Akshually, most of the slang is from British/French/Spanish origins. The whole "southern dialect" which includes southern blacks, is mostly from Engish accents and dialects.
Study linquistics and you'll find how a surprising large amount of it is from the Brits. Even country, blues, bluegrass, rock and roll, jazz are all derivatives of English/Irish music.


That is certainly interesting, and I respect your knowledge on this point. Still, I don't think white kids are mainstreaming "huzz" and "bro" because of the cool factor they associate with the British.


Bro is from 16th Century England. Was used among British immigrants as "braugh" until about the 1800s when slaves picked up on the word and would pronounce it more "bruh" or "brer".
Surfer's in the 1950s started using it more BRO hard O.


Do you have a link for this or even some book I can look through?

All I see are that surfers picked it up in the 70s and thst it came from African American culture.

I don’t recall anyone on "Gidget" for instance saying the word "bro."


You have got to be kidding right?

The whole Surfer and hot rod counter part Ho-Daddy culture came about in the 1950s, Frankie Avalon movies, etc. You must be a zoomer who never even saw boomer reminiscent movies like American Graffiti.
