npc

This word, which originated from gaming, is now used to taunt those people who follow trends without thinking. Those who do not have any distinct identity are called NPC.

nonchalant

‘Nonchalant’ means to be carefree, sad and cheerful or calm. Especially in such a situation where excitement should be visible, but the person pretends that it does not matter to him.

6-7

There is no fixed meaning of 6-7. It came from a song and then became an inside joke. Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha find its absurdity most amusing, while the older generation is often left confused.

Zesty

This word is used for people who are excessively expressive or dramatic. Sometimes it is called Zesty, sometimes jokingly, sometimes as a light quip.

Aura Farming

It’s Giving

If you want to describe the effect or feel of something, Gen-Z says ‘giving luxury’. Now this has become the most common expression on social media.
