The English slanguage is composed of all the words or phrases that aren't really words, yet get used on a regular basis through either texting or talking. For example, "brah" or "legit" or "no cap" are part of slanguage.
Dude, they really need to make a dictionary for the English slanguage. Half the time I don't know what people are talking about.
All the cool kids talk in slanguage, no one uses proper grammar any more.

Slanguage is how people talk when they want to try and sound "gangsta," or tough even though usually it just comes out sounding stupid.
Joey: Yo my man how you doin' today?
Jay: Stop talking slanguage, man.
Joey: Boy whatchu talkin' bout, I ain't talkin' no slanguage.

When slang words & phrases that are either made up from scratch or the original meanings of actual words take on a new meaning, become part of common daily language and even get incorporated into official sources of language like the dictionary or thesaurus.

“American youth are well known to use slanguage into their everyday speech patterns”—-
Examples:

fubar, wasted, hammered, lit, stoned are all terms to denote people are high or drunk
cap/cappin, dis, dig, thrash, savage, rip are terms that can connote insults, verbally ripping on someone.
moded is embarrassed, wrong, made a mistake, oops.
hella, gnarly, GOAT, bummer are terms to describe how amazing or crappy something is. GOAT=greatest of all times, hella is super/awesome, bummer is a disappointment, doh is shock or surprise!
Periodt…end of story. Done!
