ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Verlan

Verlan is a way of speaking in French where you take a word and switch the order of its syllables. For example, the word "ami" (which means friend) would become "mi-a". It is kind of like a secret language that some people use to communicate with each other without others understanding. It can be tricky to understand at first, but once you get the hang of it, it can be a lot of fun to use!
