So one of the biggest problems out here is the language barrier. No, this isn't a flash back to abroad, east coast people just have super weird slang. If any of you were contemplating a trip out to the land of maple syrup, here's a survival guide so you can understand people. Or at least the people I hang out with.
mad (adj.): denotes a large quantity. As in "There were mad girls at the party last night"
dome (n.): head. As in the lump 3 feet above your ass. --Remind me to watch A League of Their Own soon.
wicked (adj.): synonymous with "sweet" or "awesome"
fresh (??): still have no idea....
chill (adj.): relaxed, calm
tag sale (n.): what normal people call a garage sale
bomb (adj.): another form of "awesome"
rage (v.): party -- lots different here, but that's the subject for another post
**UPDATE: this week I have learned that "schmutz", ya know what normal people say when you have some crud on your face, here means a woman of loose morals....that was an awkward one to learn.
