We hea!

Although in my experience that's mostly Toronto road slang. Also very popular in London, England. Interesting how Islamic expressions are becoming imbedded into our vocabulary as a society, I have not seen it happen before.

We don’t, it’s a mix of Caribbean (primary influence), African , UK and American slang words.

Lived in Toronto for 10 years & it’s shocking how many white people still speak in patois and act like it’s normal. It’s not a slight inflection, it’s a really committed bit

Yes this is real, though I don't know anyone that actually speaks like this. I'd be embarrassed if someone was talking to me like that - I have heard it from strangers and it's very cringy.
