1. An interjection shouted at someone who has been publicly humiliated. 1a. "Moted, corroded, your booty exploded." 2. Adjective describing such a person, i.e. "When she said that to him, he musta felt so moted." 3. General insult, i.e. "Those shoes are hella moted.". Contributor reports this as being very regional in its use. He doesn't think it's been heard outside the California state border. Even in CA it seems to have been confined to certain neighborhoods, with huge tracts of land between them totally ignorant of the word, as if it had teleported the distance. He thought it was a San Francisco Bay Area thing, but recently heard it referred to as "Valley slang" (S. California.) He remembers it from the early 90s, but its use apparently peaked in the 80s. Probably derives from "demoted." (ed: no sooner do we add information than it's updated... which is great! For example... see below. Ilana sent in the following) Your listing says it was particular to California, but you only list the Bay area (San Francisco) and the San Fernando Valley as places where you've gotten confirmed reports it was used. Well, I can add another area: I lived in Santa Monica (L.A.) in the 1970s and heard "moted" and "moted and corroded" all the time, at school. Although Santa Monica is only a handful of miles from the San Fernando Valley, it is definitely NOT the valley, culturally speaking; those really are two distinct areas, so you could add Santa Monica to your listing as a legitimate third part of California where the expression was used. (ed: so that clears *that* up... perhaps?)

slang for money, commonly used in singular form, eg., 'Got any dollar?..'. In earlier times a dollar was slang for an English Crown, five shillings (5/-). From the 1900s in England and so called because the coin was similar in appearance and size to the American dollar coin, and at one time similar in value too. Brewer's dictionary of 1870 says that the American dollar is '..in English money a little more than four shillings..'. That's about 20p. The word dollar is originally derived from German 'Thaler', and earlier from Low German 'dahler', meaning a valley (from which we also got the word 'dale'). The connection with coinage is that the Counts of Schlick in the late 1400s mined silver from 'Joachim's Thal' (Joachim's Valley), from which was minted the silver ounce coins called Joachim's Thalers, which became standard coinage in that region of what would now be Germany. All later generic versions of the coins were called 'Thalers'. An 'oxford' was cockney rhyming slang for five shillings (5/-) based on the dollar rhyming slang: 'oxford scholar'.
