Delightful Campus Lingos

This post is a total TP (Time Pass!).  Completely delectable are college lingo usages in various circumstances.  So maccha (pal or buddy) like an enthu cutlet (someone filled with enthusiasm) chumma (just like that) I am listing the most popular ones. So “don’t take tension” and simply chillax (calm down n relax) and read the basic fundas (fundamentals) of campus dialect.

Address the principal as princi, professors as profs, lab assistant as labass and freshers as freshee. Yep the students can be categorized as either a fatso ( fat guy),  despo (a desperate guy), punter (brilliant guy), weirdo(weird guy), sidey (strange guy), nerd (foolish guy), stud(really cool guy), mugga (mug pot), keeda (book worm), jhel(some one you can’t tolerate), bond(oversmart guy) and dhasoo(excellent guy). If you are a Fucchu(first year bacchus) you will invariably be the bakras (scape goats), during ragging the seniors will “screw you”  (take to task). By the end of the first internal you will horn your skills in “fudging or cheping” (copying).  Soon you will bunk (skip classes) and share a “by two” (a glass of beverage split in 2 parts) tea or coffee at the canteen. The boys will go on “fag or sutta”(smoke) breaks, watch chicks (girls) and try to pataofy (impress) some babes(hot girls). Project an image of a cool dude (awesome guy), by often saying “chill man” (relax man) or “don’t take tension” (be tension free) to your buddies (friends). Boss you often hear a girl saying that the boy is a sample (one of a kind) or you hear a boy saying that the girl is an item(girlfriend). Junta (large group of students) always mass bunks (absents) a class. Annual days always rocks (best times) and classes always sucks (bore).

 You generally slog (work hard) and do night outs (staying up whole night) before the exam and mug (by heart) all the boring farts (bullshit). This is when every student “crib maarofies”(cribs) and then without understanding “ratta maarofies” (by hearts verbatim) . In the fight (struggle) of preparing for exams we often hear the student say “give up maar diya” or “ditch maar diya” (gave up). If the paper is too tough then its full “KLPD” (used to denote frustration) and if the paper is nightmarish then it’s “KLPRR” (RR stands for Road Roller, I don’t know if I should use the word stand here).  Dissatisfaction is vented out using swear words like “f***” that or “f*** this” or just plain simple “f***”. When you flunk (fail) you take a suppli (supplementary). In labs you can get “jacked up” (wrecked) during viva. Then if the external asks difficult questions you say “woh sathiya gaya” (he has gone crazy) and just hope he “buzzes off” (goes off).

There are “hazaar” (thousands) such “bindaas” (care a damn) words used in campuses all over India. Before I leave I would request that if more such lingos “chamkaos” (shines) in your “dimaag/ bheja” (brains) please "gyan baatofy"(share your knowledge".
