Here are the 20 best English slangs by magiclearning (   https://www.magiclearning.com/) and their meaning to take your language learning to the next level, so you can move like a native speaker and get your tourist brand off. It's time to aim for the informal.



Do you know what slangs are?



English slangs are nothing more than colloquial or informal words.



You don't learn all the slang in English classes, but they are certainly there and are part of the language.



Any culture has reconverted or transformed words that many can describe as "street slang."



In reality, English slangs are like any other idioms that gradually transform the language or are used in specific situations.



Most of them are just the product of slight changes that are not usually decisive from one moment to the next, but they do not cease to exist and coexist in parallel with the regulated words.



Why should I learn Slangs in English?



Because when you learn a language, it is one of the most challenging aspects; for example, in the UK, there coexist as many accents as variations of slang in English.



It wouldn't hurt to learn a few terms to get a complete education of the language.



Classes give you a formal grounding in the language, but you should not underestimate the importance of English idioms because, after all, everyone uses them.



In conversation, using these colloquial English words allows you to relax and maintain a level of confidence that you wouldn't get if you spoke like the gentlemen at the round table all the time.



Also, when traveling or meeting native speakers, it will be a great help. It's not about mispronouncing words in English. It's about knowing idioms that can help you in an informal situation.



Try as you might maintain formality, the reality is that you won't always be at a conference speaking like an encyclopedia. You will have to go out on the street and deal with colloquial English words most of the time.



It doesn't mean you have to become a gangster, but consider that many, regardless of race and social strata, speak this way, and you should adopt as best you can.



Another good reason to learn English slang is to have fun with friends without sounding like you came out of a library. This vocabulary is basic for everyday social situations.



Learning the idioms will help you in understanding the language. It will be a way to expand your vocabulary and study accents and intonations in depth.



Top 20 slangs in English

2. Dig: Although it means "dig," it is used when you like something. Example: "Hey, I dig your new shoes!" - Hey, I love your new shoes.



3. Ace: One theory suggests that this word came from Ace Ventura's movie with Jim Carrey. We're not sure about that, but what we do know is that it serves to highlight something fantastic.



4. Aye: An alternative and much more informal way to say "yes": "Can you come tonight? Aye" - Can you come tonight? Yes.



5. Tacky: Refers to something terrible, low quality: "Those shoes are tacky" - Those shoes are ugly.



6. Ledge: An abbreviation of Legend is used to exaggerate the quality of a person, animal, or thing in a specific situation: "You are a ledge" - You are a legend.



7. Numpty: It would be the opposite of the ledge. It refers to a dumb or incompetent person: "What a complete numpty you are" - You are a complete idiot.

13. Loaded: In any other situation, it would mean loaded, but as an idiom, it is used to denote a person with a lot of money: "That lady is loaded, look at her house."



14. Loony: One of the most beloved slangs, perhaps because it is mentioned in many movies or comedy series. It means crazy: "Adam is loony" - Adam is crazy.



15. Telly: It is common to invent idioms for what we are fond of, such as the television: "Turn on the telly! It's time for the show!" - Turn on the telly. It's time to watch the show!



16. Tosh: A rather crude neologism to say that someone is talking tosh when drunk: "She was talking tosh when drunk" - She was talking tosh when drunk.



17. Any road: Another way of saying, "anyway," it's not a way of cutting off the sentence, it's just a slightly "cooler" variant, so to speak: "So, any road, are you from Spain or Italy?" - So, anyway, are you from Spain or Italy?



18. Lass: Another one of the most common, it refers to something nice or sound in a girl, recommended to use it when defining that girl you like: "Sarah is such a good lass" - Sarah is such a good lass.



19. Earwig: Means to eavesdrop on someone else's conversation, although it is also a wake-up call, something like, "Ears, flies!": "Ana, don't earwig on your aunt!" - Ana, don't eavesdrop on your aunt!



20. Lad: The counterpart of Lass, it is used to talk about a boy, usually someone young: "He's a nice lad."



There you have it, a complete list with the best, most functional, and most used slang in English so that you can act like a native speaker without making a fool of yourself.



We recommend that you constantly practice with different groups to study and learn them as you should. If you have no way of mixing with the Anglo-Saxon culture, try social networks.



There you will find many people to share and chat with as much as you want, from anywhere in the world.



This list of the 20 best English slang may not be worthy of Shakespearean praise, but they are undoubtedly beneficial for everyday life; after all, not everything is in books.
