(2) term for enemy aeroplanes, typically used during WW2."Captain, bogeys at three o'clock!" 3) hand propelled cart that travels on railway and tram lines. Tony Lloyd of Cardiff sent in the Welsh version: 'Bogey', in England is pronounced as spelt, 'boh-gey', like the railway cart, but in Wales and the USA it pronounced 'bwg-gy'. In Wales it means lumps of green mucus in the nose, but in America and in Wales, there is also the 'bogey-man' (bwggy-man) a mythical creature to frighten you. And in Scotland it means something else to Chris Sanderson: A bogey is a Scottish term for a home made go kart. It usually consisted of a plank of wood and four pram wheels. An additianl plank of wood would be bolted on running perpendicular to the main plank to allow steering. This would be made possible by a length of string with one end nailed to the right side and one on the left side of the perpendicular plank. Also, the word bogey could mean finished or abandoned.

a penny (1d). Also referred to money generally, from the late 1600s, when the slang was based simply on a metaphor of coal being an essential commodity for life. The spelling cole was also used. Common use of the coal/cole slang largely ceased by the 1800s although it continued in the expressions 'tip the cole' and 'post the cole', meaning to make a payment, until these too fell out of popular use by the 1900s. It is therefore unlikely that anyone today will use or recall this particular slang, but if the question arises you'll know the answer. Intriguingly I've been informed (thanks P Burns, 8 Dec 2008) that the slang 'coal', seemingly referring to money - although I've seen a suggestion of it being a euphemism for coke (cocaine) - appears in the lyrics of the song Oxford Comma by the band Vampire weekend: "Why would you lie about how much coal you have? Why would you lie about something dumb like that?..."
