Comments on: What did Alex Salmond mean when he used the word brammer? http://maciverblog.co.uk/2009/10/26/what-did-alex-salmond-mean-when-he-used-the-word-brammer/ Tue, 07 Feb 2012 09:37:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Andrew http://maciverblog.co.uk/2009/10/26/what-did-alex-salmond-mean-when-he-used-the-word-brammer/#comment-5052 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 23:18:13 +0000 http://maciverblog.co.uk/?p=1452#comment-5052 Interesting piece – I live in SE London & someone asked me to look up the origin of “brahma” (or whatever) meaning stunning/pretty/sexy girl. He thought it might be rhyming slang, but it seems that its a Gaelic word originally. This is certainly the most convincing article I’ve read about the word’s origins, rather than just an assertion that “x means y”.
