T.I. to English Translator


Photo: Metromix

I saw this list on another site. Personally, I don’t have any problems understanding T.I. when he speaks. I love his accent. Besides that, he’s very articulate when he wants to be. :)

Anyway, in honor of T.I.’s sixth studio album Paper Trail, which drops tomorrow, someone decided to translate a list of words from T.I.’s songs.

According to pre-sales estimates: first week sales of Paper Trail will come close to — or beat Lil’ Wayne’s sales this year:

At = out

Am at = ‘I’m out’

Kane = King

Owl = ‘all’ or ‘I’ll’

Giyyuh = ‘give you’

Sur-ruh = sorry

Wur-ruh = worry

Own = on

W’own = want

C’owl = call or called

Cuppa = Couple

Diz eye = desire

Steel = still

Rim muh = remember

Murrah crimuh = Merry Christmas



Bro = broke

Ha = high

Gah
= got to, or gotta

Chir-ren = children

Keeds = kids

Ye’en = You ain’t or you don’t

We’en = We ain’t

E’en = even

Ah = I

Ah’m sane = ‘I’m saying’

Ay = ‘hey’ or ‘ain’t’

Ay ya = air

Hey ya = here

Day ya = there

Dat or duh = ‘that’ or ‘the’

Drah = drop

Drah dat = ‘drop that’

Quat = quiet

Luh da = ‘love the’

Tyrone or Trone = short for ‘Patron’

La home = ‘little homie’ or ‘little friend’

In a minute = ‘later’ or ’see you later’

You own no = ‘you don’t know’

Gimme dat noise = ‘be quiet’
