Similar scallywag or scally!

Good ones. I've added them!

Teacher !  What is the meaning in Bad boy ?  Is it same meaning in Chav ? 

 

A bad boy is similar to a chav. It's somebody who likes to do things that are against the law. It can also be used to describe a man who often cheats on his wife or girlfriend. 

Thanks teacher :) 

Can use it to describe a teacher who often cheats on their students ?  ><"

To cheat on your partner means to have a romantic relationship with someone behind their back. A teacher would cheat his students, but not cheat on his students. A teacher that cheated his or her students would just be a bad teacher!

Thank you teacher :)
