[ SLANG ][ MULTILINGUAL NATIVE ]

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Wesh wesh, ça dit quoi ce soir ?"

LORE & ORIGIN

Wiktionnaire records « wesh » as a slang interjection from the Arabic phrase « واش راك » (how are you?), the exact dialect being uncertain, and notes that its meaning shifts with intonation, context or repetition. It lists « wesh-wesh » as a derived form, also in the sense of the slang itself (« parler wesh-wesh »), and cites « wesh » from the series Wesh Cousin (2004) and Booba (2007). The repeated greeting as an online catchphrase is a recent term; no dated source found yet.
