Over 600 words, phrases and abbreviations to keep your culture game on point. Do you know your 'lit AF' from your 'fire'? How about your 'bae' or 'doe'. Or 'FOMO' from 'JOMO'? Do you really still think that literally only means 'literally'? Does Internet jargon generally make you break out into a panicky sweat? Ever wondered WTF people mean sometimes? This very modern dictionary is a handy guide to the ever-evolving landscape of modern communication, with over 600 new-fangled words, phrases, acronyms, abbreviations, initialisms and portmanteaus. Some are really ugly like 'levelution' a portmanteau of 'level' and 'evolution' - the process of increasing in popularity. Ummmmm. This up to date second edition has been expanded from the original 2017 publication, and is your passport to Twitter or X, Instagram and more, and will be a game changer. Never again feel really old and befuddled but understand the English language of the 21st century. Obvi. Arranged A-Z with three or four big nicely designed explanations per page. 176pp.
