a.  Never had I heard the term "prop" or "props"

b.  Recently, this slang term "prop" has come into vogue.

c.  Why?

d.  Is this a new term?....

e.  I thought to myself....

The term prop must have originated long ago, even though I knew not what it meant.

 

My guess is that it must be sort of a black-culture term that has now been adopted outside black culture, into the mainstream.

 

Here's what I'm talkin' 'bout....

 

 

You got the slang word PROPS here, for sure, at least twice.

 

Do you enjoy using the word, PROPS?

 

If so....then.....

PROPS to you!

 

Personally, I prefer the way they talk at Oxford and Cambridge.

Not too many guys at Oxford that can Jive Talk, is my guess.

 

What about you?

 

Do YOU speak Jive?

Note:  Love this scene.  Most great linguistics researchers do.....

 

Someday, I, too, will speak JIVE....

Dematerialized?

 

Fooled by sleight of hand?

 

With inflation and vowels  costing so much in Thailand  people  are more and more opting for words that have as few of them as possible.
