11. Mec
The word mec is yet another commonly used slang term, and refers to boyfriends as well as guys in general. For example:Il est beau, ce mec. That guy is good-looking. Tu viens avec ton mec? Are you bringing your boyfriend? Another type of slang that you might come across is verlan, which are French words spelled backwards, and often incorrectly, in slang. And while this concept might seem a bit intimidating at first, you will find that you pick it up in no time at all and probably without even realizing.
12. Meuf
Our first example is meuf, which was originally femme. And, as with the word femme, this term can be used to refer to a female, or your girlfriend, although it can have pejorative connotations.
13. Relou
Our second example is relou, the verlan for lourd (heavy or taxing) and equivalent of chiant, which means annoying/exasperating. Here’s an example: C’est trop relou! That sucks!
