      It would be nice if you expressed the difference between "slang" and AAVE. There is a difference between how the different racial groups communicate. Be careful not to disrespect anyone's culture.

      That’s interesting. I’m 61 and when I was a kid learning English in Brazil, “groovy” was a very popular slang word for “cool” in the US, but I’ve learned it’s quite outdated now. So, if one ever uses “groovy,” he’s probably a “baby boomer” and is being “cheuggy”.😄

    "Out of pocket" can also mean absent, or unavailable.
    For example, an office mate might be in the restroom, or out of the office on personal business. If someone calls and asks for him, I might say, "I'm sorry, he's out of pocket at the moment."

    An entertaining thing is that in Russia a lot of modern and slang words come from English language and in particular American accent.
    The Gen Z uses them really frequently and the elder generations don't know meaning of these words. So this is important to learn not just English, but the newest version of it🙂

    Wow, learned so much right there! Basically anything can be turned into a verb right now ain’t it? Like the other day I bumped into the expression “Mee tooed” like referring to “Mee too” movement and using it to say that someone has been “mee tooed”. “That’s so dope” about English! It has so much plasticity. To end this, the slang “out of the pocket” reminded me to another piece of slang that is used in music “in the pocket” in means to play in time, to play really tight or in sync with the other musicians.
    Oh btw, what was that “y2k vintage” or “y2k vibes”?
    Keep up the good work. Cheers!

    Great video (as always), Rachel! 😁
    Last week, I was exploring your playlists and this question sprang to mind:
    In many news shows, some interviewees speak almost without stressing any words/syllables, making really long thought groups. It looks like there are no periods or comas in their speeches haha.
    Is this a convention in broadcast journalism?
    I recalled that fact from watching a few interviews with Glenn Greenwald and Mike Pompeo. They are good examples of this way of talking.
    I think it would be an interesting topic to delve into!

    • @rachelsenglish
      @rachelsenglish  3 роки тому

    Hello Rachel! How are you? I hope you are well and that you had a great and fun long holiday weekend of Labor Day along with your family and loved ones. As you might now, today is Independence Day here in Brazil, and it’s always nice to take a break during a work week, even if that means just a single day off, which is always welcome at any time of year, isn’t it? Well, I just watched your video in its entirety and was flabbergasted to see so many slangs out there, which is the first I've seen or heard of them. So, if you're an X generation, then we're in the same boat -- which makes me think I might tend to be cheugy most of the time as well - LOL! Thanks a bundle for this awesome lesson, and I hope you enjoy the rest of the day and have a good remainder of your week. All the best! 😊

    I’m sure someone must have commented this earlier… but “Stan” as in the character in Eminem’s song, is a contraction of “stalker fan”.

      Don't call her ma'am. She's not 85 year old yet.

    A simp is a someone (usually a guy) who puts someone (usually a girl) on a pedestal and bends over backwards for her at the cost of their self respect. Misogynists started calling guys who respect women simps, but that's not really how it's meant to be used. Simp was more focused on guys, but people also call girls simps. Simps are "nice" guys or guys that think they're entitled to a date, relationship, or even sex from a girl because they were "nice." Except Simp is kind of implied that the person is down bad* ("depressingly horny") while the "nice guy" is more subtle and less obvious in comparison. A simp is basically the "nice" guy x10 in intensity.
    But like one of them said, simp can be used positively. "I simp over BigBossBoze's live streams. They're so fun." When you refer to a person as a simp, it's usually negative. Calling yourself a simp over something means you really love it. If a simp or "nice" guy doesn't get the "reward" (a date, relationship, even sex because we all choose our friends based on what they can give us in return for us being such great people and blessing them with our kindness /s) after putting in all this hard work and not getting what they thought they were entitled to, they might become an incel.
    *I think this videos shows what "down bad" means almost perfectly. ua-cam.com/video/3hRtCfomOtM/v-deo.html (Cody Ko - Dudes who are down bad)
