This word originates in "Chutney" or "Hinglish", a hybrid of English and words local to the region of India/Pakistan. It found its way into white street slang, and thus its association with "chavs" was born.
It is not linked to lack of education or "chavness", being perfectly acceptable to say in any company.
It is used in several ways:
1. As a further contraction of "isn't it". To show that the prior statement contained an element to which the listener is expected to agree, or disagree with.
2. As an expression of agreement.
3. To merely emphasize whatever came before it.

British slang. Question inflexion that can be added to the end of almost any sentence, prompting the listener to give an ackowlegement. Originally began as a contraction of the phrase "isn't it" (its self a contaction of "is it not") but now used in place of a huge variety of phrases, such as "don't you agree?" or "don't you think?" etc.
Can also be used to agree with a statement made by another, therefor representing the posivite of "isn't it" ("isn't it though!" etc.).
Popularised amongst the British Asian community, due to the highly multicultural nature of modern Britian, the term has quickly become almost toally universal in all generations born in the UK during the last thirty years.

coming from downtown england, this word can be a noun, verb or adjective. The original meaning was 'isn't it' or anything along those lines but has now become just a fill-in word to make a sentence confusing and/or have zero meaning.
