    #12 Decoding Gen Z slang (advanced vocabulary and pronunciation)

    In this episode, we're diving into the wild world of Gen Z lingo and slang. You know, terms like "No cap", "Sus", "Slay", "Cheugy"… yeah, I know. I have to admit, being a millennial myself, most of these slangs and expressions are so weird to me, but you just can't escape them at the moment. Gen Z lingo can be so confusing to understand, even for native speakers, and some terms are not straightforward at all in their pronunciation and real-world use in conversation. So, I'm gonna break down 30 of the most popular Gen Z slangs that everyone is using, talking about, confused about, or cringing hard about. Grab a cuppa and enjoy! 📧 If you have an episode suggestion, you can email me at britishengpractice@gmail.com 📱 For more British English Practice, head over to @britishenglishpractice on Instagram
