“ The fact that i got a warning point doesnt change the fact that u literally got schooled bruh. Hope u dont end up ur whole life with only personality trait being a lana del rey fan. some other recommendations: read some books for real, maybe even the ones lana is referencing all the time- that's an okay start. good luck x” girl u went out of ur way to dm me that an hour after we stopped talking and then you’re still posting in this thread over an argument that’s over.

i think there's some confusion, i don't think one of the songs that people believe are from this set of songs actually is?
-
go read ya comments boooo moving on did anyone try the chicken
-
that's kind of the vibe i got but i didn't want to project onto it as an "alex turner" song. it feels like the kind of song alex turner would write about himself from a woman's perspective, which is what i meant by the "have cut when it begins". alex turner feels like the kind of guy that would be "too cool" to stick around at a party, mysterious in the same vein as lana. definitely not the kind of guy to be steaming in pre's.
-
lit rally i always thought this song sounded like it wasn't just written by lana? some of the lyrics are very alex is that literally an insult?
-
but how does the party begin in verse 2 and end in verse 1 i mean also looking at that the tweets are SOOOOO few and far between. like there's years between some of those. and a limmy tweet that's over five years old too? like for me that just doesn't seem like "popular slang" if you get what i mean.
-
you literally just said i argued with you when it was just a back and forth discussing point of view on english phrasing? like i was just telling you as a native speaker the wording makes sense and then you called it an argument? girl.
-
nope, i've heard all the usual but i don't think anyone has ever "commonly" used half cut. never in glasgow nor any area of scotland. also the fact the urban dictionary isn't particularly popular speaks volumes at least to me. i would have expected a little bit more than that also, for everyone's reference it is a thing: http://onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/cut-out#:~:text=verb%20%2D%20intransitive,to%20go%2C%20leave%2C%20exit.
-
okay lana "you my friend have cut" makes more sense as a sentence. also, you can literally hear the "v" sound girl there is no "correction" you're acting like this was an argument rather than a back and forth and then u got defensive so i'm here to tell you like it is! unless ur lana herself telling me the lyrics its not a correction, in reality it's unlikely we're gonna be able to tell because they're similar words. put whatever u want in ur itunes, doesn't phase me !
-
i'm scottish too and that's literally never been used ever around me ! living in glasgow and aberdeen someone's salty they have 20 posts on lanaboards and cant get anyone to like them
-
girl i am a native english speaker i don't need told, it's informal nick googled the lyrics awhile back bc he didn't understand "have cut" is an english phrase. a random urban dictionary phrase that non-native speakers don't use, and i have never heard used, is less likely to be the lyric than a common phrase. ur just salty from being dragged earlier on that other thread oop
-
yeah like i thought i was maybe missing something but as a native speaker what she said doesn't sound incorrect at all? but if that's how you guys are taught english it might sound weird?
-
i mean it makes sense either way? like am i missing something? that sounds completely fine. if someone said to me "you have cut when it begins" "you have cut at the point that party begins" ?
-
it...doesn't sound weird? like that's exactly how you would use that sentence in british english at least. "you have cut when the party begins" that makes complete sense? "you have left as the party has begun".
-
no, it's not just like "leaving" i guess. to cut a party its more of a "cool" way of saying it. the implication is he's too cool for the party, and cuts just as it's kicking off. some of the lyrics, notably, are british sounding or reference british party culture (mr brightside, etc.) and i think it may be a more british phrase.
-
"to cut a party" in english is a common phrase meaning to leave. far more common than a completely random urban dictionary definition i had never heard of up until nick sent me it a month ago.
