Kiwi used a term yesterday that was new to me... Faegon. It means Fake Aegon. Newer posters are always asking and wondering, "Who is BFS?" I still remember the day I stumbled upon the equation and I asked myself, What is R+L=J? So here is a thread to compile the slang, acronyms, nicknames, common quotes, expressions and abbreviations from A Song of Ice and Fire. I'm not going to give detailed explanations, just the basic definitions. These are off the top of my head, so I've more familiar with my own slang... Please add your own!
