To people from other countries, Cockney rhyming slang may seem nonsensical, but the concept is fairly simple. Choose a phrase that rhymes with your intended word and then use that rhyme in place of the intended word. One common example of rhyming slang is saying "apples and pears" in place of "stairs." The last word in this phrase, "pears," rhymes with the actual meaning"stairs." You could say, "Blimey, I have to climb four sets of apples and pears just to get to me flat!" Another example is using "Barney Rubble" to stand in for "trouble." You could say, "Mate, you're sure gonna be in Barney Rubble for that one!" When using Cockney rhymes in a sentence, you don't need to say the whole rhyme. For example, say, "Mum rang me on the dog." The full rhyme would be "dog and bone," in which "bone" is actually the word that rhymes with "phone." Yet, to make it more funand confusingyou only use the first part of the rhyme. Another example is, "Let's head to the nuclear tonight, boys!" In this instance, "nuclear" refers to "nuclear sub(marine)," which stands in for "pub." Do an Internet search or watch some Cockney movies to learn more common rhymes. For instance, use "Ruby" (short for "Ruby Murray") for "curry," "Adam and Eve" for "believe," "kettle and hob" for "watch" (hob rhymes with fob, an old term for a pocket watch), "butcher's" (butcher's hook) for "look," and "trouble and strife" for "wife."

Summary:
Use rhymes in place of the intended word. Say only the first word of the rhyme. Memorize common Cockney rhyming slang.
