back slang is just a wierd way of talking, it was originally used in Victorian London street gangs could talk without others knowing what they were planning. but it is such a fun thing to learn,

its not common and people say it's made up but it is something different, and funny.

In back slang, the word is spoken phonetically backwards -- for example, "yob" is back slang for "boy."
