Konnichiwa-gwan

Japanese mixed with Jamaican slang. Derived from 'Konnichiwa' which is a basic Japanese greeting, and 'wagwan'; a form of 'what's going on?' in West Indian Jamaican dialect. Increasing vast popularity in the streets of Central London. Literally implied as 'Hello, what's going on??'

Me: Konnichiwa-gwan
Them: I'm cool thanks / I fine thanks
