I Am Confused About Some Things That Are Going On In My Life

I'm confused... I just got a new job but my team mates conversation's are not understandable they use word's that not everyone knows or heard of before, also the topic of the convo's are very different (most of the time I don't know what they are on about) When they ask my opinion on something or get me involved in the convo I just nod along to what they say and pretend to understand but never really get the topic. I've asked a few times but even when they explain it I still don't know what's going on!!

Should I just keep what I'm doing? - Pretending to know..Please let me know your thoughts on this!

Nothing wrong is just watching and listening. Listen not to reply but to understand. If the understanding is hard, keep watching, listening and it will come to you what the heck they are saying. It's got to be all new and different for you. Hang in there. Enjoy the experience if possible.

@Echoing Thank you! But most of the topic's aren't really to do with work so I'm unsure if I need to learn about what they saying since it's not work related and a lot of their topic's are so confusing. I'm a lot younger than them but I don't think that's the problem... Maybe because I'm new to the team and they've worked as a team for a while; hopefully I'll understand them soon!
