Answer 2

Dear Miss Ghetto:

I do not think your question has enough substance.  Ghetto or not ghetto has nothing to do with 'terminology' we now use in this technical era.  The abbreviations/terms for being pregnant or married are similar to terms that people use on the Internet to describe things such as, lol-laugh out loud, or brb-be right back.

These terms are not relative to one's lifestyle but more of a way to make adjectives 'fun and hip'--

I hope this will change your mind-set and hopefully you have not judged people unfairly due to the terminology they have adapted to just as a way to be in the 'loop' in our century.

There is a time and a place for everything and I'm certain if at a job interview or while speaking with other professionals, these terms would not be used because they are not indicative to proper English, but around friends or casual associations--there is nothing wrong with using such phrases.

All the best!

Answer 4

Calling your husband a nickname - normal.

Talking in mostly caps - very ghetto.

Calling other people stupid when your as smart as you are - hilarious.
