英语口语:原来英语国俚语这么有格调!

2019-03-01 00:09 | 来源:英语学习网站 | 编辑:学英语

  British slang is a niche of its own, evolving and transforming and adapting from city to city and from year to year, just as the English language itself has done. While American slang has become nearly universal with the influx of TV shows, films, and other media filling the screens of a significant majority of the media-viewing global population, there is so much more available once you dig beneath the surface of British slang terms and can discover some real gems beneath the surface.
