Okay so I was reading this article on this new dialect they're all talking about on the streeeeeets and it's meant to be like, the first mult-ethnic dialect in Britain because it mixes Cockney with Jamaican creole and Bengali blah blah blah and they were saying that 'London rap stars such as Lady Sovereign and Dizzee Rascal' are sole contributors ( I knew there was a legitimate reason for loving them) ANNNNNNNNND they wrote a translation for 'Galang':
"London calling, speak the slang now/ boys say wha gwan [what's going on], girls say wh'what [what what] slam, galang [hot] galang galang"
POSSIBLY THE BEST EVER. Made me laugh anyway. And here are some choice phrases I'd like you all to fit into your everyday discourse,kids:
From the Indian subcontinent:
Skets.........Slippers
Creps.........Trainers
Nang..........Good
Neek..........Wimp
Bres..........Man
Chuddies......Underwear
Jamaican:
Ends......Area
Beanie....Girl
Tonk......Fat person
Cockney:
Manor......Home
Kegs.......Trousers
DO IT.
