'''Slang''' consists of informal terms not recognized as proper usage or not found in older [[dictionaries]], which express ideas or emotions of particular groups or cultures.
Slang is a product of [[culture]], and changes over time. A review of the slang of the 1920s illustrates how much it does change.<ref>[http://local.aaca.org/bntc/slang/slang.htm "Slang of the 1920's"]</ref>
Slang tends to exhibit more regional variation than standard English. For example, whereas an Englishman and a [[New York]]er can normally understand each other perfectly well, if either party uses a lot of slang, communication can become more of a problem.
