It would be tempting to hear the latest words to hit the Cambridge Dictionary and simply roll your eyes with disdain. “Skibidi”, “delulu”, “tradwife”, “broligarchy” – what have these to do with anyone over the age of 30, save being more evidence that our reign of cultural relevance is over?
I had to fight the desire to do this myself, a millennial now past the point of knowing what’s what, let alone what’s hot. “Skibidi?”, I thought despondently; I didn’t even recognise the three syllables already so established as to have been accepted into the latest compilation of the English language.
