Slang Word of the Week


» Read similar stories filed under:

Are you over thirty? Are you nerdy, uncool, or simply suburban? You can "front a mad vocabulary" with my slang word of the week. Each week I will post a new word along with its definition and a sample sentence. You will be "talking street" in mere weeks. Give it a try... use your new word in a sentence and post it here.

This weeks word is:
DIME OUT: [fr. longtime cost of pay-telephone (booth) call, usually anonymous] 1. to inform on, tell on, expose "My sister DIMED me OUT for drinking from the carton" - syn. DROP A DIME, SQUEAL, BLOW THE WHISTLE, TATTLE

Sample Sentence: "You drive way to fast. I had to DIME you OUT." (see attachment - the flashcard has a drawing of a young boy talking to his school bus driver)
