Straattaal

Slide 1 - Tekstslide

Wat is straattaal?
Wikipedia:
Straattaal, een vorm van jongerentaal, is de mengtaal die jongeren van verschillende culturele en sociale achtergronden in het dagelijks leven spreken op school en op straat, naast de standaardtaal van het land waar ze wonen. Niet alle straattaalsprekers behoren tot dezelfde groep of subcultuur. Voor straattaal geldt dan ook, net als voor jongerentaal in het algemeen, dat ze niet toegeschreven kan worden aan een afgebakende groep jongeren.

About British slang
British slang is English language slang used and originating in the United Kingdom and also used to a limited extent in  countries such as the Republic of Ireland, South Africa, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. It is also used in the United States to a limited extent. Slang is informal language sometimes peculiar to a particular social class or group and its use in Britain dates back to before the 15th century. The language of slang, in common with the English language, is changing all the time; new words and phrases are being added and some are used so frequently by so many, they almost become mainstream.
