WHAT IS A SLANG?
Slang is the language (words, phrases, and usages) of an informal register. It also sometimes refers to the language generally exclusive to the members of particular in-groups who prefer over the common vocabulary of a standard language in order to establish group identity, exclude outsiders, or both.
