mark dublin “ Wallahi “ and “ Bucktee” are Arabic & Somali respectively, not Caribbean. Stop trying to claim all Toronto lingo for one place, it’s multicultural.
Me: Hey friend the city (or area) is bait right now, right? Bro: Shut up bro , there's still alot going on. {Bait means there's bayrrre boydem } Bait means theres alot of cops/ it's sketchy to be out
@@Bettereveryday003 No, we didn’t copy it from the Uk. In Toronto we have a similar proportion of Jamaican immigrants in the 70s come here and our youth started borrowing words. Now our slang has somali, Carribean and arab influences
This is not Toronto slang, this is teenager slang. I don't know any 30 year olds that talk like that, and if they do, then they are from the ghetto and haven't moved up yet. We all talked like this in our teens, but it's time to grow up and talk normally ahlie?
This is category of slang is due to the Canadian rap/hip hop industry. Canadian rap/hip hoppers vary in a range in ethnicity and they add their ethnicity, their identity, who they are in their music. Nationality wise, slang should be more like, please, thank you, sorry - words as such should be turned into a slang. Words such as, hoser, clicks, home milk, Jesus Murphy, mickey, Timmies, The6 and the list goes on are Canadian slang.
@Medicinal Blood the video was about slang becoming popular but not one person she asked except two black guys knew what the words meant. To me this newscast was a bit racist
@@michaelouimet505 she wasn't being racist. He had absolutely no interest on the conversation. He kept replying very fast & even answered before she asked about the last few words so she caught on to it. Her goal was to teach the meaning to people who dont know but he almost seemed bothered by the fact that she asked a grown man like him those irrelevant questions. That was her way of cutting the conversation short & to leave him in a positive vibe because she felt like she wasted his time asking childish questions instead of asking questions about real issues like a real news channel would.
Iwill Bismallah your Door No, it’s cuz of ethnic Blacks in Toronto like Jamaican & somalis. europe is boring and full of white people, why do you think they left to come to north America?
walahi, you should've gotten scooped and should've went to the streets of Toronto where it be more corrupt fam cuz alie that's where the gangs and slang are still.
I'm a Muslim but let's be honest if you are from a multicultural hood with many different religions there are a lot of non-muslims who use wallahi as in I swear, so technically it could be considered slang since they are not using it religiously.
@@torink8229 No it’s not loool, people in America say “fam” all the time, it’s literally just short for “family” which you use for relatives & friends. Now if they were to specifically address the local pronunciation like “fomlaaaaay” or something, that would be specific
Foreigners coming to Toronto are speaking their own language so Canadians can't understand them. And throw wallahi in there just for a little islamification
Born here in 1968….never heard any of these “words”, because they’re not words, just lazy slang….seems like it’s West Indian and Caribbean slang, not Toronto slang….probably most heard in Scarborough and Brampton.
we been sayn that, uk people always think we trying sound like, do ur research on tdot we been speakn like dis, we have similar immigration and cultural influences
Kevin Boman Canada is literally the child of the uk. I never said that these slang terms aren’t used in Canada - ofc they are. However ‘mans’ and ‘ting’ originated in Britain, just like the primary language of Canada, English.
how do you know that? we been talking like this not because of u but our urban cities are the same immigrational influence. basically mans from yawd, africans, somalian and middle east
Kevin Boman America also has a Jamaican immigrant population but they don’t say ‘ting’ etc. These slang terms are not Jamaican and they didn’t originate in Jamaica, they still originated in the lower-class, impoverished areas of the UK. These areas have a mixture of white, black and other groups. My point is, these terms originated in the lower class areas of the U.K. and have now spread to other countries. Drake (Canada’s biggest rap star) only started saying these terms after he became aquatinted with Skepta and other british grime artists.
Wait a minute. This isn't Canadian slang. This way of speaking originated from Jamaica. My own grandparents spoke this way and the people of the island. However, this way of speaking has been embraced in the UK for around 40 years. All the wannabe Jamaican youth have been using those terms long before Canada. Stop claiming!
Imagine thinking wallahi is slang
Eden Hazard It is
I hear white kids say it a lot here, don't think they know what it means
its a slippy slope to non muslims it is but to somalis and other muslims it is not but since walahi ending with I is something somali youth made it popular and slang in toronto.
walahi - perdulaahi
serge lefleur ur dumb
Did they just say Wallahi is slang?
😂😂😂
MERK Instinct right 😂😂😂😂😂
yeah unfortunately it is. they say it like “on god”
@@thatboyru wallahi does mean something along the lines of 'I swear towards God '.
MERK Instinct ....because of Toronto Somalis 😂
Bucktee 😂😂😂😂
Also, a hijabi girl saying “Mans wants to see you, fam!” Really???? 🤦🏽♂️🤣
“Have you ever heard of ‘bucktee?’” BROOO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I just love that this is a segment, I use some Toronto slang but I ain’t 1000% bare Toronto man styll 😂
Alish ahlieeeeee
So Toronto slangs are what ppl in most the Caribbean talk everyday day lol
(mark dublin)...and have been using for decades.😆
mark dublin “ Wallahi “ and “ Bucktee” are Arabic & Somali respectively, not Caribbean.
Stop trying to claim all Toronto lingo for one place, it’s multicultural.
Exactly
Samuel Appiah u haven’t been to the Caribbean have u
Samuel Appiah and I never claim all but most of it are Caribbean day to to talking
Styll does not mean agreement. Ahlie is in agreement.. styll is just a period for a sentence
@Nubiamancy same thing lol, either way styll doesn't mean agreemeant
Me: Yo fam the ends is bait ahlieeeee?
Bro: Nize it bro, nuff tings a gwan styll
Translation pls! I like how it sounds.
Me: Hey friend the city (or area) is bait right now, right?
Bro: Shut up bro , there's still alot going on.
{Bait means there's bayrrre boydem } Bait means theres alot of cops/ it's sketchy to be out
Kings and Queens 😂😂😂😂😂
Endz is London slang
Waste yute
That's what you are.. " A Ting " 😂😂😂🙌🏽
Trailer park trash across Canada triggered in the comments.
They don't like degenerates
50% of people that live in Toronto from here. It's not slang it's people speaking their own language
Lol facts.
No, it’s not. It’s an emerging accent close to London,England’s ‘Multicultural London english’... this phenomenon is happening in Toronto
@@torink8229 trust me, they copy our slang and act like they created it 💀
This is just embarrassing
What about the Leafs?

Almost No interviewee knows any of these lol!!!
Slangs that nobody knows
You can’t go asking people in their 40s
@D 416 the deep suburb white ppl
@@joes.2331 oh trust me they know
I've been using some of that slang for almost 20 years I'm originally from Toronto
Ikr lol these news channels be so out of touch wit the real community
Everyone from Toronto knows that the second "t" is silent, yet she pronounced it with a hard t in the end...
That’s so irrelevant to this video styll
shorty ain't really from the ends ahlie?? 😂
I love how the first one she asks is “bucktee” hahahaha dying
New? Toronto’s slang is basically all Southwestern Ontario slang, it’s a Provincial ting at this Point.
Adam Al The slang started in Toronto , the rest of Ontario just copy us....
Samuel Appiah The English Britain started the rest of the 50 other countries just copy them.
Adam Al even in inner city Winnipeg we have our own language which outsiders think is different, mostly influenced by Indigenous people
@@Bettereveryday003 it's Caribbean
@@Bettereveryday003 No, we didn’t copy it from the Uk. In Toronto we have a similar proportion of Jamaican immigrants in the 70s come here and our youth started borrowing words. Now our slang has somali, Carribean and arab influences
Slang comes and slang goes with the times ask any beatnic lol
This reporter needs to spend a week in Brampton, then she'll know everything down pat.
Brampton isn’t Toronto
Brampton 💀💀
Toronto is like 80% Asian
And 100% Jamaican.
Cringe. Only styll is common at all, and that isn't "new" in the slightest.
What?? I hear mans on a daily
Jarrett Wilfred yeah i guess that one too, among a particular subset of people
This is similar to The British especially when it comes Jamaica to the Londoners, with a little bit of Nigerian. U get me bruh ani’t net.🐚
And the point of that was......?
to educate boomers that every generation makes their own slang
Such a highly important news I see!
I was thinking same thing!!!
"I got shot in the 6" is really taking off
Sounds like a language called "Unemployed"
Oh Lord 😑🤦🏾♂️
Looool
Do any of these slang professors achieve academic sucess ?
This shows how soft Toronto really is.... Stillllll
Please stop
Bruh look who they interviewed tho still
marcus fraser who
Just quarantine it in Toronto please.
I knew I shouldn’t have clicked on this video. What a waste of 2:56 minutes.
Wallahi isn't slang.. wallahi which means "I swear to God"
Ye ong
Ting can mean girl , ting can mean the moshine , the heater the TING
This is not Toronto slang, this is teenager slang. I don't know any 30 year olds that talk like that, and if they do, then they are from the ghetto and haven't moved up yet. We all talked like this in our teens, but it's time to grow up and talk normally ahlie?
Here before this becomes a meme
Stairway to Seven it already is
They forgot to say EZE it at the end, she gotta put some respec!! on da slang cuzzo 😂😂😂
she forgot battri
How about Toronto swearing and vulgarity. For that matter Canada. It’s a shocker up here if you come from the Deep South
The Toronto Roadman accent is the pinnacle of all accents. It really makes me want to visit Toronto
Wallahi literally means swear to God in Arabic 😂 it does NOT mean anything else in any other language/dialect
Have you heard of “You people” out on the streets?
2:24 is the reason why they talk like this.

What is a ting? ... You, you're a ting, a good ting doe😭
Everyone follows JAMAICA!
Wondering if Daddy snow would pass the survey test and if Toronto kids would accept him as a sort of Godfather figure
Lol nowadays i didnt know that nonmuslims are saying wallahi
This is hilarious. Why city TV? Big Up Cardi. Smh lol!! A good Ting!!
Omfg I’m cringing so hard it hurts
Slangs come from UK
Ty Vann Bullcrap, the came from Jamaica, arabic, and somali, none of the worst mentioned here were invented in uk
@@sjappiyah4071 well they sure are used by UK folks
Ty Vann So ? That doesn’t mean it came from uk just cause it’s used there.
Also nobody uses bucktee in Uk... stop talking
@@sjappiyah4071 well they use them. Let's not go back in history bucktee
Ty Vann “ Well they use them” isn’t an argument you gerber
What does she mean when she says " I believed that's a point for you not to know what they mean" when she's talking to the guy at the end?

I thought Eh, Double Double, sorry, basically sounding like the late great Norm Macdonald and Jim Carrey
Most dudes just talk like that cause they pick it up from europeons i noticed it cause i listen to london rappers.
Iwill Bismallah your Door No, it’s cuz of ethnic Blacks in Toronto like Jamaican & somalis. europe is boring and full of white people, why do you think they left to come to north America?
Walahi is not slang. It’s Arabic and used across the Islamic world. Do your research before you offend billions with your lazy reporting.
I went to a high school in the GTA, and I’ve heard all of it. It’s not just people inside of Toronto it’s all around Toronto too lol
Hard-hitting stuff.
walahi, you should've gotten scooped and should've went to the streets of Toronto where it be more corrupt fam cuz alie that's where the gangs and slang are still.
Wallahi is not slang! 🤣🤣🤣
Its jamaican pat-woh.
No there’s no way citynews actually did this live😭 “Mans ting ahilie Wallahi”
Mia… is that you?!
wallahi is the interviewer trying to make up her own cultural slang and say that it's part of the city's.
Nah the amount of times ive heard it said she definetly not making it up. Big thing in sauga especially around city center
@@cassandras4750 It's used alot but still not a slang.
She pronounced Ahlie like Ally LOOOL
Almost sounds like a Mexican American accent
She didnt even ask about Walahi. Its the popular one . And by the way wallahi is not a slang . Its a word.
Most Muslim countries or Arab speakers use that word, not sure it can be called a Toronto slang
WORLD WIDE SPOT LIGHT!!! Dem tings der !!
Look who shes asking smhhh
I'm a Muslim but let's be honest if you are from a multicultural hood with many different religions there are a lot of non-muslims who use wallahi as in I swear, so technically it could be considered slang since they are not using it religiously.
Who ever pitched this, and then agreed to this needs to go and reevaluate the importance/relevance of this segment *sigh*
Yes and they used to say Ebonics would catch on. It’s just trendy for this generation.
“Ting” has been going on for decades now. Jebus!
And ting is something Trinidadians say since time in memorium
@@EmpressAshe Canadian Ebonics
Just British slang and wallahi really 🤦🏾♂️
Nyeahhh ehhh🍁
Jamaica
I would much prefer this didn't exist.
😂 100
2:36 why wouldnt he know what they mean, and why is that the point?
I was expecting “Fam” to be the famous slang and mentioned in the video😒
Akash Sharma “ Fam” is not specific to Toronto even, so it’s better she didn’t include it
Samuel Appiah oh ok... I hear that a lot of time in Toronto lol that’s why saying.
@@sjappiyah4071 It’s specific to London and Toronto. So yes, it is actually.
@@torink8229 No it’s not loool, people in America say “fam” all the time, it’s literally just short for “family” which you use for relatives & friends.

What!!! So how popular are those words...when to me only a certain few are aware...
if it's on the news, it's over bruh
N y did the 2 Manz have to expose.
Wallahi 😂 it’s not slang it’s Somali or more generally Arabic.
Its only Arabic
It's not somali its Arabic.
It is a Somali version of an Arabic word. Like how we say Abdullahi instead of Abdullah, we say wallahi instead of wallah
@@idontwanttohearitidont4792 I'm Somali and wallahi is an Arabic word not Somalis.
Jamaicans is where they get from stop the fruad.. They trying to artificially make a culture which is based off the yard slang
I have no slangs.
Loool you gonna talking about street slang on the news...its pretty cringe. And who says nize it
Very late on this news segment guys...
Chopped
Thats not really "Toronto" slang, slang are words that occur naturally within an area that are understood by those people.
This is not going to catch on LOL
Maybe among non-Whites?
These are not new slang, and isn’t Wallahi Somalian?
And can be said to be arabic too.
It’s Arabic
@@xixs6907 It is also a word in somali.
Nope it’s Arabic for I swear to god
yusuf I just know because all the Somali kids in high school “Wallahi give me deuces on dem bogies”

Toronto slang, maybe. More like black hoser, especially the accent.
