The second or the last word in the rhyming phrase rhymes with the usual or common word. For instance, we can use the rhyming phrase 'apples and pears' in place of the common word 'stairs' Apples and Pears -- Stairs You can say "Apples and pears are a key part of the home." [instead of "Stairs are a key part of the home."] Note: Sometimes, the last word is dropped in common speech. So, you can also say, "Apples are a key part of the home." (We dropped "and pears" from the above sentence.) Cockney Rhyming slang Cockney is a dialect of the English language. Cockney Rhyming slang is believed to have originated in the mid-19th century in the East End of London. Traditionally, a cockney is someone who lives in the East End of London. INTERNET SLANGS [Most Internet slangs are short forms of phrases but often they cannot be pronounced,] 121 -- One to One 2day -- Today 2moro -- Tomorrow 2nite -- Tonight 4EAE -- For Ever and Ever
