I guage vs Slang Yo, man! or Hey, girl! are often common ways we like to greet our friends. But once we step into the world of foreign languages, it completely changes. We learn to say, Hola, Guten Tag, Bon jour or even Salve. And pretty soon, they all begin to sound normal as students yell them across the halls. Although Cool isn't a particular word in a foreign language, Green Run students devote about an hour of their day to learn a language other than English. This gives them a chance to leam a second language while making new friends through dialogues and skits. During the year, students learn different rules for speaking and writing, which they don't exactly consider Awesome Being taught the cultures and customs on a bright, sunny day - perfect for going to the beach, can also be described as a Bummer. But when it comes to Culture Days and field trips from ChifChi's all the way to Europe, the word Rad may come to mind. Naturally, these are fun-loving students but they all know the importance of taking a foreign language as well as its benefits. It can help them acquire the Academic Diploma which requires three years of one language or two years each of two languages. And once the diploma is acquired, they can easily become accepted into many of the good colleges. So it may not sound like it when you hear Killer, Rad, Awef some, or even Bogus , these students show they really do care about their education, even if it does mean work. And that also includes tempoarily leaving their world ofslang behind as they enter a foreign language class. x, I 6 av .1 Q-rf' Wx .4 f I Q, ' l - 'fx A. '.
