Who is disrespecting the term โBlightyโ
ย
I see people questioning itโs common usage in 2025
i see people calling out organisations who use it to scam peopleย
but the term Blighty itself? Nope
โwe rโ in front of anything does add context mind youย
"Blighty" is a British slang term for Britain or England, ultimately derived from the Urdu word "vilฤyatฤซ," meaning "foreign" or "European," according to Wiki, and was mainly used in the 19th Century and then WWI. It is thus a non English loan word. But I'm sure you knew that.ย
