Hi everyone!
For today I want you to have a look at English language slang. What is it? Well, slang is the way people (mainly young people) speak in a certain language. For example, we as Spanish speakers often use qué pasa! instead of buenas tardes/días. That's slang. We may say that te real language of native people is usually slang and it is important to learn this before living abroad, for example:

Slang consists on IDIOMS, EXPRESSIONS AND SHORTENED EXPRESSIONS/WORDS
Here you have some interesting sites to learn how slang works in America and the UK (among others):
PADLET ACTIVITY:
I've created a padlet (a page to share ideas) for us to create a broader knowledge of English slang. You can share images, memes, pictures, funny videos, or whatever you prefer in order to learn more English slang. I've already added a video that you'll enjoy a lot.
