Our bros in Krimson&Kreme may rebuke this but you KNOW that Philly originated 'Yo!' as a word! Oh yeah, isn't that where their National HQ is located?

Philly has much of its own slang.
Bul - synonymous with boy. The pronunciation is different than the spelling. The 'L' is soft and you really have to hear it for yourself.
Jawn - synonymous with girl.
Ackie (ack for short) - pronounced as if you were saying the name Akhbar. It's used the same as bul i.e. What up Ack?
I really feel like I'm forgetting some good ones. Philly peeps, help me out.
