Hood

1. A slang word deriving from the word "Neighborhood". The word is mostly used when referring to an American Ghetto, The Slums or a run down environment. Most Hood like environments usually have (but not limited to) urban Thugs & Gangsters.

(Refer to... Newark, NJ / Brooklyn, NY / Compton, CA /

Detroit, MI / Camden, NJ / etc.)

2. Somebody who resides in a Ghetto.
Vinny- Ayo Jay, I'm picking up Amanda this weekend. She told me she lives near South Side (Chicago). You ever been homie?

Jamal- Yeah son, I'm up there all the time.. the place is mad hood though.

Vinny- Oh word?
--------
LeBron- Yo dawg, I heard there be a new kid... that for real?

Teddy- Oh yeah, Mikey or whatever his name is? Yeah yeah, people be telling me he hood as fuck! Comes from Camden I think?
--------
(Note: Ignoring the stereotypical thought that someone has to be African American or Hispanic/Latino to be "hood"... the person(s) can also be Caucasian. As long as he/her resides in a Ghetto like environment... and/or socialises with "hood" like individuals. Which is why sometimes you may find the occasional wigger talking in Ghetto tongue.)
