Well there is no universal slang for the term to get drunk . In each country the slang is different . Like in my country Jamaica they say " he is wasted , tipsy , he feels nice etc" . So it just depends on the country you are from and the terms they use . We also have a dialect here in Jamaica so some phrases they'd use is " the man gaaan breeda" to state that he is extremely drunk .

As Kelsey stated, there are many alternative ways to express drunkenness, and they will depend on the country and region you're in. Some I've heard are: More formal: To be inebriated, to be under the influence, to be intoxicated. To be very drunk: To be wasted, to be sloshed, to be gone, to be off one's face, to be destroyed, to be shit-faced, to be trashed. To be a little drunk: To be tipsy, to be high, to be nice, to be tight.

This could very well be a neverending story. :) Here are a few more adjectives and expressions: maggoted, munted, under the table, half-cut, three sheets to the wind, and trolleyed.

Very drunk - legless, rat-arsed, a bit the worse for wear, wasted. At least in my neck of the woods these phrases are fairly common.
