I pick this article "Sling Slang Slung" because it remind me of the slang words I used to say. When I say them now the youngsters laugh at me because they do not understand what I am saying. When they say some slang words those are all new to me. I would like to learn more on why people like to speak in slang and not in the correct grammar. It is interesting on the words that are being used now is a little harder to know what they really mean.

Child Language Acquisition article is very interesting.
I found that Children use language in the same way regardless of what language they use. Children do not use language like adults, because they are not adults. Is good not to try to correct them because they will learn how to speak correctly on there own. when my little girl was little she used to say "its cold out there."
Children will use languages that are around them. They will speak like their parents and caregivers at first.  Then they learn from other children, I have notice that from my 4 year old nephew.
