Yes I do use slangs in my
everyday conversation this because of the group of friends I interact on a day
to day basis. Culture in Trinidad has that influence on us that it becomes so
natural to use slang when sending messages. Using ‘slangs’ is an easier way to
relate to each other than using words that one will have to stop and explain
the meaning. It is also time consuming.
Yes and No in reference to
if slang is appropriate. It’s most appropriate when socializing with your
friends of you age group. However it can be seem uneducated or disrespectful if
you use slang to someone older than you. Also when deliver public speech it may
be good to use slang in comparison to what is the topic of conversation because
it can help you to keep your audience in tune to you but using too much of
slang then can also show a form of lacking vocabulary skills and communication.
