@mafrans8809 8 месяцев назад

I believe part of "based" is also as an ironic opposite of debased (meaning low quality, less valuable). The joke (and a lot of these slang phrases start off as jokes) is that "de-" used as a prefix often refers to having less of a certain quality (think "defrost", "descend", "deactivate"), and so simply removing the prefix from debased would logically make "based" mean "higher quality", even though that's not really how the de- prefix works. A "based opinion" would therefore be one that is of higher quality and more truthworthiness. This doesn't mean you can use debased as an opposite to based though, they're very different words. Slang is tricky.

American slang is completely different to British slang. I i use word rent free and based haha that only words i use from us slang. Only formal American words i use is truck insted of lorrie. In the uk we use dilect slang in the area you are from for example if you'rei n Devon you would say "were you too". In some area be like "hay what you saying" that's like asking how you feel or hows day been.
