My 7yo is just starting to learn/notice slang at her school (functionally only child as bro is 25) and she is fascinated with “Ayo” which she doesn’t use herself but talks about how everyone else uses it (which seems to be like “hey” or “yo” from back in my day). It is pretty funny.

My 7yo is just starting to learn/notice slang at her school (functionally only child as bro is 25) and she is fascinated with “Ayo” which she doesn’t use herself but talks about how everyone else uses it (which seems to be like “hey” or “yo” from back in my day). It is pretty funny.
But her best personal slang ever was the three months when she pronounced chimpanzee as something that for all the world sounded like Joe Pesci. We had a little toy joe pesci and we visited the joe pescis at lincoln park zoo and were joe pescis better or were gorillas better? Literally the best. She was 2.
I am dead at this 🙈
I literally had to like hold my breath to not laugh at this every single time and ruin it.
I did not realize Ayo was a current slang. Kid came home from school or daycare with that last year (we assumed it was slurred something...I thought his best friend at school was named Feel for uh...too long before we realized kid is actually Theo. good times)
I want to know if "Ayo" sounds the same as the "Hey-o!!" they say in "Always Sunny" or if it's a modification. Side note; I knew a guy named Ayo in my 20's so this makes me think of him. I wonder what he makes of his name being slang.
It is like hey yo but with less h at the top and a little more glide together (if you listen to the tyler the creator version of you’re a mean one mr grinch, there’s an example there)
