In Dictionary Urban we think that many students complain that the English spoken in the street is not taught in the academies of this country. It is absolutely true. English is a very creative language and rich in expressions, the famous idioms. How many students use contractions - which are indicators of the colloquial register - regularly and accurately? In my experience, few. And let's not talk about more complicated expressions, which include images or metaphors.
I have compiled this small urban dictionary of colloquial terms to alleviate this situation as much as possible. In the most doubtful cases, I have put the phonetic transcription with the intention of facilitating the pronunciation (in American English). Abbreviations are the usual abbreviations of a dictionary.
I hope you enjoy it, every week we will be publishing expressions.
