Particularly in ghettos and such. Doing a small project, would appreciate.

If theres a website to direct me to that be great

This might be a little complicated and I don't got time to explain cuz I'm gettin ready for work but more or less.

moe/joe/yung/slim - terms of endearment
kill = wow
go 'head = go ahead
wholetime = the whole time
boofin = stink
lunchin = actin a fool
cranker/roller = slut
bama/gump/joker = a clown or lame

I'll let others add to it.

Cise/cised (pronounced psyced): hype/hyped up
Ja (pronounced like Ja Rule): like; kinda
Stamp: bet/okay



Example
"dog, I'm ja cised I got these Wizards tickets from my job for da low, wholetime they sellin em for like double what I paid mo'...."

not at all, zero chance whatsoever. most of those people aren't from DC either

but a lot of younger people from surrounding areas, including wealthy suburbs, might know them, i.e. bama, yung/jo/mo, blown, fakin

also you should know these words are prevalent in DC and certain parts of MD, and maybe make their way into VA after a time. so some of them might be more popular in certain parts than others

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

go/goin = go hard/be goin hard
steal/clutch = punch
heemin = smoking a lot
hoovin = killin the jay
