🇬🇧 Slang from United Kingdom

A laid-back way of saying 'what's up?' or 'what's going on?'. It comes from Jamaican Patois and you'll hear it all over London.

Means 'stop that', 'leave it' or 'forget about it'. People often cut it down to just 'low it'.

Short for 'brother', but you say it to any mate or bloke, related or not. A bit like calling someone 'mate'.

Your group of mates, usually the lads you roll with. Basically your crew.

When something's peak, it's bad luck or just plain awful, like 'that's rough'. Confusingly, in some parts of the UK people use it to mean the opposite, that something's good.

Means loads of, or a lot of something. It also works like 'really' or 'very' to crank up whatever you're saying.

Used when someone is really fit or good-looking. You can also say it about anything that's really good, and about food it means it's proper tasty.

Innit is short for 'isn't it', and you stick it on the end of a sentence to get someone to agree or just to add emphasis. It works after pretty much anything, not only 'is' sentences.

Bait means something is way too obvious, usually in a cringey or annoying way. If you're being bait, everyone can see what you're up to.

Your ends is your local area, the neighbourhood you grew up in or where you're from. People rep their ends with a lot of pride.

Creps are trainers, basically any sneakers, especially nice ones you care about.

Garms are your clothes or the outfit you've got on. It comes from the word 'garments'.
