I figured Cafe Society was best place for this given it’s a request for artistic assistance. If mods think otherwise whisk it to where you will.
So little background, My wife likes hip hop music, and it was recently announced that Snoop Dog was touring Australia, (after having sorted out some Visa issues) and unknown to the missus I have managed to get two tickets to his Brisbane show. So 300 odd bucks later :eek:, I now have my wifes birthday present.
Rather than just handing her the tickets, I want to do up a nice little certificate to present to her, something along the lines of This certifcate you are entitled to attend Snoop Dogs concert, etc etc.
However, and here comes the help part, I thought it would be cool to ‘Hip Hop’ up the certificate, with a Fashizzle here and some bling there. :dubious: But I don’t have the foggest about how to use the terms appropriately.
So off the top of my head my basic plain english one was going to read something like this:
*This Certificate entitles my darling wife to attend a concert on October blah, featuring Snoop Dog & Ice Cube.
The certificate also entitles you to take along a girlfriend of your choice, or if you prefer you may choose to be chaperoned to the concert by your loving Husband.*
[In case you’re wondering about that wording, I’m not really into Hip Hop, but wanted to offer to go with her if she wants]
Ha! Where’s Barbara Billingsley when we need help speaking jive?
Using The Dialectizer, here’s what I got:
Dis Certificate entitles mah’ darlin’ mama t’attend some concert on Octoba’ blah, featurin’ Snoop Dog & Ice Cube. De certificate also entitles ya’ t’snatch along some goathomey uh yo’ choice, o’ if ya’ prefa’ ya’ may choose t’be chapuh’oned t’de concert by yo’ lovin’ Husband.
