Gift Your Parents With This Helpful Dictionary Of 2016 Lingo

Most of us aren’t hip to sharing our lingo with family members, but no worries, Nylon has presented a helpful dictionary that explains the many terms we’ve created over the past few years.

Released last week, NYLON’s Dictionary of Modern-Day English presents modern terms that even you might have missed in between the latest viral video or meme. There are the go-to words like “clap back” and “FOH” to address the negative things in life and terms like “facts” (thanks Jay Z) and “gotta hear both sides” (thanks Desus,) that are thrown into casual convos.

Check out some more examples from the dictionary below and be sure to cop it here.
