The Art of Tanguile: Uncovering the Sly and Cunning Side of Human Nature

Tanguile is a word that originated in the African American Vernacular English (AAVE) dialect. It is a blend of the words "tang" and "guile," and it refers to a person who is cunning, sly, or manipulative. The term is often used to describe someone who is clever or skilled at getting what they want through underhanded or deceptive means.

For example, if someone is trying to convince their friend to do something that is not in their best interest, they might say "Oh man, you're being so tanguile with me!" to indicate that the person is being sneaky or manipulative.

It's worth noting that the word "tanguile" is not widely recognized outside of AAVE communities, and it may be considered a regional or cultural term. However, within these communities, it is a common and well-understood word that can be used to describe a range of behaviors and characteristics.
