American English slang definition

Slang is the non-standard use of words in a language and sometimes the creation of new words or importation of words from another language.

Slang terms are often particular to a certain subculture, such as skaters, or musicians.

Slang is used extensively in American TV, movies, music, literature, and in conversations among native English speakers.
 
American English slang example

"hang"

I think that we should "hang" at the beach today.

The meaning of this slang term is to "spend time."

The word "hang" has a completely different meaning in standard English usage.

hang - To fasten from above with no support from below.
