Hola me gustaría saber cómo se dice en español el nombre del dialecto "London Jamaican" que se habla en Gran Bretaña.
De antemano muchas gracias.

jamaicano londinense

Explanation:
Creo que tiene que traducirse literalmente; cualquier alternativa sería inexacta.

" Acabo de ver Kidulthood y Adulthood
Si os gustan las peliculas de los bajos fondos londinenses echadles un vistazo, sobretodo a la primera, Kidulthood. [...]
pero aviso que solo estan en ingles, las tendreis que ver con subtitulos pero vale la pena para oir el slang jamaicano londinense"

"London Jamaican" no es estrictamente sinónimo de "Anglo-Jamaican", aunque en la práctica viene a ser más o menos lo mismo. Por tanto, yo pondría "jamaicano londinense" y no "jamaicano británico".
