2. What is Verlan? Verlan is a form of French slang that consists of playing around with syllables. To "verlan" a word, simply separate it into syllables, reverse them, and put the word back together. Sometimes letters are dropped or added to make pronunciation logical. Not every word can or should be verlaned; verlan is used essentially to emphasize or hide the meaning of the main word(s) in a sentence. Based on ‘About:French.com’

3. How do you form verlan? start with the word l'envers, which means the reverse. Separate l'envers into its two syllables l'en and vers. Invert them, put them together into a single word, and then adjust the spelling: l'envers... l'en vers... vers l'en... versl'en... verslen... verlen... verlan Thus, you can see that verlan is l'envers pronounced à l'envers (reverse pronounced in reverse).
