I was recently audience to a conversation between a gen-Xer/millennial and an 11-year-old wherein the former asked about the modern equivalent of "cool". The 11yo didn't have an answer.
I'm an English teacher and work with kids 11 , and I realise I haven't noticed anything myself. The only things I can think of are already outdated slang and/or never caught on in the UK (eg, "lit", "on fleek"). I keep forgetting to pay attention, but I think kids these days really don't have a go-to adjective and probably express enthusiasm/acceptance in a more long-form way.
Any insights?
