Do you, or does anyone you know, talk "jive?" I'm interested in finding out about the lingo and compiling a collection of "jive talk" words and phrases and their translations. (For those who don't know, jive is a slang spoken by some American Blacks; e.g. "honkey" = "white person.") I'd appreciate anything that anyone can contribute on the subject, including corrections to anything that was wrong in the first paragraph above. Please feel free to send me mail, write me a letter, call me up, or reply in *net.nlang* -- not here in net.misc. Thanks a lot. --------------------- Dan Solis {mit-eddie, ihnp4!inmet, wjh12, cca} !mirror!dan Mirror Systems, Inc. 2067 Massachusetts Ave. Cambridge, MA 02140 (617) 661-7256
