Hello!  Our slang word of the day is ”Smart aleck“, which means “a person who thinks he is very smart and demonstrates this fact to others.“⠀ Origin: Americanism, dating from the mid-1800s, probably alluded to a person of this description who was named Alec or Alexander, but his identity has been lost. But possibly it is derived from the name of Aleck Hoag, a 19th-century con man and thief. You need example sentences with pronunciation?

Here’s our video example! Our slang word of the day is ”Smart aleck“, which means “a person who thinks he is very smart and demonstrates this fact to others“. Usage in a movie ("Mulholland Dr."): - Okay. I'm thinking. - No, you're not thinking. You're too busy being a smart aleck to be thinking. Now, I want you to think and stop being a smart aleck.
