Internet Slang
Lesson Goal: Learn how to understand and use casual internet slang when speaking in real-life conversations.
Digital English
English changes incredibly fast. Today, many new words and phrases start on social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, or Twitter, and quickly become part of everyday spoken language.
We call this Slang. Slang is very informal. You wouldn't use these words in a professional email to your boss, but you will definitely hear young people, friends, and colleagues using them in casual conversations. Understanding these words helps you sound more natural and fluent.
Go to the next card to learn the slang vocabulary, then listen to the conversation between Jenny and Mark in the Listen tab!
