I text you and you don't text me back [Applause] you're El so today we have a special guest L that's [Music] where is located I'm actually from Orlando where where dis is why are you consistently saying I don't know 23 years old you born in 2000 oh gosh [Music] useful let's get this started Okay so so the first word is uh down or so down basically so the sentence that I'll use to describe it is hey would you be down to go get a drink with me ah now in English down uh obviously is the direction but in like gen Z slang and kind of it's more popular not just gen z um but it's a pretty young thing to say uh would be like are you okay with are you do you want to uh are you down to sure so when you're inviting someone so do you want to Jo down Direction but it's also maybe not as much slang anymore honestly I think people use it more yeah yeah you down to go get a drink that this how about uh like I'm so down like I'm totally down let's go oh yeah I'm down yeah I'm down m how did this start it though how did it I'm wondering why they started using it though is it more like hey come down and let's go somewhere like you know like come down maybe I actually don't know I don't know where it comes from I'm so happy you know before I would say oh I don't know why this happens or why this is this and then I feel like I was like guilty of not knowing anything but since know saying that he doesn't know why yeah what kind I what can I what kind I ghosting is the next thing or being ghosted it's a verb and it happens to all of us I think even maybe like the Dead uh it just basically means means like you're interested in somebody or looking to get a response from someone and then they ghost you I.E they stop texting you stop replying I ghost you but I don't yeah I I text you and you don't text me back you're ghosting me so it's becoming more and more prevalent because lots of people aren't texting people back in the US particularly in dating but you can also use it in a casual business sense as well like uh is a client responding no he's ghosting us what's the term privating in the middle prevalent prevalent go go prevalent means and this isn't slang but prevalent is like very very popular like um lots of lots of people do it lots of people do it maybe not popular but it happens a lot prevalent happens a lot hi so more popular why wouldn't even say popular popular means that it's kind of it has a more positive context and so like if a word is more popular it means it's trending but it's not necessarily trending it's just kind of being used more it's being used more yeah yeah yeah less subjective just [Music] Bieber PR is s now this term has been all over and it's kind of getting a little bit old but I think it's still applicable right it still has meaning simp is basically when somebody is doing too much for somebody else romantically right romantically so like if I really liked anian and I would take off my work and spend a lot of money on her then I would be a s I would be sing for anjian then well maybe anian doesn't like me back doesn't matter right hi I learned today I learned don't have it's not a good word so simp is B I'm simping For You simp and noun and and adjective it's one of those kind of like English words that has a very uh it's it's uh very applicable right you can use it in a lot of different context right I am a s I am sing so as a verb and then he was simpish that is a simpish thing to do would be an adjective hi like you a s okay oh yeah hi hi hi them them maybe make somebody a little frustrated the show have the best context you're being a s don't don't be a Sim don't be a s hi hi hi would be bet okay so basically a bet or big BET right uh so not the usual bet not the usual bet not not not giving money

very very interested like super excited to go and be like big bet let's do this bigi hi wait wait wait so I would ask you I saying hey Alie do you want to drink out bet oh casual very casual very
