You know, vocabulary words come in and go
out of use. If you're speaking English like
2
13690

00:21
your textbook that was published in 1950,
you probably don't sounds like a native speaker.

and you'll see it right there.
Okay! So, let's get to the top five slang
7
50780
5410
00:56
words for 2016.
Number One is "extra". Keep in mind, you probably
8
56190
8350
01:04
already know the word "extra", but this is
a new use of the word as slang. That's what
9
64540
5840
01:10
slang is, right? It's taking a word that we
already have and using it another way. So
10
70380
5910
01:16
"extra" means "trying too hard, or being over
the top". Okay? "Oh, that's extra! That's
11
76290
8640
01:24
too much!" It's negative. It's not a good
thing.
12
84930
4850
01:29
Number Two is "OTP". This is an abbreviation
that stands for "one true pairing", a couple
13
89780
9750
01:39
that you are emotionally invested in. Forever,
Beyoncé and Jay-Z are my OTP. Who is your
14
99530
9320
01:48
OTP? You can tell me in the comments.
Next: "Netflix and chill". This phrase has
15
108850
6940
01:55
been in use for a little while. What it means
is -- and I think it'll continue to be in
16
115790
6560
02:02
use throughout 2016 -- what it means is inviting
someone over to your home for a romantic encounter,
17
122350
8230
02:10
but pretending you will just watch streaming
movies and hang out.
18
130580
6540
02:17
Next is number Four: "snatched". It's used
to describe something that looks really good.
19
137120
8350
02:25
It's the new "on fleek" and "on fleek" is
the new "on point" and "on point" is the new
20
145470
6630
02:32
"cool". So, you just learned a lot of new
slang words there.
21
152100
4719
02:36
Number Five... finally, our last one -- is
"hunty". "Hunty" means your best friend, someone
22
156819
7961
02:44
you always hang out with. You have a group
of "hunties".
