Thanks Grim. It seems a minter is a "fit" woman. heh ;)

I love the way you guys use the word "fit" The way you use it, it means attractive. We use it to mean a person who has a lot of physical strength and stamina; someone who excercises a lot.
"I am fit because I have been working out at the gym for ten years."
"Are you fit enough to compete in the marathon?"

Oh. Minter where I grew up meant somthing like trog (but more lazy).
Trog may be spelt trogg.

I've never heard the word 'minter' but perhaps it's a variation of 'munter'?
Posted by Sul_DUPE1, around 22nd June 2006:
 
I assumed you meant munter. Though I seem to recall another time you used a word that had a different meaning when you grew up to the rest of the country. Cant remember what it was now.

The word used to describe a truly hideous beast of a woman.

I'm going to try very hard not to take any of this personally. ;)
