When kids say things, they often use slang, playful language, or expressions influenced by their social interactions, media, and internet culture. For young kids (ages 2-5), their language typically revolves around expressing basic needs and emotions, using simple words like "potty" for the toilet or "no-no" to indicate something is not allowed. As kids grow (ages 6-10), they enjoy playful language, jokes, and wordplay with phrases like "cool beans" (something exciting) or "easy peasy lemon squeezy" (something very easy). For teenagers (ages 11-18), slang is heavily influenced by online culture, with terms such as "bet" meaning "okay" or "challenge accepted," "sus" meaning "suspicious," "drip" referring to cool style, and "no cap" meaning "no lie" or truthfulness. This slang helps them connect socially, express humor, and sometimes keep conversations coded among peers. Parents learning these terms can better understand and engage with their kids' communication style.
If there is a specific phrase or word kids say that needs interpretation, providing that exact phrase would allow for a more precise explanation.
