Synopsis
Intermediate to advanced students of American English will find this pocket-sized reference, which contains more than 1,600 slang terms and expressions, invaluable. These are the words and phrases that native speakers actually use in day-to-day situations, not the dry textbook English that is usually taught in school. These terms have been collected from newspapers, magazines, radio, TV, and daily conversation. Each entry is presented with the International Pronunciation Alphabet (IPA) recommended pronunciation, a Standard English definition, and a sample sentence to illustrate usage and context. Expressions are rated, inoffensive to highly offensive, using a numbering system from one to six.
