Having pre-adolescents at home is having to hear theirs Language tic And, in the long term, it becomes exasperating. Sometimes I feel as if I don’t understand them anymore, they wind between them and I really feel next to the plate. I may have forgotten, but I don’t think I use so many strange expressions at their age. I am not the only one dropped, of course, according to a prepy study (a language learning site), 92 % of the French say they observe a linguistic gap between generations. 39 % of respondents say that they are certainly due to the growing use of social networks and other digital communication platforms.
I share a Non -exhaustive list. Do not hesitate to extend it.
“Are you becoming brother?”
We no longer present this beautiful expression that designates the close friend, but not the mother!
Uh no, in reality, honey, you don’t tell me brother.
“You’re embarrassing there”
This is to say? I’m embarrassing because I sing at home, I’m embarrassing because you reproach you? I’m embarrassing because I tell you that you are beautiful with this sweater? In short, this sentence annoys me, alternates “Oh embarrassment”. In his book Educate without extending (Solar), the psychologist Alan Kazdin writes: “Teenagers often do not accept praise full of payment, which they perceive as” annoying “. (…) Therefore, you will surely realize that your teenager perceives your approval as embarrassing or annoying, especially if it takes on the form of a public reminder that is still a child under your control. »» »
Common expressions with my young colleagues, if, if
“No, but it’s a dingurie!” »» »
Shock of Generations, My Sons and my 25 -year -old colleagues say it in a cycle. And there, I have to tell you that I feel very old.
“You are too embittered there”
So there I believe, who did not understand the meaning of the embittered word. I am tired of buying birthday gifts for all your friends who were all born in June. But no, this does not make me a bitter person.
“I Balek It” / “Poucave”
What a deal in the French language! Fortunately, they only say it with each other. But they don’t interfere to launch it in their brothers for 3 years.
“It’s rinsed”
So, I’m amazed there. A simple word to say that it is rotten. So many things are rinsed to listen to them.
“Di Chew”
Another thing in common with my colleagues. Example: “Is this series?” Answer: “Uhew!” »» »
Finally you save you from now on, overwhelmed “whatever”, “apanyan”, “cheh” …
At over 55 years, are we really collecting it?
Still according to the same study, There is a real gap between generations since no over 55 years survey knew only one of the words in this list!
