Hello guys!

Welcome back to my channel!

Today we're going to talk about American slang words that you have to know.

You don't have to necessarily use them in your speech,

but you have to know them because when you're gonna communicate with a native speaker,

with an American, you want to understand what he wants to say.

So if you're interested, please continue watching this video.

Before we transition to naming those words,

I would like to remind you

that one of the best things to do right now is to take your exercise book

and write the words down because you're going to be switching on different types of your memories.

So you're going to be seeing me,

this is visual, you're going to be listening to me,

audio or comprehension memory.

And then when you're writing things down with your own hand,

this is another type of memory.

So please write the words down and comment below

if you've been doing that So the word number one is bail and bail means living abruptly So for example,

you went to the cinema with your friends and then you realize your homework isn't done yet And you say hey guys,

I'm sorry I'm gonna bail which means you're gonna go home

and just finish what you had to do to feel blue

Is a pretty common phrase slang phrase in all English speaking countries and to feel blue means to feel sad Mark Taraski.

A buck.

And a buck is American for a dollar.

This costs 200 bucks, right?

200 dollars.

Give me a buck.

Give me a dollar.

Give me a buck.

The next expression is by the skin of my teeth.

So, for example, you were playing something and you hurt yourself,

but then you say, I hurt myself just by the skin of my teeth,

which means, yes, it hurt, but not a lot.

Just barely.

Seems you've passed by the skin of your teeth.

creep oh creep is a title

that you give to a person who's really creepy that's great explanation right it's a really weird unpleasant

and strange person who is acting in a weird way for example you have a guy who's stalking you

and stalker is another slang somebody who's following you who is trying to get your attention

and because he's around you all the time doing strange things you call him a creep.

You're a creep.

Creep.

Couch potato should be one of my favorite ones

because this is a person who sits on the sofa

and does nothing all day everybody has this friend who you call all the time

and he's like ah I'm sorry I won't be able to

join you today I want to spend some time at home

and you can call him couch potato

because he doesn't want to go out he just wants to sit at home

and do nothing to crash which means to fall asleep abruptly

and this happens to me every single day

when I'm tired I go to bed and I just crash

which means go to sleep really fast a recording yes down-to-earth is actually an adjective

and you can call a person down-to-earth

when he's really simple he doesn't try to show off he's

this normal guy he's really down-to-earth funny down-to-earth another expression

that Americans like is for real for example you tell somebody

that you're going to Europe

and he's like oh for real are you going to Europe this means honestly

so instead of saying honestly you can say for real for

real for real another slang phrase is the cold shoulder

if you give somebody a cold shoulder means you are ignoring them on purpose

so somebody is trying to reach out to you

and you give them a cold shoulder

which means you don't want to communicate with them you're giving me the cold shoulder

and now there's slang words typically American

and I've been watching this movie called Miss Sloan this movie is all about this slang phrase

and this is the phrase plet the fifth this is very political thing

so there is the fifth amendment to the American Constitution

which allows you to not testify against yourself

so for example imagine there's the squad

and there is this guy who's accused of a crime

and somebody's asking him did you commit this crime the guy pleads the fifth

which means he says according to the fifth amendment of the Constitution I would not testify against myself

so he won't tell anything because this information can be used against him

so this is plead the fifth now let's go down to something a little easier

and I think I've mentioned this phrase in one of my

videos by the way I have a lot of videos about

American phrases I have a I have a video about 50 common phrases in English,

video about 100 common words in English,

and I have a video about 25 idioms in English.

The links will be below,

and please watch them after watching this video.

Next phrase is screw up and screw up means make a mistake.

I'm sorry, I screwed up, I made a mistake.

Instead of saying nice and wow and beautiful all the time,

you can say oh that's sweet,

which means that's nice,

but making your speech diverse using different words is actually really helpful for your vocabulary

and really helpful for other people because you don't sound the same all over again

so write this down sweet means nice sweet tight this word can be used

when you're talking about competition

so tight competition means there is a really small gap between two competitors

and the competition becomes really tight so it's really intense

and they have to work really hard to surpass each other

tight the next word is to trash you probably know the noun trash

and trash is the same as rubbish rubbish is british trash is american this means all of the things

that you throw away but to trash means to destroy something

so for example he trashed his car means he destroyed his car maybe he had an accident

100

and now he has to get a new one

101

so he trashed his car wrap up is a word

102

that i hear every day

103

and wrap up means to finish something okay guys let's wrap

104

up let's finish to hang out this is a word

105

that you can use when you're relating to your friends you're inviting them to come over

106

and you say come over to my place

107

which means come to my place

108

and let's hang out let's do something together you can also use the word to hang out to describe

109

that you're actually not busy with anything so for example you sit at home

110

and and your friend calls you and asks where you're up to,

111

which means what are you doing right now?

112

And you're like, nothing, just hanging out.

113

So you're just spending your time at home.

114

Maybe you're watching YouTube videos, so nothing serious.

115

I'm just hanging out.

116

Just hanging out.

117

Another word that I love and that I hear a lot is wheels.

118

And you know wheels, which means,

119

you know, something that is rolling in your car,

120

but you can also use the word wheels instead of using the word car.

121

So I have my own wheels today,

122

which means today you're driving,

123

you're not taking an Uber or a taxi.

124

And this way you can use the word wheels in the

125

meaning of a car the next one you've probably heard thousands of times

126

and the word is babe and You I would not recommend using this word,

127

but you need to understand so somebody if you're a female and somebody is calling you babe

128

This is not really polite But this means that the person who's calling you babe finds you attractive and really hot Babe!

129

Babe!

130

Babe!

131

No, babe!

132

To bust somebody.

133

To get busted means to be caught for doing something illegal,

134

something you were not supposed to do.

135

For example, police busts burglars every day in the streets of San Francisco.

136

Police is everywhere.

137

They catch burglars or they catch people who are disregarding the rules.

138

So to get busted means to get arrested, to be caught.

139

140

149

And the last word that I wanted to share with you today is epic fail.

150

An epic fail means complete disaster, awful.

151

I'm laughing because it is used in the memes all the time.

152

In a formal meeting, you won't really use the word epic fail,

153

but I don't know, if your friend tried to hit up on a girl,

154

tried to flirt with a girl and the girl just told that she's married,

155

then that guy had an epic fail.

156
