Vice-versa
Meaning
The reverse of the previous statement, with the main items transposed. It derives from Latin, with the translation being 'the other way round' or 'the position being reversed', but is now fully absorbed into English.
It is usually used to imply the complement of a statement without expressing as much in words. For example:
"Fish can't live where we are most comfortable, and vice-versa".
Often mispronounced, as vie-sa ver-sa, and consequently misspelt as visa versa. It should be pronounced vie-si ver-sa.

Vice versa is a very old word and is not slang.
It comes from the Latin vicus-to change and versa- to turn.
It means to turn around or reverse a statement.
Example:
We like the Jones' and vice versa. (They like us too.)
We have a trade agreement with Japan and vice versa.

<>Vice versa is a more-or-less slang term meaning "the reverse" or "the opposite of." An example would be:
"Would it be better if he came to me, or vice versa?"

It is the reverse of what we have written.
In dictionary terms this means :
in reverse order from that stated; conversely:
She dislikes me, and vice versa.

It means that the reverse of what you said is also valid.
As in
The train goes from London to York and vice versa.
Meaning it travels both ways
Literal translation from Latin is "with position turned"
EDIT
bbs example is wrong as an idiom cannot contain several books of proverbs
cooldudes answer is wrong as it's not slang, it's latin
