Literature from other parts of the world sometimes contains words that stump me. Literature from my own part of the world does, too, for that matter. So I took the slanguage quiz to find out just how much foreign/domestic slang is in my vocabulary. What slanguage do you speak?

lol, I got zip for Canadian slang, I am shocked that I only got %75 for oz slang, but i must give this quiz credit, it picked us both by location.
ahh *light came on*, I do understand how I only got %75, you must remind me to tell you my camel toe story one day...
The prison slangs a bit odd, from what I know it changes from clink to clink, or boob to boob, or pen to pen, or bay to bay, in fact we can often pick where or when someone served time by their slang. Some terms are used in most prisons but it has been known to change over a period of time..
;) now dont ask me how I know all that
update: I went back to aim for prison slang, I got only %25 for it that time, %50 for OZ slang, but, the realy amusing thing was my Canadian slang went up from %0 on my real go to %50 when I thought I was aiming for prison slang, I guess I dont know as much as I thought I did. :)
great quiz M's!
