Calling all Londoner’s-Help out this confused Brummie...

[Amar-Sonar-Bangla]

I’ve moved down to London and can’t seem to get a handle on the local native lingo.


Aite

Allow it

Bare

Standard

Smashed/Smacked it (when the guy down the shop said it I thought I was in for a beating!)

Sold it


Can you enlighten me as to their meaning?

There are others I can’t remember. Does every city have it’s own linguistic sub-varieties?
