back in shakespeares time, there he was obsessed with the venetians, so to make them look so amazing he thought he would give them their own language, which nowerdays we call "chav"

take merchant of Venice, when antonio says to shylock,

"lend me thou penny, i wish to get hammered"

and another reference is in a midsummer nights dream where bottom says to tatania

"init blud, thou art looking freakin' gorjus!"

hope that helped :D
