Teenage slang translation thread

[ThreeBeeOneGee]

This is what I have learned this evening...

Beast = very good.
Peak = rubbish, unfair.

If anyone can add anything else, please do, in the interests of helping me understand what my son is saying to me.

Yes Pesky and at school in the 80s I well remember the awful feeling when you couldn't do right for doing wrong....go with a lad and you were a slag...don't go with a lad and you were a "fridge" or frigid.

I wonder what the term for a girl who doesn't sleep with boys is now.

Tilly yes...it's horrible from either sex.

In my head I'm saying 'Pure' Neo but I'm not sure where I got that from so might not be at all accurate

Agreed, they are such violent sounding words to me, especially gash, just nasty.

I mean the male version of Gash would be "Stalk" or "Rod" or something...that reduces them to their sexual organ.

"Nice bit of Rod over there..." kind of thing. Can't quite see it really!

"Cor...get a load of that stalk girls!"

Hotspice isn't just a London ting

Sket comes from Skettel another Jamaican one.

Bigtilly I live in hither green

I look at all this and I keep seeing Rastamouse in my head

sorry...'Galdem'

I really hope all this gangsta nonsense is over by the time by dds are grown up

The kids at the North London comp I used to teach at always said 'alie' if they agreed with someone's point of view and wished to back them up. Do they still say that?

Also, creps for trainers???

ohhelp it's a Twitter thing so you tweet 'I have nothing to say' and then add #boringcow, as if to reinforce the point you're making :)

yes to Alie, used lots (also North London here) for when you agree with someone.

I always thought it meant 'your joking/kidding me/lying' so the opposite of how its meant now.

Yep, creps still trainers/shoes.

Yes to creps.

Waves to the galdem!

Surprised no-ones mentioned shankin yet.

Thing is, Pesky, it took me ages to work out how to explain the meaning of 'alie' because the kids always say it in a really vociferous way, like 'you read my mind'

Tilly and the noun, 'shank'...'got bare shanks and bare manz backin me, blud' :(

Haha bigTilly shankin! They say 'merked' round here.

Actually, I'm thinking now, merked is more beaten up/attacked and shanked/shivved is knifed.

.

Facety/faasti - impudent, brass necked.

Soon come - Will be with you soon.

Cool runnings - have a safe trip.

(Everyting) cook and curry - everythings fine, everything's sorted.

Lick - hit.

Vex - annoy.

Don't it - isn't it?

Raw - ravinously hungry.

Lol I've never heard of lewisham being referred to as the blue borough haha... Makes sense!

Terrys loving that list, but I don't know any teens who use those words. Too old school.

Aunts, uncles and grandma's definitely, but not the teens of today

Chirpse - flirt
Reach - Bit like coming/come 'reach here fam'
On Road - Outside

A fair few I know do, Pesky. One particular lad who dropped a couple of those expressions into conversation recently had a hell of a shock when I responded in kind!

A couple of others I've heard recently - bounce (to leave as in "I'm going to bounce soon") and hench - strong and muscular. I've quite taken to hench but I'm trying desperately to avoid using it. New teen slang is not attractive coming from an old woman!
