How's the crack means How's it going? What's poppin? And the garage is the garage bin means trashcan. They talk really fast
It's kind of funny because they do speak English, but they speak their own version of English. My advice would be to learn the slang, because once you hear the slang, then you kind of can connect the dots. I mean, it's not impossible to understand what they're saying, but some of them is what I call mush mouth speakers. And so they just kind of mesh all their words together, and they talk really quickly. And I was able to understand even those because you get a lot of them. But learn the slang. Don't have time on this video to tell you the slang, but I would say learn the slang and you'll understand the people.
Just a couple words that they use. Like the first one that comes to mind is crack. They'll be like, um, what's the crack? Come on over and we'll have the crack with you. And when I first heard that, I thought they meant like drugs. And so I was like, oh, I'm okay, thanks. But no, crack is like, have like a good time or a good laugh or just like talk with you, have some fun. And so they're just asking what's up? How's it going? Are you having fun? Come on over. We'll have a good time.
