What are some words or phrases that your grandparents or parents used, that are not common any longer?
I just thought of this question (which is a repeat of a similar question that was asked here years ago), when reading an email from a friend tonight. She mentioned having some work done in her apartment, and that it would be a shambles. I was thinking about how my grandmother would use the word “shambles” but it’s not something that you hear used very often anymore.
What are some words or phrases that your parents used that you don’t hear too much now?
