Q1: What do you think slang says about the evolution of language? #CultureTrav

A1: Evolution of slang shows what is popularly received by people - if it wasn't liked, it wouldn't gain so much traction. #CultureTRav

A1: Words change and evolve as society and cultures intertwine. So, it's good thing. #CultureTrav

A1: Slang says that language is always evolving and new words gain traction because people like them/use them more, and they catch on. Does everyone like slang? Doubtful, but it's popular! #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A1: It shows that despite all the rules we've imposed on language (which, as someone with an English degree I am very observant of), there really are no rules when it comes to how people speak. #CultureTrav

replying to @travelcricket8 @travelcricket8 A1: always changing. I like using old stuff like “that’s the ticket” or “bees knees” but in limited doses #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A1: I love slang terminology. I think it reflects social and political trends. People rag on youngsters and their abbreviations / slang, but language is constantly evolving, so I see no issue with it. I choose full words and punctuation though ;-) #CultureTrav

A1 Hey #CultureTrav I'm flying from #Tampa to #Miami coming back from a cruise to #Havana #Cuba. I love playing w/words. With that said, slang is super powerful. It gives a different flavor to any phrase. Just look at how you intro this chat: LIT & DOPE. I'm hoping it is WICKED!

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O #culturetrav A1. To me, slang can be both a fun & annoying evolution of language. There's some slang I enjoy, others make me cringe (or feel old). I like regional/activity slang. I'm an active snowmobiler. With all my buddies we just call em sleds. 'Let's go sledding this wknd'

A1. I think slang is a very natural evolution of language. Slang has paved the way for words we use now in ordinary discourse. Some may sneer at them at first but in years to come they may be the norm. #CultureTrav
