SLANG WORDS

[quote="Hayder Sabri"][quote="TheRevivalEditor"]

raas man- no real meaning, you use it when you are shocked, excited...

[/quote]

the term 'ah raas' actually derives from afro-carribean dilect and whilst i dont knw the literal meaning, its actually quite an obscene word. english lessons as school 4 ya :)[/quote]

Our high school English teacher, who has since killed herself, read 'ah raas' in a poem and told us it meant 'our ass'.

explain ya self wha yu mean when yu say im 'alf caste?

is picasso painting alf caste? schaikovksy music alf caste?

that poem? sick poem that 😃

That's the one.

oh aye, t'was great. u heard the audio? t'was humorous to say the least

We never got to hear to hear the audio, just our white middle-class teacher trying her best West-Indian accent.

oh that must have sucked.

the audio is hilarious, no point really now but see if u can listen 2 it sumhow.

I HATED that poem

my sister also studied it so she helped me revise it

it was SO embarrasing when I was picked out to read this stupid poem in front of the class

I'm terrible with accents-the only one I can pull of is a Brummie accent and thats only cos mum has a brummie accent

"BLURT" means go

"just Blurt" means "just go"

e.g then he blurted....... (then he went)

[b]BOO*YA![/b]

Is my slang word for the week.

mean wicked.

If a person has some food on them...or anything for that matter and you want them to share it you say "Share the love"

And sugar means kisses...they way you'd say to your little sister/brother to "gimme some sugar"

its SO funny when parents pick up, use and mis-apply slang words

mum has bad eye sight so she always asks us how she looks

one time I overhead her asking my baby sister "do my earrings look buff?"

which means "do my ear rings look good looking"?

she's a joker sumtimes 😃

[color=magenta]got rushed-means you got jumped

dough-money

crib/manor/yard/hood-ur hse/area

beanie-good looking girl

bling bling-jewellary

heavy/chung-so nice/good

blud/bruv[/color]

My parents say unlegal instead of illegal....not sure if that's a slang word.

[color=magenta]yeah unlegal is a slang word i knw who use is "he is unlegal" n my favourite "laal fassfoot" red passport[/color]

[quote="Beast"]What is the current status of 'safe'?

Is it used outside Birmingham? If so, has it become too common?

My mates say 'safe' instead of 'bye', 'huda hafiz' or 'salaam'.[/quote]

beasty boy…dont be a silly brummie…u lot never invented a single slang word...

all those slang words are from london…(alrite maybe 1 or 2 from america...)

more specifically, they r [color=green]carribbean[/color] london slang…

london always ruled da slang dictionary...

now all da white and brown boyz talk like jamaicans….

da funniest thing in da world is hearing brummies, northerners, & non londoners in general, tryin to talk our lingo…every one copies us but sounds lame when doing it...

only lilSis can do it properly on here…

im going carnival tomorrow…gonna practice talking like lilsis sos i can fit in…

safe…

It's a dieing language only spoken by ingenious cockney population

Did a unit on it for GCSE english.

Many famous British poetry written in cockney slang format

The principal of our Islamic Summer School totally banned the use of Slang words this Summer.

Its very easy to slip into slang without even realising it...when I become too "relaxed" my speech becomes way too common.
