در این درس، عامیانه ضروری آمریکایی که با حرف C شروع می شود را با مثال هایی پوشش می دهیم. به طور کلی، زبان عامیانه بیشتر در گفتگوهای خیابانی معمولی در میان آمریکایی ها استفاده می شود، به طوری که حتی افراد بین المللی (غیر بومی) ساکن ایالات متحده ممکن است آنها را درک نکنند. بنابراین، شما ممکن است از زبان عامیانه در مکالمات معمولی روزانه خود به خصوص با آمریکایی ها استفاده کنید. فقط مراقب باشید و در مکالمات رسمی مانند مصاحبه های شغلی یا جلسات کاری از زبان عامیانه استفاده نکنید.
