NYC/NNJ slang vs Philly/SNJ slang

[UberEatsDriver]

does Jersey use slang that New Yorkers and Philly dudes can’t relate to or does southern Jersey use Philly slang and Northern NJ use NY slang.

Does anyone in Newark say “Son” and “B” a lot?

Seen a video of a Newark dude using old nyc slang saying “word is bond”!

 

[AB Ziggy]

We don't use "word is bond". Dudes that use that phrase spend too much time in NY circles than in Jersey.

Most people just use the universal cliche slang words (that always stay the same)
plus whatever words are popular in their hood or projects (changes every 2 years).

don't know about modern slang......but Jersey...and by Jersey I mean Newark......used to exist in its own world and have its own slang


STIFE=skinny as in crackhead skinny
HIKE= what other places call ranking, snapping ,jonin on somebody
SHOOTING ME PRISM= eyeballing somebody like you want problems

Never heard those terms outside of Jersey....in fact, the guy who played Bodie on the Wire..snuck in "stife" in his dialogue during a scene on that show and it made me smile. He's from Newark.

I would say they sneak in the word “son” in their slang also. I’ve heard enough Jersey dudes use it.
