I used it almost like "crooked"....not straight (as in orientation or as in not on the books) - I'm from B'Hurst...hear it left and right in so many ways...

The contractor is a bit fugazzi...took my money and didn't finish the job.
-or-
That guy's walk is a bit fugazzi.





Thats what I thought it was.

I have a cool book "New Yawk Tawk" that defines NY slang terms. I originally bought it for my old physical therapist who was from Poland and really wanted to learn to speak like a "real NYer" he would pracctice ssaying "Fuhgeddaboutiut" and "Get the hell out of here" and "yo"

it was really funny



I can't even imagine what that would even sound likeChat Icon Chat Icon
Or translate like!



it was awesome..he's practice like

"FugGEDaboutit"
"FuhgeaABOUTit"
"fuhgedabboutIT"

To me I think of a band or an old boss of mine (different spelling).

Fugazi means f'd up & got killed. It's from the Vietnam war - similar to FUBAR
