Learn the BEST Canadian Slang
- It's kind of groovy, yo. I quite enjoy it. And I like to teach slang because it's fun, and it's how we normally talk, and it makes you sound more natural in English, and it makes you cooler. I'm just going to say it, okay? If you rock into a place... You go into a place, you rock into a place, and you know how to speak the local slang, you're just going to have a good time. Mm-hmm. If you walk or enter a building, and you're kind of using language that's maybe older or kind of weird, you can still charm the people, but learning slang, it's kind of a way to get to the cool people where you are. So, you also have to be careful, though. As a person who's learning a new language, slang can be kind of difficult because what slang do you use? Like, how do you know what slang to study? How do you know what to use to kind of fit in? And there's different things you have to be aware of. So, first of all, and this is one of the huge things that annoys the piss out of me, slang is uncountable. So, as soon as you see people saying slangs on other instructional videos on the internet, turn it off because it's not slangs, it's slang. So, you have to be careful that you're using appropriate slang, and it's going to be based on a couple things. The region-okay?-the area, region or area, or the city, even the country where you live. I'm Canadian. I have a flag here. Okay? And the slang that we have in Canada is very different from American slang. British slang, completely different from us. And not only is it focused on country, but area. Where I grew up, Niagara, represent.
