But how did you get that from: "This blud fr ong"?

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Blud is, I think, british slang for guy. Fr means for real, ong means on god.

Bud is, I don't know what Blud is.

Blud is pseudo-Jamaican slang used by annoying teenagers who want to pretend they are in gangs. Similar to when Americans who were into rap called each other "G". The phrase originates from the Jamaican patois phrase blud clot.

Blud was very commonly used by teens in London in the 90s and 2000s - not just gangsta wannabes. Although it was annoying. Blud/blood clot/clart was less commonly used by white people in my experience but is still used by black people of Jamaican decent. You see it at protests even now:

How does "it's quite shocking" come out of that? Seems a bit far fetched.

"on god's life I swear it"

Quite the shocking statement.

I read ong as a typo of omg, maybe I'm old now tho. But the 3 dead skulls suggests a high level of being made dead by whatever the original comment was, which combined could be translated into 'quite shocking' among other various meanings

fr ong is a strong intensifier

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I think the "shocking" part is communicated moreso by the sentence as a whole
