This is one of problem subjects in formation and development of the speech of youth. The deep changes happening in society conduct the contradictions penetrating to our era, in fact, to change like culture.

Nearly thirty years ago the Russian researcher K.S.Gorbatsevich in his research “Standards of the Modern Russian Literary Language” wrote that modern Russian language “dazzles” with new expressions and words, sometimes not the correct. Even more often, there are disputes among linguists on standards of Russian, about as far as they are applicable to today's conditions of communication more rigidly.

 Research objective is studying of use of slangs and jargons in oral speech of youth, and an assessment of positive and negative sides of use of slangs and a jargon. More and more in the speech the youth uses foreign words, it filled it with jargons, swear words, and beautiful words remain to lie somewhere on shelves. Unfortunately, the words borrowed from language of the convicts and criminals badgered, humiliated and the embittered people, very often occur in our speech. With use of an offensive language becomes primitive not only language, but also outlook. From nasty words to bad thoughts, from nasty thoughts to negative actions. Keeps unconditional statements of slangs and jargon in our speech to accustoming to it which consequence there will be a normal absorption by youth of the damaged speech of a speaker to whom in fact we have to act against. Accustoming to use of slangs will eradicate from our daily speech of the correct, full words, a lexicon because of which we will gradually lose the speech, which we possess now. The essence of my scientific work consists in the analysis of the speech, and during the analysis of performance against the exceeded use of slangs and a correcting of the speech of youth for preservation of a lexical stock of language.

For achievement of the purpose of research there solved some problems, such as:

1.    To analyze the scientific works this carried out until this time;

2.    To open positive and negative roles of a slang in oral speech;

3.    To prove relevance of research by means of social poll;

4.    To draw conclusions from own supervision.

            For the solution of objectives, there used different methods research provided below. In this work, we used the descriptive method including methods of supervision over the facts:

1. Comparison and comparison;

2. Supervision over a broadcasting of radio and telecasts;

3. Analysis of literature and articles in magazines;

4. Questioning of youth.

 During methods of research, we chose oral speech of youth of the South Kazakhstan region as object of research. Students of the South Kazakhstan State pedagogical institute, and schoolchildren participated in it.

Speaking about speech culture of youth, each new generation guided by already existing texts, steady turns of speech, and ways of registration of thought.

The youth culture is the, on what not the similar world. It differs from the adult expressional, sometimes even a sharp and rough manner to express thoughts, feelings, a certain verbal absurdity, which only young people can use, courageous and resolute, incited against the whole world and created the unique world. Because of it is emergence of a youth slang and slang.

Most of researchers agrees in opinion that the problem based on too active penetration into the literary language of spoken, colloquial language.

Especially allocate a youth slang, including it with responsible that language threatened by dying, and calling for resolute fight against it. Let's take, for example, youth magazines of which all "advanced" youth becomes engrossed in reading, and from the first pages we read (татуха, шмотки, депрессовать, баскет, чел, шариться) and we can continue the list indefinitely.

Slang (from English word “slang”) - a set of special words or new values of already existing words used in various groups of people (professional, public, age etc.).

In English lexicography, the term “slang” was widely adopted approximately at the beginning of the XIX century. The etymology represented to of this word disputable. Studying of slang was influenced by English-speaking culture.

The concept “slang” mixes up with such concepts as “a dialecticism”, “a  jargon”, “a vulgarism”,  “informal conversation”, “popular speech”.

Many words and turns, which began the existence as slang strongly, were included now into the literary language. The words such as “шумиха”, “шпаргалка”, “провалиться” (in value “fail”) can be examples in Russian [1].

Unlike colloquial expressions, the slang is used actively in the speech also by educated people, representatives certain age or professional. Often it just also emphasizes belonging to a certain group of people. A well-known example - a youth slang.

There are some types of slangs in speaking: Theatrical slang, Army slang, Journalistic slang, Computer slang, Game slang, Network slang, Youth slang [2.]

There is a large number of sources of replenishment of a youth slang. The modern generation uses slangs for designation of new realities, subjects, the phenomena. The slang does not remain to constants. With change of one fashionable phenomenon by another, old words are forgotten, others succeed them. This process takes place very promptly.

The youth slang is called often a slang (from English slang) or a slang (from from French “argot”). The youth slang is similar to its carriers - it sharp, loud, impudent. There are a school slang, a student's slang, an army slang, a slang of musicians, a slang of athletes, a slang of dealers, a computer slang, a slang of addicts etc. The slang (from French “jargon”) is a set of features of the informal conversation arising among the people who are in the similar professional and living conditions united by a community of interests, joint time forwarding [3, 25].

During research of studying of youth slang it is important to define the reasons of distribution of slang.

The reasons of the use of a slang in the speech of youth:

a) for achievement of a certain social status in group on the basis of acceptance of its social and moral values;

b) for an entertainment and pleasure;

c) for demonstration of sharpness of the mind;

d) for avoidance of daily banality of the use of words of the literary language, aspiration to bigger expressivity of the speech;

e) for drawing attention to own person.

As show analyses of references and our supervision, now a so-called general slang - the underestimated style of the speech which is washing away both standards of language, and norm of speech etiquette - becomes habitual not only in daily communication. However, it is possible to tell that slangs and slang influences cultural development of the speech, and of course, positive and negative sides of use of such forms in communication and others are allocated. Positive sides:

1. The slang is a mask, game, and attempt to overcome not the bright ordinary.

2. The slang is constantly updated.

3. The slang is emotionally painted.

 In addition, there are negative sides of use of slangs and a slang in conversation among youth.

1. The slang is limited thematically.

2. The slang cannot be a basis of national culture.

3. Slang words have an indistinct lexical meaning and cannot transfer exact information.

4. The slang demands from a speaker of knowledge of a foreign language, which is the person who does not know a foreign language from which it was, formed this or that slang perhaps will have difficulties at its use to destination.

5. The slang limits lexical opportunities of the speech of the person, adapting it for use of a slang in many cases of life, thus impoverishing its lexical stock.

6. The slang reduces communication to primitive communication which consequence the monotonous speech of a speaker deprived of versatile coloring and eloquence will be.

This analysis shows that in existence of a youth slang there are also positive sides, though them and less, than negative. However, negative sides bear pernicious character in development of the speech, and also is acquired and absorbed by youth.

In summary, it would be desirable to tell that my opinion on a youth slang the negative. The youth slang was, is and, probably, will be always. In spite of the fact that the majority of youth used in their speech the slangs, we representatives of the senior generation should be tired to teach them to use slangs in the speech. We do it so for not only because this slovenly use at conversation in Russian, which is rather rich, flexible and many-sided but also because, simply means of usual language quite are enough for us. Moreover, we do not need use of this artificially created speech layer. Nevertheless, most of teenagers live in “their” other world, with the tendencies, habits and manners, gestures and … words. We conducted survey among students of our institute and schoolchildren from schools. It became clear that the vast majority of teenagers are positive to a youth slang; only some told that they try not to use it and stated the negative or negative relation to it.
