| Summary: | Since the days of slavery, when the conversations of black slaves served as the classic example of a secret tongue, a kind of "home talk" in the sense that it was not meant for listeners beyond the nest, to the 1980s and '90s and the expressions of rap and hip-hop, the evolution of African-American slang from private to public language has irrevocably influenced American culture and speech. Illuminating this vibrant language, Juba to Jive offers a comprehensive collection of terms, from the oldest to the most modern, as well as clear straightforward definitions of words, phrases, and expressions, with many examples in context; approximate date of each term's arrival into the language; modifications of meanings as the terms entered the mainstream; cross-references to similar terms; linguistic roots, from onomatopoetic sources to rhyming jargon; and shifts in word forms and grammatical usage Juba to Jive is the only up-to-date record of this rich, ever-evolving language born in the African-American community and permeating every aspect of our culture |

| adam_text | The definitive dictionary
of African-American contributions
to American English
From words and phrases more than
200
years old to the latest expressions
of rap and hip hop,
Juba

vibrant forms of expression in American society. It covers the four areas
of African-American slang: early rural Southern slang, which started
during slavery; the sinner-man/black musician period between
1900
and
1960;
the street slang out of which rap and hip hop emerged; and
working-class language. The book features:
Clear, straightforward definitions of thousands of
words, phrase s, and expressions
Approximate date of arrival into the language
Modifications of meanings as the word or phrase
entered the mainstream
Cross-references
то
similar terms
Linguistic roots, from onomatopoetic sources to
rhyming jargon
Shifts in word forms and grammatical usage
Ą

Based on scholarly investigations and common usage,
Juha
to Jive
spotlights a rich, ever-evolving language, born in the African-American
community and permeating every aspect of our culture.
