I would like to know if there is an equivalent to the word "bae". The honies like it when I'm down with new slang words.


Off the top of my head, all the universal (nation-wide as far as Nigeria is concerned) slangs that could replace "bae" are just Nigerian pronounciations of words you already know. Like I could pronounce "baby" with the Nigerian broken English accent. The closest I can get is a slang equivalent to "chick", meaning girls can't use it on guys but guys can use it on girls.

Slang 6 - "Cocolet" (Pronounced as spelt)

English Equivalent - "Chick"

Sample - "I met some cocolets at the mall"

EDIT: you can also use "Babylets" and "Mamalets". Sexiest when used in rapid succession. Call her your cocolet, your babylet, your mamalet (don't add "and", because all 3 mean the same thing)

 

The interesting thing about this slang is it was coined by one of our musicians, and became so widespread that everyone uses it now. He actually formed a series of slangs around the word "coco". Maybe I'll list them all out, but that will require posting some of his lyrics so you can get the context, because those slangs didn't exist before he sang songs that introduced the slangs.
