[Noun] | "par*lance" | \ ˈpär-lən(t)s \
1: speech; especially : formal debate or parley
2: manner or mode of speech : idiom
Origin: 15th century ;
Middle English parlaunce, borrowed from Anglo-French parlance, parlaunce "speech, gossip, debate," from parler "to speak, talk" + -aunce, -ance {see: |-ance|-ance} {mat|parley:2|parley:2};
* Note : Parlance is much more amply attested in Anglo-French than in continental Old and Middle French, especially after ca. 1300. The Dictionnaire du moyen français has only marginal evidence for the word after 1350.;

[ "Smol ting parlance" ]
1: A variance of the English language made popular by the cryptotwitter OG @insersebrah. Smol ting parlance is mostly practiced in tweets by @inversebrah and subsequent replies to them. The language is characterised by a minimalistic sentence structure, heavy use of shorthand and acronyms, while eliminating most of the formal punctuation, and prepositions. Recent evolution has seen elements of wassie terminology like swh (shaking wassie’s head) being used extensively in smol ting parlance.
* e.g., ... You can see an example of smol ting parlance in this @inversebrah tweet: “iz oke your coin wil punp to”
