Every year and really ever week there seems to be a new slang word or term! Now this could be something as simple as a shortened word or a word that you would not expect would be used in that context but it is ever changing! I have a lot of trouble keeping up with all these new terms and I know a lot of others do too.
Here is a list of some older and newer slang words or terms so that you might be more aware when people use them. C/O https://examples.yourdictionary.com/20-examples-of-slang-language.html
