Definitions
Liverpool slang abbreviation for the Cast Iron Shore (locally 'Cazzy'), a stretch of the River Mersey's industrial waterfront near Dingle. The area takes its name from the iron slag waste once deposited there. It has been reclaimed as a community beach and arts space, and remains a marker of Scouse local identity.
We spent the afternoon down the Cazzy, skimming stones into the Mersey and watching the ferries go by.

Polari slang for a house or dwelling — Polari being the secret coded language used by gay men, theatre folk, and market traders in 20th-century Britain. Carsey (also spelled karzey or khazi in its toilet sense) has a delightfully playful sound, and its Polari roots give it a sense of subcultural history. Today it occasionally resurfaces in LGBTQ+ contexts or among people who love the campy heritage of Polari. A small but evocative piece of British linguistic history.
