Are there dictionaries of English slang?

Answer

There are definitely dictionaries of slang, but you need to look at the specific region.  Some Australian slang is impossible to understand in other English-speaking countries, and vice-versa.

I'd suggest the Lonely Planet phrasebooks of Australian, British or American English.  Each of these looks at each country's own slang separately.

An easy-access website is www.urbandictionary.com, however be aware that the slang you find there may not be widely-known nor used often.

Best advice for slang is to understand it *after* you hear it used the first time.  Looking for new definitions without knowing when and where to use them may take you in the wrong direction.
