<p>I’m not sure as to whether or not this is slang word, but our history teacher last year would call everything he didn’t like “bunk”.</p>
<p>Dude, hella, ratchet, hyphy, bawwws, fasho, trip, shady,breh, brah, bruh, finna, deuces. dope, tight, ETC.</p>
<p>I use the term “ratchet” entirely too often.</p>
<p>Some from my area:
YOLO
fbgm
For real doe</p>
<p>“That’s so dank.” Dank = cool, awesome, etc.
“That’s so sketch/sketchy.” Sketch/sketchy = suspicious, unsettling.</p>
<p>We’re kind of weird in Colorado.</p>
<p>^Yes, I’m from CA and we use sketch.</p>
<p>Not dank though.</p>
<p>Ah… You Californians keep impregnating us with words… I heard “legit” come up a few times recently…</p>
<p>lol i forgot about scandalous, hyphy, ratchet, etc.</p>
<p>I hear “that’s dope” and “that’s boys” ALL the time xD</p>
<p>A lot of people here say:
-You already know
-yolo
-Nah, son
-YASSSS!!!
-She got the cake
-You wallin
-Hey mistah!
-Like, omg
-Like, lol
-Like, totally
-epic fail
-wowerz</p>
<p>…and tons more</p>
<p>Slang in my area is… bad words.</p>
<p>lol Here in Indiana people always, like, say like in the beginning or the middle of the sentence. Like everyone not just the girls lol. See I can’t stop doing. Also at my school white people can say the N-words without being criticized (and my school is mostly blacks). But almost all the slang are common for everywhere.</p>
<p>neva dat 10char</p>
<p>In Hawaii I hear some weird slang.</p>
<p>chantin’ (chanting) = saying something, often for a long time. Ex. - My teacher was chantin’ 'bout how my homework was late. </p>
<p>Probably a Hawaii thing because Hawaiian chanting and hula go hand and hand.</p>
<p>dicks = bad. Ex.- That teacher is so dicks, she didn’t let me turn in my late work.</p>
<p>Combine the slang words with the multi-language pidgin we speak and it’s like a whole different world.</p>
<p>Most of these are just universal American slang. Minus the Hawaii stuff and the stuff pertaining to the south like “yall” etc…although a lot of people go to southern universities and pick it up.</p>

<p>“Cray” and “cray cray” are pretty big. People love describing things as “ratchet”. And “sketch” or “sketchy”; I swear even adults use that one.</p>
