Title Revision: December 26, 2019 (Previous title: Links To Ten Pancocojams Posts About The Meanings Of Various Vernacular Words Or Phrases)
This pancocojams posts provides hyperlinks to ten pancocojams posts about the meanings of various vernacular words or phrases.
These is a subset of posts on word meanings that I published on this pancocojams blog from September 6, 2011 to Feb. 3, 2014. Additional posts on this subject will be published periodically.
Most of the meanings for these words are from African American Vernacular English. One of these words (given as post #3 below) is from Nigerian culture and one of these posts is from Bahamian (Caribbean) culture.
Also, two of these posts are part of two part series. The link to Part II of those series is given in the first post of that series.
I selected these examples based on my personal preferences and/or what I consider to be their cultural importance.
