Terrier Immediately Gives Up Little Buddy Under Questioning
Some dogs have apparently not heard the infamous phrase, “snitches get stitches” because this little terrier almost immediately gives up his little dog friend after a single question. I mean, she barely gets the question out before the terrier puts his paw on the other dog to indicate who the culprit truly was. However, we do have to admit that the little dog did do something pretty bad. She, or he, pooped in the kitchen!
Looking up this video did make us wonder where the word snitch actually came from. Interestingly, we learned that the in England there is a British term called “grass” that means “to snitch”. It actually refers to a person that is a police informer and is short for the slang “grasshopper” which means the same thing. Apparently, the term has been used in England since the 1930s. Originally, the grasshopper term was part of a secret language of rhyming slang that criminals used to speak openly about thing related to the police, especially informants and snitches.
According to one article we found, the word snitch dates back to the late 18th century (or 1700s). Originally, the word meant “a fillip on the nose” where fillip means to flick with a finger or a light slap of the hand. Eventually, the word came to be slang for the nose itself. Since the nose is already associated with people snooping in other’s business (nosy, sniffing out things, etc.), it was not long until snitch became associated with spies or informants. Apparently, in the early to mid 1800s spies and informers were called Nose, with documentation for this appearing in as far back as the 1830s.
