Words and expressions, chapter 2-7

Today we explained and translated the following:

Please translate into Swedish OR, if you prefer, explain the following in English:

An extension to the house

My extended family

It just seemed so claustrophobic

My whole world started to cave in

I had to put up with his various odours

I shrugged my shoulders

Frequent use of profanity is the sign of an inferior intellect

Whenever I showed the slightest inkling of brains

My dad walked in and belched twice

They slagged the place off

Two of Leicester's posher areas

She was wearing black combats

There's all the hassle of nicking it in the first place

Ady had put on a mock accent

A little white crop top

You're easy to wind up

My heart went haywire

I'd be dead meat if I brought a girl home

I didn't feel like a gooseberry because I was involved in the laughs

We hit it off straight away

They weren't going to lose face over it

We'd been skiving the afternoon lessons

He wouldn't let up
