Rhyming Slang

Rhyming slang is a dialect that is popular amongst Cockneys which consists of phrases that rhyme with the common words they represent. For example, the phrase 'Thru'penny Bits' is used instead of the word 'Hits' as in, 'I really enjoy Katy Perry's Thru'penny Bits,' as the popular cockney comedian Russell Brand was heard to say when asked what first attracted him to his fiancée.
