    Gap yah? See e.g.: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?te... "The name given to the year or often a longer period of time that posh kids spend traveling the world using daddies money after leaving their expensive private school."

    Der Ursprungssketch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKFjWR7X5dU


    Er hat sogar einen eigenen Wiki-Eintrag: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gap_Yah


    Zitat:


    Gap Yah is a comedy sketch that gained widespread popularity and press coverage, especially in the United Kingdom, after being published on the video-sharing site YouTube in February 2010.


    [...]


    The video depicts a student named Orlando describing to his friend Tarquin several of his experiences and encounters during a gap year in Tanzania, Peru and Burma, all of which resulted in him vomiting—or "chundering"—everywhere.[3] The video is a spoof of the British upper-middle-class ex-public school students (using distinctively drawn-out vowels)—commonly known as rahs—who boast about their experiences, typically in the third world, prior to attending university.[3]

    The sketch has resulted in the term being increasingly used in schools and universities across the United Kingdom.[4]
