Are you in touch with the youth? What are some new words or expressions that 13-18 year olds use nowadays?
13-18 year olds are nonverbal bc they're babies
Really I am out of touch it seems ...
Not really. Is "stan" one (as in obsessive fan)? I know it comes from a character in an Eminem song (released before most Zoomers were even born), but it only seems to have become popular in the last couple of years. But regardless of whether it's a Zoomer or a Millennial word, this Millennial/32-year-old boomer finds it very annoying, especially when used as a verb: "I stan (celebrity)".
hmm, I was born in the year that is right on the border of millenial/gen Z so I feel like I'm fairly in touch with a lot of young people internet language culture? but maybe the 13-18 group is more niche because I can't think of any of those off the top of my head. or maybe I would recognize them if I heard em
A few years ago I overheard some hoodlums referring to the backyard area in-between where I live and my neighbors houses as "a trap" so I had to Google it and read what it meant on Urban Dictionary. I also didn't know what "yeets" was for the longest time so no, I'm not "with the times".
They enjoy to say : Ja, keine Ahnung.
