slang 1

Slang is vocabulary (words, phrases, and linguistic usages) of an informal register, common in spoken conversation but avoided in formal writing. It also sometimes refers to the language exclusive to the members of particular in-groups in order to establish group identity, exclude outsiders, or both. 

Popularized in English during the mid-18th century, “slang” referred specifically to the lexicon of tramps and thieves. It is most likely Nordic in origin, derived from the old phrase slengja kjeften, which literally meant “to sling the jaw” (κρεμάω το σαγόνι) but which carried the implication “to abuse with words.”

Slang: Yiddish in movies

 

So...a common practice for most foreign students is watching english movies or tv series. Binging on them, to be more accurate. 

When we zero in on american cinema, we may observe that there are many phrases and words repeatedly used that do not sound English. Such as "Klutz" or "Tuches".

And they are not. So where do they come from? Well they are actually Yiddish. A language spoken by Ashkenazi Jews — Jews from Central and Eastern Europe. But, again, most of us do not have  experience with the enigma known as Yiddish and the only other instances we have heard of it has been in pop culture references such as SNL skits or other television shows. 

First of all, though, "how come"? Little do people know, but every major Hollywood studio was actually founded by a group of European Jews. The Oscar award? Founded by Louis B. Mayer — a Jew. The chairmans of Paramount Pictures, the Walt Disney  Co., Sony Pictures, Warner Bros., CBS Corp., MBM and NBC Universal? All Jewish. With all those Jews running those major corporations, it’s no wonder most people’s only experience with Yiddish comes from movies and T.V. shows.

So, let's break down some of those phrases and words:

Oy vey—An expression of woe, as in “Oy vey, we left the gefilte fish (Το ψάρι Gefilte είναι ένα πιάτο που παρασκευάζεται από ένα μείγμα αλεσμένων ψαριών χωρίς κόκαλα, όπως κυπρίνος, λευκόψαρο ή λούτσος. Σερβίρεται παραδοσιακά ως ορεκτικό από εβραϊκά νοικοκυριά Ασκενάζι) at the grocery store!”

Putz —A jerk, or a self-made fool, but this word literally means penis.

Schmuck (shmuck)—A jerk, or a self-made fool, but this word literally means penis.

Tuches (tuchis) — Butt, behind, sometimes shortened to tush or tushy.

Klutz — A clumsy person

Slang: "Florida man"

 

Florida Man is an Internet meme popularized in 2013. 

"Florida Man" refers to an alleged prevalence (συχνότητα) of male persons performing irrational or absurd actions in the US state of Florida. Essentially, a keyword used a lot to describe all the weird news stories about random Floridians committing weird and dumb crimes, due to the state law -regarding freedom of the press - about the fact that every police or court case must be public. 

Most of these weird stories, however, are related to white Florida men, the police and drugs. Due to this, this is why people outside Florida hate Florida. Can also be used as Florida Woman.
