The Little Book of Chav Speak

the long version

Have you got ‘nuff bling’? Are you ‘well phat’?Do you have any idea what that means?If not, then you need The Little Book of Chav Speak to unlock the latest hip lingo that’s hitting the streets.Welcome to the dictionary of Chav speak. It describes and details the extensively limited lexicon of a sociological underclass known to most as ‘Chavs’. This growing breed of scallies, charvers and layabouts has gradually developed its own language which is completely unintelligible to the untrained ear. This book is designed to help the normal English speaker understand the terminology of these groups of people who hang about in shopping centres, leisure parks and bowling alleys in the hope that, through understanding and knowledge, we will one day be able to communicate more efficiently with them.So next time you walk past a group of Chavs outside a bowling alley, bus station or cinema, try eavesdropping – you may be surprised at what you hear.
