Good One!



Comment From Tanyetta:
"Please explain what Chunka lunks means? You know there are Yankees reading your blog now! LOL"
Response From Klassy:
:-) LOL Sure Mrs. Tanyetta. I'll be happy to answer your question! Chunkulunks is my version of the original Trinidadian slang Choonkoonks. Choonkoloonks is a popular slang used amongst many caribbean people as a term of endearment for one who is loved. It is just the same as using the terms cutie, sweetheart, darling, love, dear, and simply honey. Anyone you love, cherish, and have affection for, would definitely qualify for you to call them your "Choonkoloonks". Your hubby, daughter, and DJ for example, would be fit perfect for the definition for "Choonkoloonks". Also in my family sometimes we shorten the word to "Choonks" LOL With me so far? Same meaning, just shortened.

Anyhow you choose to use the term to your fancy is splendid!

P.S. There is a song. The name of the song escapes me..but the lyrics as I can remember some, goes something like," She's my choonkoloonks, love her everyday of mah liiiife. She's my choonkoloonks loving her all meh liife." Sorry that's all I remember. :-)
