A particular stereotype of anti-social youth dressed in sportswear. The word was popularised in the first decade of the 21st century by the British mass media to refer to an anti-social youth subculture in the United Kingdom. The Oxford English Dictionary defines chav as an informal British derogatory, meaning "a young lower-class person who displays brash and loutish behaviour and wears real or imitation designer clothes". The derivative chavette has been used to refer to females, and the adjectives chavvy, chavvish and chavtastic have been used in relation to items designed for or suitable for use by chavs. Good, chavvy names could include "Charlie", "JP", and "Tom".
"HEY YOU! YE YOU, THE CHAV WITH BLACK PUFFY HAIR, A BLUE PUFFA JACKET, WANTING TO GO TO A SAD-ASS SCHOOL THAT YOU'RE NOT EVEN CLEVER ENOUGH FOR!" exlaimed Ralph.

Get the Chavmug. Someone who is rude, disruptive, wears fake designer brands and usually listens to grime music. They are based in the the U.K. and their headquarters is the outside of mc donald’s where they smoke their older brothers cigarettes, wearing adidas’s or nike tracksuits. If you come to england please avoid these types at all costs.

If a chav steals your bike, break his legs. Two birds, one stone; you get your bike back and society gets a little bit better.

Get the Chavmug. Chav - thought to come from the town Cheltenham, where the private school girls would use the term chav to describe the locals of Cheltenham, short for Cheltenham average. Typically drinking energy drinks on street corners, wearing track suits but never exercising, having greasy hair (which a girl would have in an excessively tight pony tail)

Get the Chavmug. Scruffy anti social no brains who congregate on street corners of working class communities in the UK, chavs dress in the latest scrubber gear from sports direct such as joggers (sweat pants) and hoodies. They think they look the dogs bollocks but they actually look like scruffy cunts.
Chavs try and intimidate people on the streets, usually when said individual is on their own. when not in a gang, and on their own, they will shit themselves if confronted. Chavs make money by dealing drugs, mugging old grannies and thieving.
Chavs are a disgrace to decent working class people.

Get the Chavmug. A member of the 'ghetto' world and an outcast of our civil society. You can usually spot a chav by some noticeable features/characteristics e.g pulled-down trousers, communicating in a completely different language from the Queen's English or rolling their sleeves up to their shoulders
