<div class="mbox mbox-med" role="presentation"><span class="mbox-title"><span class="mbox-icon metadata">[[File:OOjs UI icon notice.svg|14px|link=]]</span>'''This category and all of its contents are being migrated to [https://thegreatwar.uk/wiki/Category:Glossary_of_words_and_phrases Glossary of Words and Phrases] on our sister project [https://thegreatwar.uk The Great War]'''</span>
<div class="mbox-text">This is being done because the '''Lonsdale Battalion''' and '''Great War''' projects are two separate entities that require their own spaces to continue effectively. The Lonsdale Battalion website needs to remain focussed on its original goals. Once the migration is complete, the pages here will be removed and the category deleted. All online presence of these pages will continue at [https://thegreatwar.uk thegreatwar.uk]</div>

This category page forms the central hub of our glossary of words and phrases of the Armed Forces of [[Great Britain]] during the Great War. These words and phrases include slang of the [[trench]]es and the Air Force; British and American service terms and expressions in everyday use; nicknames, sobriquets, and the titles of British and [[Commonwealth]] [[Regiment]]s and their origins; and warfare in general. These words and phrases are contemporary to the war, which is reflected in the language used, some of which may seem derogatory by today's standards.
