It is Skillshare, which is an online learning community with thousands of inspiring classes for lifelong learners.

There are so many classes to choose from, from animation to languages, to cooking, to photography, which is the one I’m really excited about. I’m trying to improve my skills. I wonder if you know Jessica Kobeissi, she’s a YouTuber and she has just launched a course on Skillshare called Portrait Photography, shoot an edit Instagram worthy shots.

Right, let’s get started with the slang phrases all 20 of them, right, let’s start with an easy one.

Number one, you might’ve heard it before but it’s also a word that sometimes confuses students ’cause they don’t know exactly when to use
it. It is, what’s up, what’s up. Some people use this word just as hello. Just a simple greeting, but other people use it to ask,

what are you doing? Or what are you thinking?

It all depends on tone of voice and context.

If I do a quick what’s up, that’s a hello.
If I say, hey, what’s up? That means, are you okay, is something that matter? What are
you thinking? The next one is, do you get me? Do you get me? Sometimes we drop the do,
and we just say, you get me, you get me? This means, do you understand what I’m saying?
Or sometimes, do you understand me? Get is a really confusing word, it has loads of meetings.
I have made a video about the word get, I will leave a link in the description box.
In this case, it means understand, I get it.

I understand it, do you get it? ‘Cause I don’t get it. Do you understand it? ‘Cause I don’t understand it. If someone says I like him because he really gets me. It means he understands me as a person. He understands what I like and what I dislike. The next one, number three is, you know it, you know it, I really like this one. It means absolutely, or that’s true.

If I ask a friend who always goes to parties, are you going to the party tonight? They might say, you know it, absolutely. Sometimes we use it sarcastically. If I ask my friend with a newborn baby, have you been getting lots of sleep? She might say, you know it, absolutely.

But in reality, she means, no, I obviously haven’t been getting lots of sleep. Number four is, I feel you. This means I understand or I empathise with you. If somebody’s telling you about a problem that they’ve experienced and you’ve experienced that same problem, you could respond with, I feel you, I understand, I empathise.

The same thing happened to me, I totally feel you. Or if you’re asking if somebody understands or empathises with you, do you feel me, do you feel me? Number five is, same or same here. Sometimes you just say same, sometimes we say same here. This means I agree or I’ve had the same experience.

Did you fail the exam, same here, I did too.
This also happened to me. Or if someone says, I hate broccoli and you also hate broccoli.
Same, I can’t stand broccoli, I love broccoli.

Number six is, hell no, hell no. It’s so expressive, it means absolutely not. That is a big no, we really like to emphasise hell no. Would you ever get back with your ex-boyfriend,

hell no. Are you going out tonight? Hell no, I’m going to get straight into my pyjamas.

Number seven is, shady. Shady, this word has become much more popular in recent years.

If something is shady, then it’s suspicious or questionable. If I say, that’s so shady, it means that such suspicious or questionable behaviour. Obviously it’s much easier to say shady. That’s so suspicious and questionable.

For example it was shady of her to leave the WhatsApp group. Or, I thought that was a bit shady of him. Number eight, legend. If someone is a legend, it means that you really like
them. He’s a legend, he’s great, I really like him. Do you know Mary?

I love Mary, she’s such a legend, she’s amazing. Sometimes we use it to talk about people that we don’t necessarily like, we don’t like or dislike them. Just that they’re well known in our community or area.

For example, the petrol station attendant is such a legend. Everyone knows him. Number nine, epic. That was epic, that means that was incredible. That was unforgettable.

We had an epic night last night. This brings me onto my next one. Number 10, which is an epic fail. If something is an epic fail, it means it’s a massive failure. I asked him out on a date and it was an epic fail he said no. My exam was an epic fail, I know that I haven’t passed. Number 11 is, ripped, ripped.

If somebody is ripped, it means they are really muscly or in shape. Oh my God, your dad is absolutely ripped, he is so muscly. I don’t know whose dad I’m talking about, mine actually,

my dad is 60 and has a six pack. Number 12, I must say I feel silly using this one but a lot of people use it. It just doesn’t sound right coming out of my mouth. But it is bomb.

It sounds so much better when Americans say it, that is bomb, but bomb from my mouth, it doesn’t sound right. If something is bomb, then it’s great. Oh, your shoes are bomb,

your shoes are lovely. I thought I’d share it with you because maybe you can make it work, I can’t make it work. Number 13 is flake
or flaky. If somebody is a flake or if somebody is flaky, it means that they always pull out.

This is a phrase verb, meaning that at the last minute, they decide not to go or not to attend something that they had originally said they would attend. So if on Monday you said that on Wednesday you would go to the cinema with your friend and then a Wednesday afternoon you say, ah, actually I can’t, you’re a flake, you are flaky. Don’t be a flake, you have to come tonight. Number 14 is no sweat, no sweat. This means don’t worry, don’t worry, it’s not a problem.

For example, when my fiance went to the shops specifically to buy deodorant for me and he came back with so many things but no deodorant. I said, no sweat, that’s fine. That was a lie, there was a lot of sweat. 15, this means the same thing, no biggie. This means it’s not a big deal. No biggie, don’t worry, no biggie, no biggie, no sweat. Number 16, this is new-ish too. Putting ish on the end of words means kind of, sort of, new, kind of new, new-ish.

I’m down, are you down? ‘Cause I’m down. This actually means to be up for something. So it’s kind of the opposite. And to be up for something means to feel keen or to want to do something. Do you want to go ice skating?

Are you up for ice skating, are you down for ice skating? I’m down for ice skating. You’re down, I’m down, okay we’re down, we are down.

Number 17 is a blast. I had a blast the other night. I had a great time, to have a blast is to have a really good time. I had a blast at the library last night. Oh again, we can also use it sarcastically. If we’re studying for exams and we’ve spent all night studying in the library we might say, I had such a blast last night, sarcasm. If you want to learn more about sarcasm, I did actually make a video on British humour.

It’s called British Humour Explained With Examples. I will leave the link in the description box ’cause I think that’s an important one if you want to understand British humour in particular. Number 18, a rip-off, a rip-off. If something is a rip-off then it is an overpriced purchase. I spent £100 on a dress and then I saw the same dress for £20, what a rip-off. Or you can also say I got ripped off or they ripped me off, a phrasal verb. Last night was such a rip off, the drinks were so expensive.

Do you remember when we could all go out for drinks and complain about how expensive they were?
I want to go out for expensive drinks, I want to complain. If you’re watching from the future and COVID’s over, can you comment and tell me it’s going to be okay. Number 19, in no time, in no time, he’ll be here in no time.

In no time means in a very short amount of time. Really, really soon, you’ll be finished with uni in no time. You’ll be finished with uni very, very soon. Uni, short for university.

Did you go to uni, yes, I went to uni. The last one, number 20 is to bail. If you say I have to bail, it means I have to leave early or abruptly. We’ve all done it before. We’ve been at a party, we haven’t been feeling it. You know, we haven’t been enjoying it.

So instead of going round and saying goodbye to everyone, we just very quietly and quickly leave. We phone up the next day and say so sorry I bailed, I just had to go home, that is baling. Right, that is it for my 20 very common slang phrases. I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you learnt something.
