Tutnese and its use in other countries[edit]

I moved to the USA in 2007 and was introduced to something called Yuckish (I think thats how it is spelt). Yuckish I was told was a language used by black slaves to teach their children how to read etc without the owners knowing. Within the family I have married into it was (and still is) used by adults to communicate without the children understanding. That is until the children crack the code, this was looked upon favourably. There are some subtle differences but not many, could this be a link to the slave trade as the Dutch Boers were quite heavily involved and the indication is that Tutnese originated with the Dutch. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.190.168.66 (talk) 19:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Double Dutch (language game)[edit]

This redirects to Tutnese, but possibly refers to something different, and may explain some of the changes that resulted in this version, which doesn't mention Tutnese. Peter E. James (talk) 11:57, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PLEASE READ[edit]

Hi. this language is sacred and its used for african american people only. you all just gave white people the tools to access the language and the ability to translate it. the language was meant to only be used by black ppl and this is NOT OKAY. It has happened to my friends who spoke it to not be understood by whites. Tut isnt just pig latin, it should be protected like it was meant to be and not in a public article such as this one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aniesw (talk • contribs) 21:22, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tutnese (Also known as "Tut" or Double Dutch) is a language game primarily used in English (particular the AAVE dialect) although the rules can be easily modified to apply to almost any language. Created by enslaved African Americans, Tutnese has traditionally been used by African Americans when in the presence of oppressive power structures such as slave holders, or police ("pupolulisus" or "pizolizice"), by children, who use it to converse in privacy from adult

Very important[edit]

This language is very sacred and should be no where on the internet. Please delete this entry, think of the language as a closed practice. This entry is very disrespectful In all kinds of ways even though that may not have been your intention it still is.
