Cockney what???

Cockney refers to the working class of London’s East End, traditionally those born within earshot of the bells of St. Mary-le-Bow Church in Cheapside. Cockney rhyming slang replaces the intended word with a rhyming couplet, only the first word of which is usually spoken. For example, the word “phone” would be replaced by the phrase “dog and bone,” but in conversation only the word “dog” would be said. This has the advantage of confusing the unitiated, making cockney slang ideal for those, like street traders, who wish to communicate in private.
