what does "toms" mean here?
"but everyone told her to see how she feels after her mom talks to her toms..."
|

|
She could be referring to her 'Tom cats' (male cats)

Being British, I can imagine "toms" being a dirty word in this situtation.
|
|
|
Not being British, I can't.

Why do you keep deleting my post. That is, i reiterate, not something I have ever come across whilst living in New Zealand

I thought it was a shortcut for "tomorrow" but I guess I'm worng
|

"Tomorrow" seems more plausible than "tomcats" -- why do you think you're wrong.
BTW, Where is this quote from: Britian , US, New Zealand, etc? Maybe if you gave us more context, it could be helpful.

Toms or Tommies were a term the Germans used to called the British during the war years.

Is it possible to be "tomorrows", meaning the days after today?
|
|
i think it was just a typo..
thanx anyways

It's like something from a Carry On movie, where a woman has two tom cats, and the guy says to her, "That's a lovely pair of toms you've got there. Can I stroke them?"
