Cuz - ^ Par - Insult. "He's parring me" Spice - Beautiful woman Bait Ting - A woman that has been around and is know to many men. Bare - Alot Bennin' up - Laughing alot Gassin' - Someone chatting **** is "gassing". Not to be confused with "Getting gassed" which means getting Hype basically. Treck - Used to mean "cbf". "Come shopping with me". "Nope. That's a treck" Off the top of my head. The dictionary of London/Young Leon ![]() Swag was originally another word for sh*t

..I don't really know any Suffolk slang words as such because I'm not from here but they do have an expression that a few people say, which is 'on the huh' which I think means lopsided or something and people with Suffolk accents tent to always pronounce 'u' as 'oooo' so humour is said as hoomer etc...it's more the way the words are pronounced ...I'm going to the shop/I'm going to the sharp....
