British slang is a niche of its own, evolving and transforming and adaptingfrom city to city and from year to year, just as the English language itself hasdone. While American slang has become nearly universal with the influx of TVshows, films, and other media filling the screens of a significant majority ofthe media-viewing global population, there is so much more available once youdig beneath the surface of British slang terms and can discover some real gemsbeneath the surface。

英国俚语是有着自己独特的地位的，从演化到转换再到年复一年经过不同城市的特色化，它的变化过程正如英语这门语言一样。而美国俚语经过电视节目，电影和其它各种媒体在荧屏上的大量曝光，使得全球大众都已经司空见惯，变得非常普遍了。如果你要深入挖掘英国俚语，你会发现这个派系下面有太多丰富的空间，也许你还会发现英国俚语表面下掩藏的更深层的精华。
