How Slang of The Previous Generation Has Changed From Then To Now
Title: How Slang of The Previous Generation Has Changed From Then To Now
Introduction:
This is an interview of a person who is the age of the previous generation, this generation is now 30-50 years old. The evidence that has been collected reflects that slang has changed through the generations but some slang will be consistent through the generations.
Procedure:
A teacher was asked if he could be interviewed on video. This video was analyzed and information was gathered from the responses to the questions.
Findings:
A lot of people learn slang at school and it is used most at school. The slang that is learnt at this time sticks with them because they are at the peak of their learning abilities. Once you are an adult, slang will stick with you and you will keep using slang if you are in an environment with young people. Different schools have a differents use of slang. There are slang words that are unique to South Africa such as “lekker.”
Conclusions:
Slang has changed through the generations and that there is slang that will ignore the test of time.
