do you like when people use slang language and can you understand it?

I understand a lot of it but there is still a lot that I don't, it doesn't bother me if I don't because chances are they are talking about something I am really not interested in anyway.

I'm ok with some slang but when it's so much I can't follow the conversation,I don't like it at all. I sometimes have a hard time with my daughter's new slang..some of the things the kids use don't mean the same thing as when I was young.lol..Things have almost got a little rowdy around here over it. She talks pretty straight with me now.

I don't mind when people use slang language but sometimes I don't understand what the meaning is and i have to ask. I try not to use it myself when typing because I don't want to confuse people. But sometimes it happens that I'm thinking in slang and that is how i type it.

Hi annjilena! We have so much slang here in the US, especially where I live! I have learned alot of it because I am around alot of young people! It takes time to pick up their weird words, but then you get used to it and then they have new words! There are just too many to list! I like some of them actually! They say a shortened version of chilling and relaxing "chilaxing"! I kind of like that one! Then they have so many others! When you spend alot of time with them you just pick it up. My girlfriend has two teenage girls and I get alot of the words from them.

oh i hate it don,t talk to me crazy i want to understand what you are saying to me.some slang is so bad you can,t understand a word;

I don`t like slang language. I find it silly and if those who think that the use of slang language makes them COOL: are so wrong! I can hardly understand what they are trying to say, and it sounds so freaking funny that I just have to laugh. Besides, polluting an old and classy grammar and language is not nice! Should we punish youngsters for doing this harm to the language? Do You use slang language?

The same as you also home boy and some others dont come to mind right now . But I got useto it never bothered me in any way . I am sure when I was a kid we had ou own way of talking it was to sort of confuse any one listening lol

I rarely understand but I like it because of the difference or uniqueness. The slang usually depends on the place where they reside. Its copyrighted to the place and no one can steal it and if you get to hear the slang in different places of the world you find the person to be from the land of that slang. thats nice right?

Hi friend! I'm late but still would want to participate in your post! I'm a Filipino and have been used to American English the way it was taught in school. I'm not really so used to slang because I do not live in an English environment where everyone communicates in English. Slang I know is very informal word or phrases more common in speech or spoken and not in writing. As a non-native English speaker I only get to encounter slang whenever we have American or British guests in our office and I find nothing wrong with them using slang like da bomb, ice, yo,jollies,veep, ends,pissed, jerk,nerd, etc. I find nothing wrong with them for as long as they do not use that in writing and also for as long as they do not use the vulgar and offensive ones to hurt the feelings of people around. What I am most concerned about is my difficulty in understanding British English. I'm kind of losing my senses whenever they talk to me and can't understand them. Their words are coming out of their nose and sometimes like swallowing some letters and I really could not understand them most of the times unless I ask them to repeat. I hate to look like stupid when I'm faced with that kind of situation.(ha!ha!ha!) This is not like my encounters with Americans whose speech are really very clear to me.
