◐ Dyingn.✎ 3
Rizz
Charisma, specifically the romantic kind, specifically as a skill. Currently in the terminal phase every slang term enters once adults start using it correctly.

● Aliven.✎ 1
Brainrot
Content optimised past the point of meaning, and the mental state of having consumed it. The first internet term that is also a self-diagnosis.

◐ Dyinginterj.✎ 3
Six-Seven
Two numbers said with a hand gesture, meaning nothing. Every classroom on Earth had banned it by October 2025; the dictionary announcement in December was the coroner arriving.

● Aliveadj.
Cooked
Finished, doomed, beyond help. Applies to a person, a country or a group project with equal ease, which is why it stuck.

Skibidi
An intensifier with no fixed meaning, derived from a series about heads in toilets. The purest example yet of a word that means only that you are the sort of person who says it.

Gen Alpha
The generation born from about 2010, which entered the culture in 2023 as the children with the iPads, the slang nobody understood — skibidi, rizz, gyatt — and the Sephora habit. The record's entry for the first generation to be memed before it could vote.

◐ Dyingn.✎ 2
Gyatt
An exclamation at a large backside, from a streamer's pronunciation of 'goddamn', which became one of the first words of Gen Alpha slang and the one their parents were most alarmed to learn. Dying since the parents learned it.

☠ Deadn.✎ 3
Sigma
A lone wolf above the hierarchy, or a kid saying 'what the sigma'. Meant a personality type, then meant nothing, then appeared in a bank's youth-account advert, and that was that.
