Jun 24, 2015 at 3:44 comment added Nathan Tuggy I'm basically just saying that you need to properly scope where this is valid, since otherwise it's confusing. Often, slang is in use not merely in a particular narrow geography, but across a wide slice of the population in multiple areas: that is, it's often differentiated by social class or the like.
Jun 24, 2015 at 3:43 comment added Mel So, your comment is not that what I have stated is not valid but is only valid for a portion of the population. Slang is usually used by a portion of the population, and if understood, may mean different things to different people.

Jun 24, 2015 at 3:36 comment added Mel That is the correct definition from a dictionary but real world use by Americans is a little different.
Jun 24, 2015 at 3:13 comment added Nathan Tuggy Pidgin English is a bit different; it's the language mixture that develops when a group of people uses little bits of English along with bits of their native language in a highly simplified form, usually for trade. (And pidgins and creoles are not limited to English, either.)
