A style of speaking that involves confusing the listener with quickly spoken syllables and many consonant sounds in a row. Could be done while rapping.

Refers to a voicemail service by phonewire.com for your pager or cellphone that translates all new voice messages to readable text that show up on your wireless screen.

"Hit me up later or drop a phonetic.", "I got her phonetics on my two-way, but I ain't calling her tonight.", or "Phonetic me those directions to your crib, alright?"
