According to
"The Rolling Stone Illustrated History of Rock & Roll", "in
Jamaican slang, "dub" is
exactly equivalent to "
fuck.""
Dubbing originally refered to the practice of talking or
chanting, with a heavy bass beat in the background. It was refered to as "dubbing" because a lot of the talking was "
dirty".
Literally translated, that not only makes your average sound manual a hell of a lot funnier than it was to begin with, but it makes for two categories of imported foreign movies: the sub-titled version, and the fucked version.
I couldn't agree more...
