Today I learned a new word: Frosh
Frosh means freshman (freshmen). I think ... although I've looked up in the Urban Dictionary and there are several different meanings. I'm not sure if it is used only in this area or in North America. If you know it, tell me please.
In New Zealand, says it is not definitive. In New Zealand we use the word not freshman. Someone who is studying in first year at the University freshman student (?) Called or freshmen. One could say, for example: They look like freshmen.
are in North America, but terms like freshman and some other uses.
This is from Wikipedia:
In a four-year education system, students are usually referred to as a freshman (first year) and sophomores (second year), juniors (third year) and seniors (fourth year), depending on the academic year. After the fourth year the students just in the fourth year students in the fifth year, etc. divided.
This here is some of what has been offered for sale.
I is a Frosh. (I is a freshmen.)
I've seen those T-shirts in New Zealand, which is: I is a university student. course is the right way: I am (I am), it's just a joke because university students are regarded as intelligent, to wear such a shirt is a way of making fun of himself.
