus, when she is not accompanied by Peter Andre, it is almost never employed. This, after all, is a woman who, having shown no knowledge whatsoever of the contents of her two autobiographies, revealed herself to be someone who has written two more books than she has likely read.

Read More »Generally, you'll be able to feel the speed of the car with anything more than above 200 horsepower. Volkswagen's Golf GTI, for example, has upwards of 245 horsepower. Cars with power ratings above 300 horsepower will usually be serious performance vehicles, and modern supercars will have more than 500 horsepower.
You’ll see horsepower (hp) and torque figures discussed whenever we talk about vehicle performance in our car reviews . In a nutshell, a car’s horsepower and torque explain how much ‘oomph’ the vehicle has. The numbers matter as they have a direct impact on how fast a car will feel when you put your foot down on the accelerator.You may also see terms like brake horsepower (bhp), pound feet (lb ft) and Pferdestarke (PS) around the internet, but what do they all mean? Here, we break it all down. Before we dive in, it’s important to note that Pferdestarke (PS), horsepower (hp), kilowatt (kW) and chevaux vapeur (CV) all relate to the same thing – they just use different unit sizes and measurement methods. It’s a bit like how miles and yards are different units of measuring length, and Celsius, Kelvin and Fahrenheit are different measures of temperature. Different manufacturers and outlets use different units to measure horsepower. Here at Auto Trader, we've historically used brake horsepower (bhp) as the unit of measurement for power and some of our older reviews and articles will feature this unit. However, from mid-2017 onwards, we switched to using PS for power to reflect increasing adoption of these units across most of the motoring industry. PS stands for pferdestarke, which is the German word for horsepower. However, it's important to note that, while we use the PS figure in our reviews, we refer to it as 'horsepower' rather than PS to make it clearer and easier to understand.
