[英语语言] 美国俚语初探

摘 要：美国人在常生活中喜欢说一些幽默、生动或是一语双关的俏皮话（俚语），这些俚语通常是被排斥在正统英语教学之外。因此许多人学了多年的“正统”英捂，仍无法听懂一般简易的口语。而且要想说一口地道的美语，不了解美国俚语是不行的。本文即是针对此内容，从定义、起源、应用、构成和语言地位几方面作介绍。
关键词：美国俚语、定义、 起源、 应用、 构成、 语言地位
Abstract: American English is rich in words that are humorous, vivid and homonymous, which are so-called slang. Such wordplays are not within the legitimacy English teaching, which leads to the English learner’s misunderstanding of some simple conversations. Also if you want to speak like a native, you must learn slang. Here, this paper is to guide you to the road of learning slang, which is divided into 5 parts. They’re DEFINITION, ORIGINS, USES, FORMATION and POSITION IN THE LANGUAGE.
Key words: American slang; definition; origins; uses; formations; position in the language
