Introduction
The prevalence and influence of slang words within this school setting have
become significant areas of inquiry, prompting the need for a comprehensive
exploration. This research paper aims to investigate the perceived influence of slang
words in selected areas of GLTNHS. By examining the opinions, and experiences of
students, we seek to understand how these linguistic phenomena impact the school
environment, academic performance, and interpersonal relationships. Additionally, the
study aims to shed light on the potential benefits and drawbacks associated with the
usage of slang words, providing insights that can inform language policies and
educational practices within the school.

Review of Related
Literature
The Philippines boasts a wide-ranging linguistic topography, with 187 indigenous
languages and dialects, as well as the two official tongues of Filipino and English.
Filipino, which is the national language and rooted in Tagalog, has undergone
distinctive transformations over time, and the manner that communication and
interaction have changed throughout time. It Is well known that Slang words are
frequently used in communication today. Slang is a type of informal language that is
used to communicate more quickly and easily among social groups. Today’s youth
tend to utilize a variety of word formations, simplify terms, and create multiple words
with identical meanings. That would benefit us as individuals since our first and
second languages are slowly evolving. Multiple circumstances necessitate the
utilization of a more formal style of language, just as some occasions require
formality so the utilization of more formal language. Also, colloquial language has
two drawbacks. Firstly, it creates a communication barrier for those who are not
initiated. Secondly, because most colloquial language is brief and energetic, with a
preference for one syllable phrases, it encourages the use of clichés rather than
more precise or proper terminology
