42
Honestly, bro, I don't think good got a meaning.
43
I think it's supposed to represent gun sound, but I don't know why.
44
It don't really got a meaning when we say it.
45
We just be doing it.
46
Some people don't do that no more low key.

93
I think that's more of a Brooklyn thing.
94
I'm from the Bronx, so I don't really use that word.
95
You know what I'm saying?
96
Try to tell a lot of Brooklyn people out there, too.
97
But I don't know.
98
But I heard Trisha's like more like, you know what I'm saying?
99
You're like an OD.
100
I mean, you're just a thottie, like, to be honest.
101
Or like, you're dusty or whatever.
102
It's for the females, I guess.
103
It's like a word of a, it's a disrespectful term.
104
But I don't know.
105
I don't know.
106
I don't know.
107
I just call you a thottie.
108
I don't know.
109
I don't know.
110
How you got day room day room um for me I
111
think from what I raised up of you know I'm saying
112
day room to me is like you know you're not on
113
that like you're not about
114
that you're not really what you say you are like you know what I'm saying
115
so somebody say yo you day room like you really day
116
room like you buns like you're not uh I don't want to say the word
117
because I try and try and get my channel to a whole town demonetized
118
but you just not you just not you not with the action you feel me you know what I'm saying
119
and I got one of my friends who he went to Rikers
120
and he did like two years I think
121
and he told me bro there's an actual place in Rikers
122
so he told me
123
that day room there's a room in the in like over there that's called day room like you go there
124
and you don't you don't like when you in
125
that room it's basically saying without talking
126
that you're not not trying to fight nobody you're not really trying to get it in
127
so that's where you know that's what they told me you know what I'm saying
128
so day room to me
129
so I might call you day room you know what I'm saying
130
that means you're not on that so you might as well get it on if you're really on it Oh, you got valid, so like, so if something come through, you know what I'm saying, like, that's valid, bro, that's valid.
131
Or like, if you just got a good job, or you got a raise, something good, like, yo, that's valid, that's OD, valid, bro, that's good, like, it's good to go.
132
um you got tight tight is like like you mad like I'm tightening their way
133
and sometimes I got friends from everywhere you know I got friends down south
134
and I friends in Atlanta Florida Texas Cali and
135
when I say tight baby thinking like the wrong way bro you don't say
136
but tight to us is just that we just stressed out right now in the moment you know
137
not vex vex is more like this is the same thing like yo he's vex right now You feel me?
138
Don't bother him, he's vexed.
139
It's the same thing, tight vexed, it's the same thing, you man.
140
Heard, I don't use heard, I just use 100 emoji when somebody tell me something like You feel me?
141
It's like copy.
142
You know what I'm saying?
143
I got you.
144
I heard you, I don't use that one, but that's, all the shorty, they all say the same, I don't know why they say it.
145
But, I mean, that's, that's really common here, I just, I personally don't use that one.
146
Yeah.
147
You have bugging so like if you tripping right now or you know bugging is like yo he's bugging right now.
148
He's tripping.
149
He's tripping now.
150
He's bugging like yo leave him alone.
151
He's bugging.
152
It's the same.
153
You can say the same thing like matter fact
154
if you're doing something like too much you can say yo he's bugging right now.
155
Right he's bugging.
156
So it's like you're not in your normal state if that makes sense.
157
You're not you right now.
158
Bye.
159
You got tripping which is kind of the same thing like tripping right now same thing to be honest like OD, like yo you OD right now, like you really OD right now,
160
you OD, OD is like you're doing too much.
161
You know when girls be like, you know, they just be mad loudly, like yo clean, clean Lord, like yo, you ODing you know what I'm saying like you ODing you
162
doing too much same thing with boys sometimes they be doing they be trying to prove it Relax.
163

171
maybe like yo he don't feel finam don't fire like he's done
172
but you know he's here I'm saying right
173
so like it's just like it's a compliment why not
174
that you burn it it's just that you fight um brick you know I'm saying it's cold outside so they was mobbing.
175
This is kind of an old word, low key.
176
I don't think it'd be using that often no more, but you know, you know what I'm saying, New York is in my DNA, bro, so I'm always, so if somebody said, yo, they was mobbing, like mobbing is like 15,
177
20 people, like it was a lot of people, so they mobbing, like yo, they came through, they was mobbing, bro, like world dude, for me, and also, it could also mean like back in the days, they don't do this no more,
178
that I remember, I don't, I'm not sure, you can't have it been nothing, like 3, 4, 5, whatever, but when I was younger, mobbing, like you would walk with your bros and go through like different and hoods and whatever.
179
And like, yo, yo, they coming through, they mobbing, ah, whatever.
180
That's a whole different scene.
181
But yeah, that's mobbing.
182
Mobbing is just like, it's a lot of people, right?
183
You don't always have to be on some aggressive, it can just be you chilling, but if there's a lot of y 'all, y 'all mobbing.
184
Y 'all was mobbing at McDonald's today?
185
Word y 'all wilding right now, I ain't gonna lie.
186
Like deep is the same thing, deep is just a lot of people, so it's like oh oh oh oh oh or
187
it's far away see that's a that's a double word so
188
so you could be like yo they was deep
189
which is the same thing as they was mobbing right it was a lot of them
190
but you could also say yo It's deep.
191
Yo, yo, I'm not going over there.
192
That's deep, bro.
193
You feel me?
194
Or like, oh, it's like, oh, like, you got a trip.
195
You're going somewhere three months from now, and it's the same thing.
196
Like, yo, that's...
197
That's old, that's deep bro, I'm out, damn, like three months, like, you feel me, it's far away.
198
You have dub in some states dub is like it's a W but over here dub is It's like, that's a dub.
199
Like, we not doing that.
200
If it's a dub, you're not doing that.
201
If it's hot right now, if you want me to do something that's hot, that's a dub, bro.
202
You see what I mean?
203
Oh, oh, oh.
204
Let me put hot too.
205
Hot is like
206
If it's hot like it's like you know saying are you
207
making it hot is like the chances of you getting caught is the chances of you getting caught are higher.
208
I have to say caught like that because when I say caught, you feel me, I can't.
209
Some of the people on the same, but the chances of getting caught are higher.
210
So if you making it hot right now, I'm going to back up.
211
I'm not going to be there because you making it hot.
212
You're going to get me caught up.
213
you NFS, which is, you know what I'm saying, no funny shit, it's the same as no cap.
214
No cap is a new one that everybody been doing, but that didn't come from here, from what I know of.
215
I think that came from Atlanta.
216
and that's an Atlanta thing, so no cab, but it's the same thing, it's no funny shit, you know what I'm saying, it's like dead ass, it's the same thing to be honest.
217
You have Ed, like yo, you being Ed right now, you being stupid.
218
Um good looks is like thank you so good looks bro.
219
Now you're saying or like somebody drop a phone
220
and I get back to the elbow you drop your phone bro Oh, bro.
221
Good looks bro.
222
Yeah, bro.
223
You feel me like that's just thank you.
224
You know what I'm saying?
225
I'm stupid stupid is like like stupid like just like six miles to be saying stupid we always say
226
that and that's I I mainly see that in basketball and playing basketball New York is very aggressive in basketball.
227
It don't always mean we want to fight.
228
But for the most part, when we on the court, like, we're not friends on that court, like, for the most part.
229
Not everybody's like that.
230
I'm not really like that in terms of like being aggressive.
231
I like to just win my games.
232
I like the game talk for me.
233
But you know what I'm saying, other people, they score a bucket, stupid, you feel me?
234
Or they'll shoot a three, stupid.
235
They'll just keep insulting you the whole game because basketball is a mental game too.
236
And I think any sport, you gotta get in your head and you can mess with your opponent.
237
So by saying these words or whatever during the game, You could mess up, you know what I'm saying?
238
Like, that's where it comes from, you stupid, you know what I'm saying?
239
Just trying to get in your head.
240
Static is like, you know what I'm saying?
241
You want static?
242
Like static is.. you want to be staticky already?
243
You feel me?
244
Like, it's just like, do they want to fight?
245
Do they want to start a problem?
246
Or are you feeling staticky?
247
Like, You know what I'm saying?
248
Are you aggressive right now, Aggie?
249
You know what I'm saying?
250
It's more of a confrontational term.
251
Like, "Yo, they want to study right now." I ain't gonna lie.
252
You got son, son is not that I...
253
A lot of people from other places, they be like, I be like, yo, relax, bro.
254
You know what I'm saying?
255
Son is like, you feel me?
256
If I call you, that's my son, no funny.
257
It could go two ways.
258
You know what I'm saying?
259
You could be disrespectful with it if you really try to.
260
But for the most part, it's a term of endearment.
261
If I say, yo, that's my son, bro.
262
You feel me?
263
You're not touching him.
264
That's my son.
265
That's somebody that I really rock with.
266
That's family at this point.
267
And I think somebody, an OG told me this a long time ago, low key.
268
I was playing ball in the park and he just like a little side story.
269
He told me that that comes from the youth not having their fathers in their life.
270
And since they didn't have their fathers in their life, everybody was just calling each other son because fuck it.
271
You know what I'm saying?
272
If my dad not going to be in my life, you feel me i might as well try to be you
273
know i'm saying your daddy without trying to be your dad
274
like we gonna be our own dad you know saying like between us
275
so yo what's good son like bro you know what it
276
is bro like i look out for you look out for me bro
277
and then there's a bar like i i call you son uh not because you mine
278
But because you shot something like that, like it's like it's not really a term of like being disrespectful.
279
It's more like, you know, I'm saying that's oh, I take care.
280
I'll take care.
281
You take care of me.
282
But it could you could make it.
283
That's my son.
284
- Yo, he a yo.
285
- I mean, but not really, I ain't gonna, I mean, it depends, I think you could.
286
Like, if you taking my swag or you taking my style, I'm going to be like, yo, that's my son.
287
Like, he really copied everything I do.
288
Like, you my seed, bro.
289
Oh my seed like you know saying like I'm letting you
290
but like you might you know saying it could it could
291
it could go both way I hope you keep it I hope you don't get lost with what I'm saying you
292
You have Fendi.
293
Fendi, I use that a lot.
294
You familiar with Fendi.
295
That's the same thing as Facts bro.
296
Fendi bro.
297
But I don't really say that.
298
I text that.
299
When you say it, it don't really sound the same.
300
Bye.
301
Okay, okay, so this one is hard to write out, but you don't say it the way you write it, okay?
302
So you have wilding, right?
303
So it's wilding, but you don't say wilding.
304
You just say, "He wilding." Wilding is the same thing as bugging, tripping, you wilding.
305
You're doing too much, you ODing.
306
It's really all the same thing, okay?
307
So y 'all say, "He wilding right now." Like, "He wilding, he doing too much." It's the same thing.
308
I think this is more universal but like we do be saying get off my dk like why you on my dk?
309
No funny st?
310
You can suck my dk.
311
You know what I'm saying?
312
That's fighting word.
313
That's fighting word.
314
But you know what I'm saying?
315
We do that a lot too.
316
That's a disrespectful term.
317
It's almost like static, like you know what I'm saying, it's like you ready for war, like what's up, like that's it.
318
But if somebody tell you to get off date, whatever, you know what I'm saying, you probably own them like OD,
319
like you taking something from them or you trying to be like them or you clowning them like for, I don't know for what reason, but you just say that like yo get off my,
320
you feel me, get off my eyes, you know what I'm saying?
321
Bozo Bozo is like you a lame corn you okay, so if I say you're a bozo I Corny, you lame. Are you good bro?
322
Like, are you good?
323
You good?
324
You good?
325
You good is like, like, you good could be, yo.
326
You can say you good a thousand different ways.
327
You can say you good.
328
Are you good bro?
329
Like, like, are you okay?
330
But then you can say, you good bro?
331
Like, are you good?
332
You feel me?
333
Like, are you good?
334
Like, that's, that's, that's, that's fighting words bro.
335
Like, I ain't gonna lie.
336
Like, that's staticky.
337
Like, if, if, if, if somebody tell you like, are you good?
338
Like, you feel me?
339
Like, they want problems.
340
They want to know if like, you okay up here because they about to smoke your shit.
341
Like, they about to, I ain't gonna lie.
342
So it's, it's, it's, it's, it's different, different ways of saying it.
343
Different ways of saying it.
344
Different ways of receiving it what you said.
345
Um say less on it could same thing with say less is two ways you could say like yo, bro I'm about to put you on to this job whatever
346
you might get paid for the cash hour Whatever you'd be
347
like what say less like that's something good like oh say less.
348
We don't even talk too much
349
But then like
350
but like it could also be like you know saying like
351
you about to get like it's not a confirmation Like
352
if you are if you beefing with me
353
and you say you about to do something to me I'm like I bet say less to me like no more talking.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
