Answer 3

Slang shares at least two of the following traits:

It is markedly lower in prestige than Standard English.
It tends to appear first in the language of groups with low status, who may have little power or responsibility.
It is often taboo and unlikely to be used by people of high status.
It tends to displace conventional terms, either as a shorthand or as a defense against perceptions associated with the conventional term.
