Your describing text slang, real slang/ street slang is words like ‘capin’ ‘Bae’ ‘lit’ ‘bookie’ ‘G’ ‘my man’ ‘B’ ‘Pe’z’ etc etc
Hi your a bitch
Quite dope list, but there’re some of the definitions that are not fit for the examples given, e.g. with “hustle”
Also- The word, “cool”, can mean: trendy, popular, fun, and very good, and etc..
Defiantly needs updating all this slang is well out of date and some has been around since I was at school (I’m 35). I’m quite gutted it’s not 2022 up to date as this was exactly the type of thing I was looking for! A chart list with loads of words 🙁😕.
Words like ‘capin’ ‘Bae’ ‘lit’ ‘bookie’ ‘G’ ‘my man’ ‘B’ ‘Pe’z’ is the up to date slang.
Proper slang/ street slang words –
Capin – Stop lying
Beggin it – wanting it, going on about it
Flames – Police about
Bea – A blokes best girl
‘G’ – Mate
Bookie – weird, strange but funny
Patent – sorted
