What is "slang"?
Slang is a type of informal language that consists of words, phrases, or expressions that are often specific to a particular group, subculture, or community. Slang terms can change quickly and may not be understood by people outside of the group. It is commonly used in casual conversation and can convey a sense of identity, belonging, or cultural connection among speakers. Slang often reflects current trends, attitudes, and social issues, making it dynamic and adaptable. While it can add flavor and personality to language, slang is typically not used in formal writing or speech.
