Street Speak Book 3
The value of American slang in learning English
How important is American slang in speaking and understanding English in the U.S.? Very! That’s because native speakers don’t use the academic English most language students are taught in school. American slang words, colloquialisms and jargon are so embedded in American popular (or more
commonly, 「pop」) culture, it’s impossible to avoid. And why would you want to? Everyone uses them!
They’re spoken by teens, tweens, adults, and used in advertisements, the workplace, movies, TV shows, books and in everyday conversations.
Communications media like texting and Twitter make it difficult for
non-native speakers of English to figure out popular shortcuts like 「LOL,」
「BRB,」 or 「OMG!』」 Imagine how confusing 「Cut it out!」 or 「Break a leg!」 is to a language student with no knowledge of American slang!
Here’s where the Slangman language books come in! Now you can
learn that part of the English language, the real English, usually reserved
only for native speakers…until now!
開開心心學英語，今天要給大家介紹一本有趣的書，「street speak"，我們看美劇總是摸不著頭腦，多年英語學下來美劇中聽懂的還是寥寥無幾的單詞，看看這兩人的對話：
Tom：hey, Amy , how was the party last night?
Amy: well, it's quite fun, I really had a blast !
"Have a blast "What does that mean?
因為在美國日常生活中，大伙兒都說習語和俚語，而我們學的只是標準英語，這本「Street Speak"顧名思義街頭用語，讓你學到更多美國人地道表達，通過小遊戲記單詞，掌握俚語使用，再放到實際情景中，展開不同的對話場景，讓你體會語言使用的意境，大量的圖片，和有趣的遊戲，讓你輕鬆掌握，說地道英語。
本書分為三部，適用於初高中，大學，成人學習，作為教材也是不錯的選擇,在美國以及其他國家一些學校都將此書作為課本學習。
