Future simple

We will go over 32 highly requested slang words and  phrases you may have heard spoken among Black people.

The comparative

These words are used for the sole purpose of better understanding your favorite Black movies and musical artists.

We highly recommend that you do not use these words in daily conversation,

especially when you're conversing with Black people.

But, you can enjoy learning Ebonics and improve your understanding of Black speech

and learn more about Black culture with this lesson.

I hope this will be a stepping stone into learning more about Black culture.

Today's phrase is: poo-poo, five-oh, Jakes.

Now, basically these words mean just one meaning: policemen.

Very simple and plain, don't need much information other than that.

So, as we jump to the conversational examples.

Yo! Dude… Slow down the car. Five-Oh is sitting right there.

Good looking out, I don’t need the Poo-Poo stealing my lunch money.

Whats Up Playa…. Keep your eyes out for the Jakes.

First example, "Yo, dude," meaning these boys were rolling in a car and he's hollering at his boy, "Yo, dude."

"Slow the car down. The policeman is sitting right there."

And he said, "Woah! Good looking out," meaning, "Oh, thank you, man, for keeping your eyes open.

I don't want the poo-poo to be giving   me no ticket and taking my money."

Example number two, "What up Playa. Yo, keep your eyes out for the Jakes."

Very simple, 'cause he's just telling his boy to keep your eyes open for five-oh around.

Until next time, when I hit you up with more Ebonics.
