  1. I haven't reacted at some non standard word because sims free play is very realistic, they say exactly things you say in your real life. But of course they could say some words that is non standard but I haven't reacted at theses words. Which probably means that it's not that much non standard words.// Maya

  2. These are some none standard words that i think i have found.

    Wastes-avfall, but they mean instead the wasteland in the game.

    Lades-kamrater, it isen’t a standard english word and it means peers in the sentance that they have used it in.

    Simpaks-health syringes. It is not a standard english word, because it is a custom item name that they’ve made and means health syringes in the sentance that they have used it in.

  3. I play fallout shelter and have found two words that I don't recognize as usual English, the words are stimpacks and medbay.
    Both the words are for some kind of medicine for radioactivity and normal injuries.

  4. I think it's more of slang and I'm not sure if it's the thing you are looking for, but the sentence was "If mah kids don't get no education, they gonna get up to no good."
    And then it's words like "sims" and "trade depot" and it's some kind of "buy-and-sell" thing to other players.
