Glossary of Generation Z slang

Last updated

Slang used or popularized by Generation Z (Gen Z; generally those born between the late 1990s and late 2000s in the Western world) differs from slang of earlier generations; [1] [2] ease of communication via Internet social media has facilitated its rapid proliferation, creating "an unprecedented variety of linguistic variation". [2] [3] [4]

Contents

Many Gen Z slang terms were not originally coined by Gen Z members but were already in use or simply made more mainstream. Much of what is considered Gen Z slang originates from African-American Vernacular English and ball culture. [2] [5] [6]
