.....and whilst still upon the topic of 'new words' - dazzlenation?....i had thought that rizzler/rizla referred to the papers with which to roll your own tobacco and we're back to dartington again - late 80s....with sarah turner's game of 'sniff-the-rizla'....hmmm...not something that gen z would necessarily 'get'....lol....before that time - it used to be 'pass-the-orange' held under your chin, to the next person in the circle.....go figure:

and i'm completely at sea, with 'skibidi':

anyway, i can remember a set-to with mcdonald around the american vs british pronuncation  of schedule....along the lines of i sked whilst you shed....he had found the idea of 'shed' hilarious etc etc......and i can remember finding out that none of the pronunciation books at the prague  british council DTO centre taught that 'upward lift'...and so i then devised a way of doing it in class....in order to explain why it sometimes occurred and at other times 'no'  (if you're sure of the answer to your question - a bit rhetorical - often used to put people down..."have your done something-i-asked-you-to" downward - expecting the answer 'no' etc etc) - we all had a great time...enacting it out - pairwork, short scenes contextualised etc etc....what irritates me now is that rising tone at the end of questions is so widely used...over-used....e.g. by politicans and spokespeople for various organisations etc etc on mass media...you should know the answer to that one, stop pretending that you don't in order to appear likeable....lol...makes those who use it for 'affirmation/confirmation' look rather dim because they often ask questions that they should really know/quite obviously do know the answer to etc etc....a dumbing down effect because 'dumb' is 'clever' - nobody likes a clever clogs etc etc...odd that american english appears to have gone to town with it before british enligsh - although british english is catching up - a copycat number, i suppose.....the algorithmic direction...'dumbing down' in order to 'hook in'....as it goes, eh?
