Generation Alpha reshapes slang with new terms like skibidi and capaholic

Generation Alpha is rapidly changing slang, introducing terms like "skibidi," which comes from a popular meme. Older slang words such as "slay" are falling out of use, reflecting the influence of social media and online culture. Linguistics expert Dr. Howard Manns notes that while slang evolves quickly, it has always changed over time. Some phrases, like "cool" and "booze," have persisted for centuries, showing that slang can become part of everyday language. Dr. Manns highlights the creativity of Gen Alpha in using and adapting slang. New terms like "capaholic" and "yapaholic" demonstrate their innovative approach to language, suggesting that the tradition of slang remains vibrant and dynamic.
