People used to use the term 'common law', though I don't think it ever had legal recognition. In Scotland, there was an 'irregular' form of marriage by 'habit and repute'.In the U.S. most states have done away with common law shack up recognition.

I have read "filch" many times and certainly knew its meaning, but it's not part of the broadly used US popular spoken language.Filch is often used here when referring to petty theft, such
as office things like a pen or pencil etc.

I have used blowsey when describing a certain type of woman.Did you ever hear the word: "Blowse?" Not to be confused with the garment: "Blouse." If you’re constantly running out of the house with your hair all askew, leaving your phone forgotten on the kitchen table, and forgetting your keys, you might be a blowse. In Ye Olde England a blowse actually referred almost solely to an unkempt woman, but I think in our modern times we can apply it to almost anyone!
