Acronym POSH
MurielB Lun 3 Avr - 23:09
Tonight we talked about the origin of the acronym POSH during our meeting with the croydon polyglot club and it was very informative. The explaination shows that posh people like to get the best on each part of the journey (or life)
It In the Marine Industry it is widely known the acronym P.O.S.H. refers to Port out, Starboard home for wealthy passengers traveling from England to India. Understanding Port=Leftside of ship, and Starboard=rightside, a POSH cabin would allow a view of land when close enough.
