-noun (n.)
A word derived from the derogatory word "
Nigger." Unlike the term
Nigger, Nigga doesn't necessarily have the same meaning, and CAN be used by people(s) of all races.
Differences between the two:
1) Nigger
(a) An offensive term used to describe a person of any race or origin regarded as inferior. Especially used by lightener skinned people(s) towards darker skinned people(s).
(b) Someone who lacks
intelligence.
2) Nigga
Slang term that can be used to describe anyone close to you; no matter what race or nationality you are. Can be used to describe a friend, girlfriend, boyfriend, or even an enemy. Like the word fuck, when used in different contexts, it can have a different meaning.
Advisory Warning: As long as the person whom you are speaking with understands where you are coming from, using the term "Nigga" instead of
homie or homeboy is acceptable. Always chose your words wisely when speaking with strangers.
Examples:
1) Nigger
"Billybob look! That stupid Nigger just bought a ticket to the rodeo that'
s scheduled this saturday."
2) Nigga
- When describing a friend:
(a) "Nick is my nigga. Even though he's not
black, me and him go way back."
- When describing a love interest:
(b) "Your body is bangin'
baby, I love the way you flaunt it, time to give it to daddy nigga, now tell me how you want it."
- When describing an enemy:
(c) "That bitch ass nigga just
jack my dime piece and gold chain"
