uss, that is so strange! Naff is a slang term I remember being popular in England in the 1980s - I haven't heard it used for ages! Maybe kids still use it as a milder alternative to 'crap' but I dunno why it would appear in a school book![/QUOTE]wow! thats interesting [img]smile.gif[/img] . though our english book is quite new. its from Oxford(no wonder we had to learn the word Naff
