I have a few close friends who are Persian and who speak Farsi. In Farsi, "jendeh" is a derogatory word for a girl who gets around. We started using it so much, we shortened it to "jen." Like, "I hate that girl -- she's such a jen." And if a girl is mean or we don't like her we'll call her "Jen" like it's her name. Like, "Hey, Jen, get me a beer." It's perfect for my friends because we're honest. "Jen" is as blatant as it gets, but no one knows what we're talking about.
