Bring us your expression

What they say where you're from and isn't in the Slangtionary yet

You are adding to Cut corners. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Say it out loud, 3 to 60 seconds. Reading it is not the same as hearing it.

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.
