International Talk Like A Pirate Day
(Undated) — Ahoy matey, and shiver me timbers, it’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day. The holiday has been around since 1995, but Pirates have been around since the 14th century. They are people who rob ships at sea in search of valuables. In books, movies and television shows, Pirates are usually depicted with a peg leg, an eye patch, a parrot and a treasure map. Some words and phrases you can use today include blimey, batten down the hatches, scallywag, there she blows, argh matey, walk the plank and yo ho ho.
