chat up


to speak to someone with the intent of eventually engaging in s-xual intercourse with them. generally conducted in a relaxed, playful and outstandingly obvious manner.

almost invariably carried out by men on women; to be a male recipient means you’re either extremely lucky or the giver believes you, as the british say, to bat for the other side.

a common, braindead, and therefore quintessentially british phrase, which explains the strange and nonsensical definition(s) sitting next to this one. to chat up is a type of the unfortunate word of banter, which shares all three properties mentioned above.
guy 1: “cor, look at all the fit birds in the place!”
guy 2: “yeah, i’m gonna chat up the one in the tight black skirt. phwoar!”

guy 1 walks in hungover and bruised.
guy 2: “what did you get up to?”
guy 1: “i got trashed and started chatting up this stunner. i started pulling and i was all set to bang her but then her boyfriend came back from the bar.”

a couple are at a restaurant. the girl goes to the restroom while the guy places the order. when she comes back, the guy and the waitress have just finished talking.
girl: “i can’t take my eyes off you for a second. you were blatantly chatting her up.”
