Down south!!

You greet people as "folk"...it is the new "dawg" (i.e. What up, folk?)

In Fla..."eastin" is to look at someone wrong also known as shootin units. (Think Khia..."with a unit on my face so mean")

A "dunk" is a box Chevy.

In South Fla, "ackie" is short for awkward.

Also, people are referred to as "pimpin" (What up, pimpin?)

Most other FL slang derives from other languages like patois, Creole, and Spanish.

As for GA slang, there is a LOT it just escapes me right now.
