Buffy has introduced new slang terms and phrases in nearly every episode, many of them formed in the usual ways, some of them at the crest of new formative tendencies. The show incorporates familiar slang, too; the familiar and newly coined slayer slang together compose a particularly vivid snapshot of current American teen slang. —Michael Adams —Slayer Slang (Do You Speak American?)
I’m trying to incorporate more grammar and study of the English language into my Intro to English Studies course, and this website (the companion to a PBS show) looks very promising.
