Imagine the following common conversation:
Q: What are you up to?
A. The usual
Now imagine it spoken by certain kids these days:
Q: What are you up to?
A: The yooooshj.
My question pertains to the utterance "yooooshj," which is a shortened form of "usual" made up solely of its first syllable.
When writing dialog in fictional narrative, how do you spell something like this?
How, in general, do you handle slang that has questionable spelling?
