Bibliography................................................................................................. Acknowledgements......................................................................................AbstractAmerican slang is one of the language varieties in English language. It used to be considered as low, vulgar language, which ought not to be admitted as legitimate language. But there is a strong relationship between language and culture, and even the society. One language could just come into being in a very society and culture. American slang words manifest American culture and characters of American people. With the development of globalization, economy and social system, American slang gets more and more influential. This thesis puts American slang under the discussion of language and culture, and can help us achieve better understanding of American culture and society. The first part of this thesis talks about the basic perspective and features of slang, which gives us a brief introduction to American slang. The second part of this thesis is the keystone. In this part, we will analyze the relationship of language and culture and the sub-culture groups in America. Along with the discussion, we will get clearer understanding of the origin of American slang, and get further knowledge of the development of American culture and society. In the last part of this thesis, discussion will be focused on the status quo of American slang and the attitude people hold to it.Key words:American slang, origin, sub-culture groups摘要语言和社会文化是相互影响的。

黑人俚语
[color=DarkSlateBlue]through - thru
[color=DarkSlateBlue]love - luv
英语单词里的cks和ks经常写为x
[color=DarkSlateBlue]thanks - thanx (或直接写成thx)
[color=DarkSlateBlue]ganster - gansta
[color=DarkSlateBlue]reguler - regula
[color=DarkSlateBlue]rapper - rappa
[color=DarkSlateBlue]nigger - nigga
2. 搞清楚这个人的来路，属于哪个帮派。
[color=DarkSlateBlue]"Jonny, go hit them fools up."
[color=DarkSlateBlue]“强尼，去问问那些傻逼是干嘛的。”
[color=DarkSlateBlue]Grab your glocks when you see 2pac
但是大家一般都会看到很多歌词里都会出现nigga……那个……是黑人自己不争气，不过当一个黑人对另一个人说" u re my nigga"的意思，nigga已经延伸为一个“值得信任的朋友，兄弟”的一个涵义。
具体上还是直接属于黑人自己的一个词汇…
bling bling
名词，一般代之黑人说唱歌手或者年轻人脖子上的亮晶晶的，发着闪闪银光金光的，贵得让人眼红的，项链、珠宝、十字架之类的装饰品，一般都很大很显眼！

Keep it real– 坦白说
Loc – 疯狂的

Fac，或是饶舌团体The Whitehead brother的成名曲「My Lover is a
187」也都是用187当代表号。其它和数字有关的代号，则多与枪枝有关
2.用字母代替之字眼
A表示最好的，B则为差的，如B-Side即指最劣的事物，但A plus (A+)则是最优的代表。C常为see的任用字。G则来头不小，可指帮派分子
Ice Cabe的专辑Bootlegs B.B.
Side中之最后一首混音曲D'VOIDOFPOPNIGGAFIEDMEGAMIX，一大串，看的令人头痛的很，但多念几次就知道发音及字意了。此外，如Digital

Some American Slangs (I)
(1) Boondoggle (n.)
A business trip that, because of its fun or exciting location, seems more like a vacation. This term is sometimes used to mock the person taking the boondoggle, even if the trip is completely legitimate and perhaps even very busy. To hear the pronunciation, go to /search/boondoggle/ and click on the "play" symbol. Examples:
"Your next conference is in Las Vegas? Geez, how'd you pull off that boondoggle?" "Financial audit in Miami---sure sounds like a boondoggle to me."
***********************************
(2) Dealbreaker (n.)
A condition that eliminates any possibility of future negotiation. Often used in business but also in personal relationships.
Examples:
"If they ask for anything over $50,000, that's an automatic dealbreaker."
"She's pretty, so I normally wouldn't mind asking her out on a date, but she smokes, and that's a dealbreaker for me."
"I'm not saying that a person having a tattoo is a dealbreaker in a spouse, but it's pretty close."
***********************************
(3) Leadfoot (n.)
A person who likes to drive cars quickly (as if lead [chemical symbol: Pb] weights were attached to his/her foot).
(to) Floor it (v.) To accelerate a car quickly (as if pressing the gas pedal of one's car all the way down to the floor of the car).
(Put the) Pedal to the metal (phrase) Similar to "floor it". As before, the visual image is that of someone pressing the gas pedal all the way down to the floor of the car. Examples:
"Take it easy, leadfoot! I'd like to get to the supermarket without getting in a car accident, if you don't mind."
"This criminal is going to get away if you don't floor it right now!"
"If you don't want her to have the baby in your car, you'd better put the pedal to the metal and get to the hospital as fast as you can."
***********************************
(4) Shoutout (n.)
Positive recognition, usually preceded by "give a". Used in informal situations, like radio shows, and more by people in their 20s and 30s. Not used in formal situations, such as academic lectures.
Examples:
"I'd like to take this opportunity to give a shoutout to XYZ Company, for their time and contributions that make all of this possible."
"Thanks for this award---I'd like give a shoutout to my family and friends for all their support."
**********************************
(5) True that (phrase)
A phrase meaning "I agree." Used almost exclusively by teenagers and people in their 20s. Relatively new slang.
Example:
Person A: "That was a really good movie."
Person B: "True that. It had a lot of action."。
