Talk Like A Pirate Day

Talk Like a Pirate Day is an annual observance celebrated on September 19th, where people all over the world are encouraged to speak like pirates for a day. The event was created in 1995 by John Baur and Mark Summers, who were playing racquetball and started to talk to each other in pirate speak for fun.

Talk Like a Pirate Day has since become a worldwide phenomenon, with people of all ages and backgrounds embracing the opportunity to talk like pirates, dress up in pirate costumes, and participate in pirate-themed events and activities.

On Talk Like a Pirate Day, people may use phrases and expressions commonly associated with pirates, such as “Ahoy, matey!”, “Shiver me timbers!”, “Avast, ye scurvy dog!”, and “Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!” They may also dress up in pirate costumes and accessories, such as eye patches, bandanas, and swords, and engage in pirate-themed games and activities, such as treasure hunts and pirate-themed parties.

Talk Like a Pirate Day provides a fun and playful way to embrace the spirit of adventure and imagination, and to celebrate the rich and colourful history and mythology of pirates. It is a day to let loose, have fun, and embrace the swashbuckling spirit of the high seas.
