In this round of "Ask a British Dude"...

translate the whole austin powers and his dad thing in austin powers 3 (I can't find the transcript).
 
Just because you're not of a particular subculture doesn't mean you don't know the slang. How many white people have figured out what "Fo shizzle" means vs. how many people that would use it in a non-satirical sense.

<-- not British, just works with a couple.

"fo' shizzle my nizzle" is a bastardation of "fo' sheezy my neezy" which is a bastardazation of "for sure my awesome dude" which is a bastardation of "I concur with you wholeheartedly, my African American brother."

I'm not sure that's the context Fran Drescher used it in in those Old Navy commercials.

Subtitles work great for that. In fact there is an audio option for to subtitle just the gypsies lines. Oh, and there is one line that isn't translated, the subtitle says something like funny, like (can't understand) or something like that. 😛
