Chinuk Wawa in the news: Washington state slang
I guess I’ve heard all of these, not always realizing they’re special Warshington Talk!
Turn off your ad blocker & go read this fun regional-interest article in the Tri-City Herald:
Seven slang terms all Washingtonians should know: From ‘pre-funk’ to ‘sunbreak’ to ‘Jojos’
There’s even a special section in it discussing Chinook Jargon!
Don’t like to getting sucked into reading an article then to find out I have to subscribe to some regional paper. This is terrible

Bummer! I’m surprised. I was able to read the whole thing for free.
