Warning:
Slang changes quickly, and slang words and expressions can disappear from the language. For these reasons, it is generally best for learners of English to avoid using slang.
Some current examples:
He’s a geek. (someone who is felt to be strange because they spend all their time studying)
Look at those old fogeys on the bench!
[teenager speaking about some elderly people in a park]
