The Jive

The act of briefly dancing up against a stranger as you cross the dance floor in a club.



No Jive
Another way to say no lie, or to say that you are not kidding.
Example:
Austin: "Hey, Teddy did John seriously get in a fight?"
Teddy: "Yea man, no jive. But it was with a girl."


Jiving
An 1970s/early 1980s slang word for saying someone is trying to deceive or lie to you. It could also be used as a way to say "he/she's just kidding around!". It can be used in a positive or negative context. Usually used a lot in the American Television series "Good times", also used in the well known song from the Bee Gees "Jive Talkin"

Jiving means lying, trying to deceive, or kidding around.
Example:
Person 1: "I got the job!"
Person 2: "Man, You jivin'!"
or

Person 1:" i got the clothes done"
Person 2: "stop jiving! i know you didn't!"


Jiving
Taking LSD at 9 pm, then tripping all night while listening to smooth jazz.
Example:
"Yo dude I'm literally just Jiving"
"Kyle it's three in the morning go to be"
"I can't bro these visuals are too good"


jive
Like a whole other language in the 70's-80's. Here is a memorable quote from Airplane.
Example:
Randy : Can I get you something?
Second Jive Dude : 'S'mofo butter layin' me to da' BONE! Jackin' me up... tight me!
Randy : I'm sorry, I don't understand.
First Jive Dude : Cutty say 'e can't HANG!
Jive Lady : Oh stewardess! I speak jive.
Randy : Oh, good.
Jive Lady : He said that he's in great pain and he wants to know if you can help him.
Randy : All right. Would you tell him to just relax and I'll be back as soon as I can with some medicine?
Jive Lady : Jus' hang loose, blood. She gonna catch ya up on da' rebound on da' med side.
Second Jive Dude : What it is, big mama? My mama no raise no dummies. I dug her rap!
Jive Lady : Cut me some slack, Jack! Chump don' want no help, chump don't GET da' help!
First Jive Dude : Say 'e can't hang, say seven up!
Jive Lady : Jive dude don't got no brains anyhow! Hmmph!


jive
1) Jazz slang from the 1930s and 40s. The language of swing.
Cab Calloway produced some "hepster dictionaries" in the form of free booklets given away with his recordings of the time.

2)A partner dance from the 1950s based upon a 6-count pattern. A rather simplistic descendent of the more complex and exciting Lindy Hop. Danced to rockabilly, early rhythm 'n' blues, rock 'n' roll and sometimes swing, although Lindy is the preferred dance.
Example:
1) first chap~ Get off the fence Hortense! Dig those real gone gates! They totally send me!
second chap~ Sir, are you talking jive to me?

2)I'm knackered, I was jiving all night at the club. The Lindy Hoppers weren't too impressed though as they didn't play much swing.


Jiving
To be on the same level/page as someone. Used much like the term "Chillin", except the people you are "jiving" with are usually very close to you.
Example:
Tim: "Hey dude what's going down?"
Me: "Just jiving with jerry."

Me: "Hey Tim, Come over and jive with us!"
