1 Introduction
In American English, the language that is the closest to people’s lives and can reflect civilian’s requirements and social features is American slang. As a form of civilian’s language, it absorbs nutrition constantly from the social practice of the public. What’s more, American slang helps to develop the formation of standard national language. It converts past English into today’s popular language; it directly reflects the democratic forces in the new age of America and stimulates innovative spirit.
In the United States, especially after the foundation of the states and the rising of nationalism, Americans had a new understanding of slang. Many scholars spoke highly of American slang, thinking it was a national cultural product with the spirit of democracy. Famous American scholar John Batelite Russell collected some slang vocabulary in his American oral vocabulary, pointing out words can not be preserved in the dictionary but in the process of use. As long as slang in spoken English is used, it will be preserved, so slang is a large complement to the source of American language.
