Abstract

 

Youth slang has become a powerful tool of expression among younger generations, especially in the digital age. It influences both online and offline communication, reflecting cultural values, identity, and social belonging. This paper explores how youth slang affects modern communication patterns and examines its linguistic, cultural, and social implications. The study combines literature review and qualitative data from digital media to analyze current slang trends.
