Are they speaking in English?

Well, of course they are speaking English, but the language is seems to be so different, as if they have their language of their own.

Now, I couldn't understand a word of the conversation, could you?

So I thought, It's time for me to decode what teenagers say and what they actually mean, because I'm sure all you parents out there, you definitely want to know what conversations they're having with their friends.

So here in this session today, I'm gonna help you with many words that the teenagers talk.

So what, exactly their minds say, Stay tuned with me.

I am now to go while we have a fun lesson on learning the words that teenagers love Theo way.

OK, here's the 1st 1 that is babe.

That's B A E.

What it actually means.

Well, it's a shot form off before anyone else.

Yes, get me substituted in place off babe, our baby.

It is also used to refer to someone who's really sexy.

So he's my baby.

She's my babe.

Now, if you are having dinner with your best friend, and, uh, you obviously consider him or her to be unlike bestest friend like B F F.

You know, best friends forever kinds.

So how do you use this?

Well, you can say that I am hanging out with my baby tonight.

That's how teenagers used this word.

Well, let's have a look at another word that the teenagers love to use that sport now what it actually means.

T edge ot thought.

That's how it's pronounced, but it's a shocked form for that hole over there.

Now.

It's used to talk about a person you don't like or anyone who acts in a way.

You don't think it's good if you are refering to a girl in your class whom you don't like.

She gossips too much, and she is too bitchy.

She's definitely not liked by many people, so you're gonna say she's really a thought.

She just can't keep her mouth shut.

So that's how the teenagers talk.

Well, here's the next one throwing shade.

No.

One.

Teenagers say that well, they actually means that someone has called them out publicly are put them on blast.

So if your 13 year old is tired off a teacher calling her out in the class because she didn't do her homework.

Or she didn't finish her project on time, that she might just say that Mrs Collins threw shade at me just because I couldn't complete the entire home.

Berg.

Or you can say that this girl in my claws will.

She threw shade at me because I didn't get her stuff that I was supposed to return it to her.

So which means that she called her out publicly.

Yes, the next one for you.

That's yes.

That's like, why it a s?

It's another way of saying yes, except that it's used when you are over excited about something.

Well, it is, in fact, also used to compliment someone when they look good.

Or if someone has something don't really good, like you can say that.

Oh my God, this pasta.

Yes, it's just amazing.

You are killing it, girl.

Yes, So that's how you use the word Yes, the next one is.

Is that a thing?

It's kind of a question that teenagers asked when they want to confirm if something is actually happening or not, they want to be up to date Well, because they're teenagers.

They're super curious.

You will hear one of them saying that hurts something about Miley getting back with her eggs.

It's not a thing, so probably they're curious.

They just got to know something, and they want to confirm it.

So is that a thing?

That's the way they use it.

Well, here's another interesting one, which is fam fam Jam.

I was so tied up this weekend with my FAM jam.

Now this is another way off saying family teenagers have a life of their own, which is kind of cool, but they're fam refers to They are mom and dad and siblings.

So basically they're family.

You know, the drill is when you can't stay over for the night and you say that Oh, I gotta rush back because I've got dinner plans with my family.

So it's basically a shocked word for the word family.

Yes, family is already a shark word, but that's how teenagers are.

They love to use different words.

Here's the next one for you.

Can I get an Amane or Ayman now in English?

People either pronounce it as a men's or almond.

Now this phrase is used when 18 things that what he said was just awesome.

Yes, they, after all, cannot be subtle.

They want everyone to know that how cool they are.

So, for example, your 16 year old will probably say that David's taking me out for a drive in his dad's new car.

The new fancy car.

Can I get an almond?

Yes.

So that's how they used this.

So what do we have next?

Well, we've got Sorry.

Not sorry.

Now, this is used when you're actually not sorry about anything.

So if your 15 year old is angry and say something really mean to a friend, he might actually say sorry, but not sorry just to show that the person deserved to be spoken in that way.

Now, that's really mean.

And it can be really offending if you use this term with adults.

So teenagers just keep it amongst yourselves.

Okay.

So are you guys getting a hang off?

What?

The teenagers talk?

Well, yes, I have for another interesting one for you, which is killing it now.

This phrase is used by teenagers to express that they are doing something really awesome.

Yes.

So if you are here a boy saying that Oh, my God.

Did you see John?

He was like killing it at the soccer.

Yes.

So probably John is a great player.

And he was at the soccer field and he did fantastic, like he played unbelievably well.

So you are super impressed.

And that's why you can use the word killing it.

I mean, he just killed it.

You were just killing it, man.

That's how the teenagers used this term.

Next one is turn up.

Well, teens love nothing more than to just turn up at any fun event.

Yes, they love having fun.

So as the word suggests, it means that there's something great happening and you are invited to just turn up or top.

That's how.

Also, they use this word.

So they're having a big party at Drones Place on Friday night.

You just gotta turn up on another one for you.

Which is am I right, ladies?

Now it is used when you just dropped a major truth bomb like teenagers don't just like to tell it like that.

I mean, they want all the drama.

They want some action towards it, so they use it in a sentence like I totally had the hottest state tonight.

Yes.

Am I right, ladies?

So, yes.

I mean, they just want to show it all for so that's exactly the reason why they end up using such different words.

So here's the last one from my end, which is turned with actually means to act crazy to have fun, be social, and in a party when you are absolutely under the influence of alcohol.

Yes, it can be also used for someone who is acting really crazy And who's a turn?

Yes.

Now, how do you use it in ascendance, though?

Well, in English show, you can say it like I'm going over to Jackie's tonight.

We're having, like, some beer.

We're gonna eat some cheese and crackers and watch a movie, too.

So it's gonna be super firm, and I got to get turned.

Okay, so which means that you are gonna have a great time with your friends.

You're gonna be under the influence of alcohol, and of course, it's gonna be a blast so turned.

That's the word the teenagers use.

Now I find them really interesting, and I'm sure this has kind of given you an idea about What kind of language do they speak?

Like I said, it is English.

But yes, they do have a different language.

Certain words that we don't end up using but the teenagers do on.

I think it's super cool to learn to know them on, especially when you're learning English.

Then why not learn these words to?

I mean, you will definitely understand some English movies also right, because these words are commonly used in the movies, too.

So hope this lesson was fun and interesting for all you out there.

I'll be back with a new lesson soon to then keep enjoying and keep smiling.
