Parents making sense of 'teenglish'
September 14, 2008 - 0:0
A British charity has launched a website on ""teenglish"" to make parents understand the jargon their children use in normal conversations.
The jargon-buster website, Gotateenager.org.uk , contains almost a hundred definitions for words commonly used by teenagers but until now incomprehensible to their parents.It is one way to make way for better communication between parents and their teenage children, according to British charity Parentline Plus.
They spent months talking to parents and teenagers about the latest slang before compiling the online dictionary of 96 words from bare - meaning many - to wagwaan, or what's going on?
