I’m living in the U.S now, so I’d like to give you all a couple of American slang words and expressions:
a “no-no” : This is kind of an adjective. when you say that something is a no-no. you mean that it is strictly not allowed.
“Shoddy” :means poorly done> e.g. The kid did a shoddy work for tidying up his room because it’s his first time.
That was such a long example, but that’s the best I could come up with :)
I hope this was helpful :D
