Catch Word #105 – Blah blah blah
Here’s an episode for you about slang that should only be spoken in casual conversations, not spoken or written in more formal situations. These slang expressions replace real words. Blah blah blah and yadda yadda yadda are fun words that people use to fill in information when they are telling a story. In this episode, we also teach you about slang you can use when you don’t know or can’t remember a word. This is especially interesting for English learners.
