Hello All,
When you call someone "Hey, snake!" What does that mean? Anyone knows the origin of it?
Many Thanks!

The only thing I can think of is a liar, or someone who is deceitful. Often people would refer to a person as a snake if he is liar or has done deceitful things.
I hope that helped you! _________________ Hi! My name is Megan and I am a 15 year old girl from Montreal, Quebec. If you want to perfect your english or french, feel free to correspond with me!
