Street slang is a common argot used by many youth and members of minority subculturres to express specific sentiment not easily encapsulated by the conventional english language. Common Examples of street slang include:

  • Vato (used by hispanic immigrants in gangs),
  • Homie,
  • Holla,
  • Cuhz,
  • Ragsnaozzle Gus Gus,
  • Home Dawg, and many others.

Barack Obama's use of such language and familiarity with such patios was one of the key aspects of his identity politics based campaign.[1]

Notes

  1. Many linguist's view street slang as destructive influence on society, as it degrades communication skills among disadvantaged youth, encouraging subpar communication.
