Verniggular

Slang terms that originate in the black community but make it into general usage, especially among suburban white kids.

"Homey" originated in the hood, but quickly made it into the verniggular.

Verniggular

1. Any word that black people use (but probably shouldn't) to describe another black person that non-black people should definitely not use - e.g. nigga, niglet, etc
2. Any word that SJWs assume is a racist slur because it includes 'nig' in it, but isn't - e.g. niggle (mild but persistent annoyance), niggard (miserly person), or Nigel (pretty much the whitest name a bloke can have)

Did you hear that Bob got canned for racism because he told the boss he had a niggling back pain?
Was that Backpain Bob, or Robbie the Racist?
What do you think?
Shit man, Bob was cool. Boss has his verniggular all wrong. My man Graf Nigel can probably hook him up with another job though.
'Graf' Nigel?
Yeah, poor guy kept getting a beatdown halfway through tagging his name, so not the full 'Graffiti'
