Examples from texts

I tell you plainly, gentlemen, that little as I care for the opinion of the world (as the slang goes), I don't choose to submit quietly to slander and malice.
Говорю вам откровенно, джентльмены: хоть я и мало считаюсь с мнением света (как принято выражаться), однако я не намерен спокойно примириться с клеветой и злословьем!

Our kids knew from babyhood all the correct English monosyllables for human anatomy and function; Helen Mayberry had never used slang with Baby Dora; Dora spoke as correctly in front of her children.
Наши дети с детства знали английские термины, описывающие анатомию и функции человеческого организма. Элен Мейбери никогда не прибегала к сленгу, разговаривая с беби Дорой, Дора тоже всегда разговаривала с детьми корректно.

Hardly, again, had we desisted a little when I looked at Lubotshka once more, and gave vent to one of the slang words which we then affected among ourselves - words which always called forth hilarity; and in a moment we were laughing again.
Только что мы немного успокаиваемся, я взглядываю на Любочку и говорю заветное словечко, которое у нас в моде с некоторого времени и которое уже всегда производит смех, и снова мы заливаемся.

Yet it 'crops up'—as our slang goes—my lords and gentlemen and honourable boards, in other fellow-creatures, rather frequently!
Но в том-то и дело, милорды, почтенные господа и члены попечительных советов, что такое безумие "поражает", как у нас принято говорить, и других наших ближних, и довольно часто!

He was disgusted that they all spoke freely about blow jobs, knew ten different slang words for pot, and loved to brag about the stuff they stole or whose cousin was currently residing in a tougher jail.
Ему внушало отвращение и то, как свободно они говорят об «отсосах», и то, что они знают не менее десяти жаргонных названий марихуаны, и то, как они хвалятся тем, что им удавалось украсть, и родственниками, не вылезающими из тюрем строгого режима.

Except where it is adopted as a necessary means of secret communication, the use of a special slang in any employment is probably to be accepted as evidence that the occupation in question is substantially make-believe.
За исключением тех случаев, когда он выбирается как необходимое средство тайной связи, жаргон в каком угодно занятии нужно, вероятно, понимать как свидетельство того, что рассматриваемое занятие оказывается но существу игрой.

Nicole thought maybe you jumped overboard, Dick," he said, "because that little English poule slanged you."
Вы знаете, Дик, Николь боялась, не бросились ли вы часом в воду из-за того, что вас отчехвостила эта английская пигалица.
