Colloquial language

Colloquial language is when we use words and phrases that are very common in everyday conversations. It's like talking with our friends or family members when we use words that we wouldn't use in formal writing or presentations.

For example, if you were telling a story to your friends, you might say something like "I totally freaked out when I saw that spider!" instead of "I was startled when I saw the spider."

Colloquial language can also vary depending on where you are from or the people you are talking to. Different regions and groups might have different ways of talking, with unique slang or phrases that are specific to them.

But it's important to remember that colloquial language might not always be appropriate in certain situations. For example, in school or at work, we need to use more formal language to communicate clearly and professionally. So it's important to know when to use colloquial language and when to use more formal language.
