Poko Ponders: Slang

Historically, slang was seen as vocabulary used by those of a lower class.

Today, however, we see it in books, we hear it on television, and we use it in our everyday communication with others.

When did that change? SaltWire host, Sarah Poko, spoke to Dr. Eric Henry, a linguistic anthropologist at Saint Mary's University, about the evolution of slang through the ages.
