Latest Slangs
If you've been to Sierra Leone you'll probably know its people excel in slangs and "back talk". All in good humor of course. Mostly. To my surprise in just a couple of months since i was here there is a whole new batch of them. Chief of which is "man dem no gladdy oh" which translates directly to "we are not happy".. this is used almost light heartedly. There's also "everyday you jus dae change clos en spray perfume, you nor dae wass" which directly translates to "everyday you wear new clothes and spray perfume but you don't take a shower". Lastly, "una feel say nar una papa geh yah? Una go f**k off na ya"... Don't ask.
