Consider your context. If you are, say, a prosecutor speaking to a 
court, or a political candidate giving a speech, you probably don't want 
to use any slang.

In an informal context, as between friends who are drinking together as 
they do every day, you can just use the slang word and it'll be 
recognized as slang.
