Ive heard about chavs many times, but Its not very clear what it is to me just yet.

First I thought a chav was a social climber who is tacky, because I hear all the time people saying that Katie Price and Wayne Royne are chavs.

But its certainly not just only that, since i hear people describing many working class people as chavs.

I also have the impression that chav is the adjective that people often use to describe a delinquent.

Its also often used to describe people that like wearing those hideous Burberry head to toe outfits, and Lacoste outfits as well.

As you could notice Im very confused about it. So....

1st question: What is ( in few words ) a chav?

2nd question: Are chavs, scallies and hoodies all the same thing?

Thanks in advance
