Chav

Although most people know, some others may not. Chav is actually a four letter abbreviation for "Council House and Violence". This pretty much sums a Chav up as a whole.
Typically Chavs can be found in children's play parks drinking, smoking and generally cluttering up public areas.

Females are known to wear tracksuits with baseball caps usually with labels such as Adidas, Timberland, Reebok and other sport brands. This and also added large hoop earrings, orange skin and over-done make up.

Males are similar with wearing sport brands and are also notoriously known for taking pictures of themselves with their sleeves hoiked up over their shoulders to show how 'ripped' they are, which they are sorely mistaken. They are often seen wearing rather a lot of jewellery and tartan patterned clothing usually beige and brown.

Chavs are also known for their love of violence and acting 'hard'. You will usually find them on The Jeremy Kyle Show talking about how they are not the father of their unborn child(males) or how they did not cheat on their partner with another. Also be wary as some carry knives.

Chavs also seem to be in-capable of typing, talking and even texting in readable/understandable English.
Where do you think Chav culture originated from? They are obviously trying to be like American thugs or something of that sort. Except the thugs in America aren't 5'2", 14 years old, and armed with party poppers, but rather 6'2", mid-20s, and armed with pistols

chav

Illiterate, badly dressed, unhealthy, unappealing, badly brought up, scum. The lowest species on the planet. Worse than nits and lice. Commonly found on street corners, smoking, picking on people smaller than themselves, causing trouble and ruining our country.

Can be seen on Jeremy Kyle, outside McDonalds, and in the county court on special occasions such as their brother's bail assesment or their prize-giving ceremonies (ASBO allocations).

They have also been known to threaten people into buying them cigarettes or alcohol, whilst their pregnant thirteen year old girlfriends grab your mobile out of your pocket, to sell at a pawn brokers to fund their bling addiction.

Most chavs love mouthing off as if they "blatently" rule the planet, though most of them contradict themselves, for example "I ain't got to get no job and nobody ain't gonna fockin' make me get no job." In this sentence they have badly said that they aren't going to get NO job (ie. they are going to get at least one} and nobody isn't going to make them get no job (nobody will stop me from getting a job).

Ignorance must be bliss...

Most chavs are only like that because they are a little bit thick, so instead of attending school, they choose to skive and smoke etc. instead, therefore becoming influenced by people similar to themselves.

Chambitions...

A chambition (chav + ambition) is usually one of the following:

Chardonnay and Taneesha, 14 years old, in full earshot of everyone in their set 5 science class...

Chardonnay: Oh ma god Taneesha I have blaters got my life well sorted

Taneesha: Whassat den bebs?

An unfortunate sub-culture which is a waste of space and should be exiled

Not worthy of being called "British"

chav

A person/group of people who go around thinking they are better than everyone else. They copy everyone else as they have no imagination of their own. With things such as music and clothing style. They tend to do nothing with their lives and spend their lives getting moved on by the police from certain places and drinking cheap alcahol.
"Hey guys, this is my new friend!"

*The group start to murmer to themselves*

"Wow thats great..."

*Group murmer to themselves again*

Chav

Chav, is a derogatory term applied to certain young people that is usually heard in the United Kingdom. The stereotypical image of a chav is a white aggressive teen or young adult, of working class background, who wears branded sports and casual clothing, who often fights and engages in petty criminality, and are often assumed to be unemployed or in a low paid job. The word is believe to have arisen due to stereotypes portrayed in the British sketchshow 'Little Britain'.
Vicky Pollard from Little Britain is a chav.
