Isn't it Urban Dictionary

Contraction of 'isn't it' which has been used in London for about 40 years ATLEAST. (so stop attibuting it to all sorts of wierd groups of people like for example chavs) Used at the end of sentances in the same was as eh?, right? or you-get-me? Urban Dictionary

1. (British slang, esp. Asian, i.e. Indian, Pakistani, etc.) Contraction of "isn't it", "isn't he/she", "aren't they", "isn't there" and many other end-of-sentence questions. For greatest effect use in places where it would make no sense whatsoever if expanded. 2. General positive exclamation meaning "yes, I agree!" Urban Dictionary

Isn't it? Urban Dictionary

A derivative of "is it not", or more directly "isn't it". Often used at the end of a statement or word to give it emphasis, and simultaneously invite agreement. Urban Dictionary

Abreviation of isn't it (Is it not) "Innit" is put at the end of a question or statement meaning either: - Do you agree? or - Are you following me/Do you understand? "Innit has classically been added at the end of a sentence that contains the verb "to be", as "ISn't it" obviously refers back to a conjugation of the this verb. (See example 1.) These days though, "innit" can be used eventhough the verb in the main sentence is not a form of "to be". (See example 2) Urban Dictionary

Derives from the chav/townie/pikey sub-culture, but falsely over-labbeled on the British Asian Communities. Innit is a shortened version of is it not, in context, it would be "is it not?" which we can see is a question due to the required question mark and change in the pitch of the voice to indicate a question is being asked. Chavs, however, due to their lack of education (zero GCSEs) and ignorance towards learning English at school because "i already speaks it, innit", tend to, more often than not, use the term innit when a statement has been used, rather than a question. Urban Dictionary

A universal "tag question" to replace all the others (isn't it, doesn't it, wasn't it, weren't they, aren't we wouldn't you, etc) and about bloody time too! While the French have n'est-ce pas and the Germans nicht wahr, we have all these different tags that make English that much more difficult to learn as a second language. What a pity it has been stigmatised by the antichav brigade ie a bunch of snobs with a trendy new hat for their class prejudices. Urban Dictionary

Word used by chavs/pikeys/townies/muggers and of course the 15 year old teenage boy, walking through the baby section in mothercare. Means "isn't it" well thet's the theory. Of course it's general usage is for "yes, i agree!" or "That's exactly what that private school kid said to me!" Urban Dictionary

When someone is too damn lazy to say isn't it properly. Urban Dictionary
