Despite English being my native language, I grew up speaking Spanish and my English isn’t that good. I constantly forget the meanings of phrases or don’t understand them.

I have a sister named Lena (14F). Her on-again, off-again “friend” Ashlyn(14F) received a note on her locker reading “HANG DEAD” and showed people, including Lena. Is this a threat to hang herself or something?

    It could be a threat, or it could mean something like “hang in there” or “stay the course” (“dead” as in dead straight, dead reckoning or similar), possibly from some specialised vocabulary. Is there more context?
