My Language

Posted by Obie Hazzard in English 2 - Pahomov - A on

My  language  defines  me  as  who  I  am.  It  depends  who  I  am  around,  if  I  am  with  my  cousins  

or  friends  I  might  say  different  things. I  might  talk  in  different  style  then  I  would  to  adults.  If  I  

am  around  my  family  I  will  use  slang.  If  I  am  at  a  job  interview  I  will  us  my  best  

vocabulary.  I  know  when  and  where  I  should  use  appropriate  vocabulary.  Some  people  think  

that  it's  always  okay  to  use  slang  even  at  job  interviews.  It  is  always  good  to  use  good  vocabulary  every  once  in  awhile. Some  people  can’t  tell  when  they  need  to  use  proper  vocab.  People  think  that  at  job  interviews  they  can  say  or  even  do  there,  like  kicking  their  feet  up  at desks/tables.  If  you  would  like  to  work  somewhere at  a  good  job  you  need  to  look  the  part,  give  them  a  reason  to  hire  you. Some  people  complain  they  don’t  have  a  stable  job  or  they  want  something  better  than  what  they  have,  but  they  act  like  they  have  no  sense  when  they  have  a  great  job  interview.  People  really  need  to  know  when  and  when  not  to  use  slang.   If  you  use  slang  during  a  job  interview  they  might  throw  you  out  or  even  give  you  a  small  amount  of  work  time. If  I  am  with  my  brothers  and  sisters  then  I  will  use  a lot  of  slang  since  they  would  know  what  i’m  saying.  I  talk  different  around  my siblings. I would say different things to different age groups.  I might say yo can you get that jawn over there. In my family we say yo a lot. In will always try not to use so much slang around adults in some situations people should not use slang. If I am around my father then I would use more slang , but if I am around  my mother I will maybe just use “yo”. If I am around my entire family then I will barely talk but once i’m am around my cousins (or cuzzos as I like to call them) I will talk like a baby when it is excited about something. I always know when to use slang and when not to use slang because when I am around my friends but will you saying that they know what I am saying but if I am around my parents that I don't use slang.
