55 most common English slang words
Imagine a dialogue between two friends. They talk about a visit to the theatre, and not the classical grammatical construction is used, but something else.

- I was able to get us the best theater seats this weekend!
- Wicked! Thank you. I'm really excited!
- ...! Thanks, I look forward to! nine0008
And what do you think "wicked" means? No, it's not "bad" or "mean" at all. In fact, "wicked" is a slang term, and it means "Brilliant!" or "Awesome!"
Slang, otherwise jargon, is a series of words and expressions that originated in a separate group of people. Even within the same city, slang varies from region to region, what can we say about the slang of Britain and Australia, Canada and South Africa,
People use slang when they want their speech to sound less dry, less formal. Slang allows you to relax and feel freer. In this article, we will give a list of the 55 most popular slang expressions in the English language. nine0003

"I live as if in a dream…", or Claude the Magnificent
This exhibition is a total immersive experience. That is, its task is to create an immersive effect. Presence.
Purpose and meaning - immersion in the world of Claude Monet. An innovator, a rebel, a great singer of the beauty of this difficult and unkind world. nine0606 Photo: Exhibition Hub - Mario IlcampoFloating through the halls in a low, pastoral building called "The Cube" in Holon, looking, diving. I went to this "immersion session" with my colleagues writing in Hebrew. I arrived very early, walked around Perez Park. Then she sat on a green bench, very much in the style of Monet's houses, Monet's gardens. I saw how very different people enter the island, the territory of Claude Monet. Then we walked in a small group, sat on a sofa in a room imitating the artist's study. They discussed life and paintings. nine0003

... The son of a grocer, not a very diligent student at school, but clearly inclined towards drawing, humor, originality - Claude Monet devoted himself to painting very early and without a trace. He was not afraid of poverty, or ruthless critics, or temporary rejection of the public. He moved forward - and worked all his life. Heroically. Sacrificially. Passionately…
We exit the hall onto the platform. Train station "Saint-Lazare". His artist painted many times. Wondering and delving into the details of this phenomenon of progress. As well as smoke, noise, harbinger of speeds and horizons. nine0003
And here is his famous Umbrella Walk. The copy is rough, like almost everything here. Hanging in the wrong place. But it reminds of the swaying grass, the French sun and the warm sky. Be that as it may, even the fact that people devote time to the artist, his life and subjects is important. Healthy.
...Here, mother brought a young artist, and she, magnetized to a palette, standing on a stand, is thinking about something, bowing her blond head. But the couple talks about how they went to Giverny, this unique world of Monet. After all, he created there not only his paintings, but also his unique garden. And he embodied his dreams and his ideas about how the beauty of nature merges with the beauty of art. They are one. They are fabulous...
Visitors walk along the Japanese bridge, stand at the edge of the pond. They admire various details from the biography, from Monet's creative laboratory. Water lilies on the pond, poplars - at different times of the day in different moods, in different light. Then it was an innovation, a real revolution - to use only natural light. To create your works in the open air, without locking yourself in the framework, within the workshop. The facade of the cathedral, a haystack, a poppy field ... These are the heroes of paintings, light symphonies by Claude Monet.
Photo: Exhibition Hub - Mario IlcampoAt the exhibition in Holon it is very difficult, of course, to understand the greatness of the artist and to fully experience the spirituality and delight in front of the magic of Monet. But you can touch it, and at least a little bring into your soul, into your thoughts its grandiosity, innovation; think about your attitude to the nature of painting, art in general. You have to start somewhere.
And dreams of seeing everything with your own eyes, being in a museum hall where the originals are collected, flipping through books that tell about Monet more expressively and thoroughly than on the walls of the current immersive exhibition-show, are already good. nine0003
I was especially interested in that fragment of the exposition where you put on glasses and find yourself in Giverny. The house opens the doors, the snow spreads with a bluish-lilac splendor under your feet. Cornflowers are in the gold of the ears. Wine-scarlet poppies with black cores bow their heads under the solemn illumination of the sun, sky, summer day. It seems that the gate is now creaking. A man with a big white beard and a wide-brimmed hat will come out and invite you to talk...
After the exhibition I dreamed of a house in the depths of a royal garden, where roses shine so brightly, where dense greenery rhymes with shadow and light in different ways. The ironic, demanding, traditionally limited critic Louis Leroy wanted to laugh, to print the delights of innovators with a sarcastic pen, and above all, the pink dawn over the Thames by Claude Monet. Leroy said that this is some kind of "impressionism", "impressionism". I wanted to offend - but it turned out differently. The word has become a title. Mocking has become a formula, a name, a term behind which now and forever stands an unconditional and sincere, eccentric and warm, charming world. Live like life itself. nine0003
Claude Monet lived to be 86 years old. He created his own, undividedly belonging to him kingdom of light. Wrote marvelous lines in the book of impressionism. I was happy, I was also sad. He is so famous all over the world that any show connected with him, any attempt to present his life and paintings to the public, to bring his flying strokes closer and present them to an attentive eye, is interesting.
Is this immersive story worth going for? I don't have a clear answer. But as a push, as a first step for neophytes, this walk and quite interestingly spent one and a half hours (the maximum that is needed for sufficient familiarization) will do. nine0605 New exhibition at the Museum of Russian Art.
