I would like to point out that the majority of the words used on this slang list are American idioms and not something your average British person uses.  I apprieciate that many people learn, practice and develop their English from watching American TV shows, so the list does contain terms that are relevant to know of course. I just felt it important that people understood that .

Gonna be kind of alien languageSmile, isn't it? By the way, there's a good slang book named " Slangman guide to street speak 1 ". Why don't u use this book as a source?
