Description

A slang is a vocabulary of an informal register, common in verbal conversation but avoided in formal writing. It also sometimes refers to the language generally exclusive to the members of particular in-groups in order to establish group identity, exclude outsiders, or both. The word itself came about in the 18th century and has been defined in multiple ways since its conception.

குறுமொழி (slang) என்பது ஒரு மொழியிலோ அல்லது கிளைமொழிகளிலோ பொது வழக்கில் இல்லாத சொற்களையும் வெளிப்பாடுகளையும் குறிக்கும். ஒரு குறிப்பிட்ட குழுவினர் தமக்குள் பேசிக்கொள்வதற்காகவே இதனைச் செயற்கையாக உருவாக்கிக் கொள்கின்றனர். சமூகத்தினால் ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளப்படாத துறைகளில் பெரும்பாலும் குறுமொழிகள் வழங்குவதைக் காணலாம். திருடர்கள், ஏமாற்றிப் பிழைப்போர், கடத்தல்காரர் போன்றோரின் குழுக்கள் இவற்றுள் அடங்கும் ஒரு குழுவினர் தம்மைத் தனியாக அடையாளப்படுத்திக் கொள்வதற்கும் குறுமொழியைப் பயன்படுத்துகிறார்கள். கல்லூரி மாணவர்கள் போன்றோர் இவ்வாறானவர்களுள் அடங்குவர். குறும்பு மனப்பான்மையாலும், உயர்வு மனப்பான்மையாலும் கூடக் குறுமொழிகள் படைக்கப்படுகின்றன.
