Subject: Slanguage in your area...
What's up...

I'm just wondering what the slanguage is in your region...me being from the
Yay, there's never a shortage of slang, usually new terms every month or
so...but like for little slang, too, what do yall say?

Slang most people use over here...

-shady...EVERYBODY says this now, but most of my friends say it funny, high
pitched...
-oh boy...everyone says this in the bay, just whenever...
-cuz...like friend, homie, or even enemy, just to call someone that..derived
from crips...
-blood...same as cuz, but the blood way of sayin it...
-supacuz...just to joke with someone if they're wearin all blue...
-flamed up...same as supacuz, but in red...
-c-walk or b-walk...ya know...
(btw nobody really bangs anymore, it's more friendly, or jokin around or
somethin)
-amigo...just what most mexicans are called...
-fayako...police or security or something...it's polynesian...
-shoot...shoot the dice...
-come up...having more than you started with...especially when shootin
-smacked...lose money shootin
-hard...another way of saying tight or cool...
-bumpin or dumpin...lots of bass...
-dogg...just friend or somethin
-blow...smoke...
-pullin or pullin it...getting with a girl...
-piece...girlfriend or ho or somethin..."that's his piece"
-the G, the Vill, the Garden, etc...areas of EPA (East Palo Alto)...
-the 'Sco...frisco...San Francisco...
-Oaktown, O-Town, Oak, the O....Oakland...
-Sac...sacramento...
-Diego...San Diego..
-Mateo (pronounced Mat-E-O)...San Mateo (the real name is pronounced San
Mah-Tay-O)
-off the backboard...way of saying off the hook, off the hinges, off the
roster, off the meatrack, etc...
-poppin' collars...ya know...E-40 came up with most Bay slang...
-dub...20 or 2 or double...20 or 2 of whatever, 20 dollars, 20 inchers, 2
dollars...
-fumble...droppin somethin
-lace...hook someone up...
-not slang, but whenever someone does something embarrassing, like tripping
or something, you say "don't worry, nobody saw you"...
-put it on something...swear on something...
-izzle, eezy, etc...just say stuff like that...

That's all I can think of right now...I don't know how much of these terms
are used in other places, so I'm just wondering...

Nobody says "ill", "son", "dun" or "dope" over here...
