The following slang words are carefully selected. When I was studying in America, I often listened to what Americans said. These are all authentic American words, which Americans speak badly, but they are not mentioned in the textbook. After reading them, I can show them off in front of Americans. ! !
1. Kick-ass is great.
Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're great.
A: Wow! You repaired my computer in less than ten minutes! You're amazing!

B: Yes! I am awesome!
"Kick ass" not only literally means "kick ass", but also means "awesome and defeated". For example, when someone stood you up during "ass kicking", you were angry. You could say, "I'm going to kick his ass." I have to kick his ass. When "awesome" is used, it is used as in the above example. "Kicking ass" can also be used to "hit people". For example, someone has always been better than you in some way, and finally one day you are better than him, so you can say, "Hahahaha ... I kicked your ass." . If you think "ass" is too ugly, use "ass"!
Ass or ass, which means ass. Just write these things, but butt is more formal. Why are daisies always vulgar rubbish of socialist spiritual civilization? We aspiring young people in new China should keep our eyes open and distinguish between right and wrong! Hehehehehe ... Haihong Notes
