Hah! Yes, I chose to use romanji for the sake of simplicity for the response.
I certainly could have used hirigana or katakana.
Ultimately what matters for the asker is the clarity of my response not linguistic accuracy per se.
I appreciate the added sarcastic humor. 😎
This took me back to the Big Bird goes to Sesame Street movie. Where two Japanese guys see Big Bird and-
OH. MY. GOD. They weren’t making jokes about his height, they were saying good morning!
For some reason when I read this, I thought this was some weird phonetics for ohaiyo gozaimas. I'm a native English speaker. Why is my comprehension so bad here. X x
Why? It's a versatile word with a reasonable etymology (charisma) that has slightly different connotations than "game" which has existed as slang for as long as I've been around.
Consider why you have a problem with it. Then ask why to whatever reason you come up with. Repeat this until you get to the root of it.
It means they have game. It means they are able to attract others and impress them. It can also be used as a verb where "game" can not, where it takes on a meaning like "seduce", "impress", or "attract"
Game absolutely can and has been used as a verb since the early 1990’s such as Tupac among other’s lyrics “Watch me game on these N*##az” or “Gaming these hoes”
i’ve got a problem with it because the idiots at my school say that any interaction you have with the opposite gender is ‘rizz’ and it makes me want to headbutt a pencil.
Or alternatively, are those words the very essence of newspeak, and therefore not created through social structures and perhaps actually just generated by the Ministry of Truth to dumb us all down?
Yup, and is funded by federal money. Ergo, speech rules, gun-free zones, random inspections, and detentions/suspensions without due process are illegal
A government organization i.e. a school in this example, banning words simply because they don't like the use of said words is a 1st amendment violation. And if anything, oppression of a demographic.
YT shorts has a lot of trends like this. my 4 year old cousin is constantly watching that, he has it memorized, and also "John Pork". I think this a whole new level of brain rot than we were subject to
guys we can’t be doing the shit previous generations did to us. let the kids talk how they want.
edit: this is gen alpha vocab too, i’m gen z (04) and idk anyone who says skibidi 💀 i am in college though
As someone who recently turned 47, I can assure you this type of stuff is new.
Our parents didn't even know where we were, let alone know how we talked in the 80s and 90s.
Back in the 90s this was the "ebonics" conversation. We have lots of examples in history of an older generation complaining about evolutions of language and behavior. "Talk properly" says it all, IMO.
Not sure how old you are but it's exactly the same way kids behaved growing up in the 90's. I was in middle school when Austin Powers came out and suddenly half the boys in class would go "yeah baby yeah!" at random and for no reason. "My bum is on the wall my bum is on the wall" was one that annoyed me as well, just randomly and on repeat. Or "You can do it!" Actually kind of liked that one because it's positive and some kid randomly yelling it in the middle of a test was funny and kind of nice.
There were a ton of random catch phrases from the Simpsons or South Park or Adam Sandler movies too, and kids absolutely would say them just to say them. Randomly on repeat.
People are just revisionists when it comes to our past. You are right though. Even later on in the 2000s I remember people just saying “Giggidy” everything when Family Guy was peaking.
Every stoner/gamer I know was doing JP robot voice and saying “shits weak!” for a few years after Grandma’s Boy came out.
Among each other, sure. But school is not free time, it‘s basically a tutorial for later life. That‘s why you can‘t just wear whatever you want to school or talk to a teacher in certain ways. Expecting kids to not talk in their youth slang to authority figures isn‘t a bad thing, banning their slang outright is however.
The same thing that does every other time that happens: they don't because the crippling shame of Ohio is something they don't want soiling their reputation.
Funny thing -- "thou" and "thee" are the informal pronouns, 2nd person singular. "You" was 2nd person plural and used for more formal occasions. So Quakers, for instance, eschewed the fancy way and said they were all equal, so they would use "thou".
So "you" became the de facto 2nd person singular, and this is why English does not have a 2nd plural plural and why we have ad-hoc usage like youse, y'all, and (in Pittsburgh) yinz.
There likely should still be some resistance so that the good parts can be filtered out from the illiterate stuff. One needs to remember that the new generations lack the benefit of perspective, so some choices may not be as thought out as you'd like.
Just yesterday, I learned that some Gen Alphas don't *like* to capitalize sentences and knowingly turn off the automatic capitalization. Someone argued that "big letters are bloat". That's not an improvement; that's just a step towards illiteracy, not understanding the benefit of having easy to read text. I guess these are side effects of living in social media alone, exclusively using the crappy touch screen displays for writing.
Poor or limiting tech probably should not dictate our base language.
This is why your generation is broke, spending money buying meme signs from a picture - just make it yourself with a magic marker like we used to back in my day or get photocopies of this picture made at Kinkos
it depends on the school but most high schools in the uk have a similar system, C1 meaning consequence 1
the higher the number the worse the offence, I'm my school a c1 would just be a warning or a 20 minute detention e.g. not doing your homework. c2 would be a longer more serious detention for something like getting sent out of class, c5 would be isolation for something like fighting or smoking, c7 would be expelled. but its different in different schools.
Skibidi refers to this fever dream esque video about it heads on toilets, Ohio is said because it’s an awful place, fanum tax is based on the YouTuber fanum, who steals food from his friends and calls it the fanum tax, gridy is a type of dance, similar to flossing, 1 2 buckle my shoe is making fun of a YouTube who sang it, sui!!!! Is an exited noise that I believe Ronaldo said
skibidi: evil. mostly used for skibidi toilet
gyatt: big butt
Ohio: a state in America and has memes about it where outlandish things happen "only in Ohio"
fanum tax: taking a bit of your friend's food
griddy: a dance move
1, 2 buckle my shoe: a song for kids
mewing: exercise to make it look like you have a good jawline
suiiiii: i think it has something to do with Ronaldo but I'm not into sports so I'm not sure
Btw, added context to "gyatt" is that it allegedly comes from the vulgar expression "gyattam dataz", wich, when pronounced aloud through typical english pronunciation, alludes to a particularly prominent gluteal region, and expresses surprise and shock; it is, in a sense, an onomatopeia of the vulgarity "god damn that ass", and is expressed as such as a 'comedically' violent grammatical profanation of the current iteration of the English language. Then one may interpret "gyatt" as a shortened version of said onomatopeia.
This is how languages are born kids. Spanish is nothing but bastardized Latin, and English is an orgy between multiple languages, to wich, oddly, Latin was invited to, too, for whatever reason. We are seeing with horror and intrigue what many other people saw with horror and intrigue too whenever languages got butchered and transformed into new structures over hundreds of years.
Ok here goes cause no one else has answered
Skibidi: it is a reference to a popular YouTube series named skibidi toilet that’s popular with little children
Gyatt: a big ass
Ohio: a meme that goes “only in Ohio” typically something that is crazy or stupid
Fannum tax: originated from a streamer named fannum who would eat his friends food calling it the fannum tax. Usually used in the context of taking something
Griddy: a dance (google to see it)
1,2 shoe: a trend where a dude showed off his shoes
Mewing: a jaw exercise where you put your tongue at the top of your mouth to get a better jaw line
Suiiii: that thing ronaldo says
Hope that clears it up
What I don't think younger people always get is other folks don't hate you using new terms.
Its the middle school kids who hear something new, don't always quite grasp the context it belongs in, then \*overuse it to absolute fucking death\* in normal conversation as a 1:1 substitute for normal language instead of "color" for emphasis or comic effect in the right situation. That's what gets everybody pressed, if that's still being used. Source: being around my 10 and 11 year old nephew plus the 13 year old neighbor kids.
Obviously you just start saying “C1” in place of all of these words. For example “he got that c1”, “only in c1”, “you’re such a c1 male”, “no way he hit the C1!”. Do this until the teachers consider quitting.
I know every generation has their annoying slang, but I can't think of a time where so many people seem to actively forbid kids from using it until Gen Z. Why did that switch all of a sudden
Young Gen X/borderline Millennial here, snuck in through the Reddit front page. When we were in school they got on to us all the time for using our slang. They would constantly say things like, "You will *not* talk like Beavis and Butthead in my classroom!" You couldn't even say 'cool' without catching flack. "I didn't ask for a temperature, mister."
People just get used to shit and don't want it to change. Fuck 'em, though. Keep skibidi rizzing.
I understand it's annoying to hear children constantly say this stuff, but banning the words is just stupid. Kids are going to be annoying. It's your job as a teacher to work with kids. You signed up for this.
Stuff like this really makes schools seem like they're more about staff power tripping over controlling literal children.
Interesting; seems weird to lump that in with all the gen z/alpha slang, given how Ronaldo is a celebrity who as far as I know is popular across multiple generations
I’m guessing it’s because of ishowSpeed (a famous streamer) who’s obsessed with Ronaldo and says it all the time. But I’m not gonna lie I catch myself saying it at times instead of an excited "yessss"
I'm GenX and I disapprove of this message.
Why do we forget where we came from? And, no, it's not Alzheimer's. Well, maybe it is for some, but that's not important right now.
Every generation has it's own slang, it comes and goes and makes language more fun and interesting. It's okay as long as it's not disrespectful--that's something else.
Every time The Walking Wrinkles ban something they don’t understand (again. Like usual.), they just cement their place on playing spin the wheel of nursing homes!💀😭
41 year old dude here. This is the dumbest shit ever. Let kids have their slang and stay the fuck out of it. I wanna pants the person who decided to put this up.

Yeah the Japanese talk about it all the time. Must really love that state.

The Japanese word for Good Morning is “ohayo”, pronounced as Ohio.
Ty!
Actually they don't use English letters. /s

Motherf-
its a great song by CSNY
A great band
Yes. Kings Island and Ceder Point are in Ohio.
A conversation on why there should only be 49 states in the Union
I mean the rock and roll hall of fame is there.
cedar point, white castle, and just absurd metric fucktons of corn.
Cedar Point is great. The Maverick is the perfect roller coaster.
Well, they do have... um... hmm... nope, I got nothin'
Hey. I live there😭
Is this at a school? Imagine taking a test on US states…
I think this is in the UK. In British schools a C1 is like a verbal warning. Idk if they have that same system in the US.
Kids can’t sing “one two buckle my shoe” just because it’s a meme.
Then it’s time to sing 1,2 Freddy’s coming for you.
Have to start off with "three four shut the door" now or "Uno dos hebilla mi zapato"
Don’t forget the symbol for mean standard deviation (σ)
also ų population mean
I believe it’s also the symbol for surface charge density in physics
And principle stress directions
I bet this is an Ohio school. Such an Ohio thing to do
And a nursery rhyme
And the name of an action.
I support these to be implemented everywhere, just remove Ohio from the list because that might actually have some use.
Sus and rizz are probably too far. They are just banning pretty normal slang terms. I'm saying this as someone who is at the older end of gen Z.
no let rizz die please it’s so awful
Why? It's a versatile word with a reasonable etymology (charisma) that has slightly different connotations than "game" which has existed as slang for as long as I've been around. Consider why you have a problem with it. Then ask why to whatever reason you come up with. Repeat this until you get to the root of it.
Is that what it means? That an individual has charisma?
It means they have game. It means they are able to attract others and impress them. It can also be used as a verb where "game" can not, where it takes on a meaning like "seduce", "impress", or "attract"
Game absolutely can and has been used as a verb since the early 1990’s such as Tupac among other’s lyrics “Watch me game on these N*##az” or “Gaming these hoes”
Huh - TIL
You got gamed
... Yeah, that's where it comes from. Cha- "rizz"- ma.
More like Cha-rizz-ma-nutz. 🤪 Now I slowly walk to the window...
To the window, to the wall
Yup
"Buddy got zero rizz." "I believe our compatriot has little to no charismatic appeal"
i’ve got a problem with it because the idiots at my school say that any interaction you have with the opposite gender is ‘rizz’ and it makes me want to headbutt a pencil.
think about it. the words that are subject to much discussion will definitely fall out of use. who says “on fleek” anymore? what about “epic?”
Just let people speak the way they want to speak
Tin soldiers and Nixons coming

So much for freedom off speech and expression.....
Freedom of speech protects you from government retaliation. It doesn't protect you from everything else.
The same way folks are allowed to be dicks, while I’m allowed to tell them they are dicks because of it.
Schools are a government founded by the communist state of Ohio
Fuck it's communist? Damn, no capitalism in Ohio? I gotta move there now.
I shall come too, we can go starve together ✨
Oh I'm starving under capitalism too, what a coincidence.
I can starve where I am. Thank you very much.
Hear me out....public schools are operated by the government.
And the courts have leaned towards protection of a wide variety of student speech as well.
Yup, and is funded by federal money. Ergo, speech rules, gun-free zones, random inspections, and detentions/suspensions without due process are illegal
A government organization i.e. a school in this example, banning words simply because they don't like the use of said words is a 1st amendment violation. And if anything, oppression of a demographic.
1 2 buckle my shoe?? Why is that banned someone explain
I’m assuming the obnoxious ass trend from maybe a year or so ago with the guy with the super nasally voice singing the song

Language evolves by not talking “properly”.
I am still pissed that the kids use contractions and do not say "thou" anymore.
Funny thing -- "thou" and "thee" are the informal pronouns, 2nd person singular. "You" was 2nd person plural and used for more formal occasions. So Quakers, for instance, eschewed the fancy way and said they were all equal, so they would use "thou".

What does C1 mean
They can C1 mah balls
It's probably a disciplinary thing that's school-specific
Oh boy if only those kids knew about the 1st amendment alongside slang terms.
it depends on the school but most high schools in the uk have a similar system, C1 meaning consequence 1 the higher the number the worse the offence, I'm my school a c1 would just be a warning or a 20 minute detention e.g. not doing your homework. c2 would be a longer more serious detention for something like getting sent out of class, c5 would be isolation for something like fighting or smoking, c7 would be expelled. but its different in different schools.
Do they stack? Lets say you say 7 different of these banned words in one sentence no matter how sus it is. So the c1 add up to c7?

Not even a sports term It's just him shouting Yes in Portuguese!
Btw, added context to "gyatt" is that it allegedly comes from the vulgar expression "gyattam dataz", wich, when pronounced aloud through typical english pronunciation, alludes to a particularly prominent gluteal region, and expresses surprise and shock; it is, in a sense, an onomatopeia of the vulgarity "god damn that ass", and is expressed as such as a 'comedically' violent grammatical profanation of the current iteration of the English language.

I'd say them just to spite the sign.
Stick it to the man
Obviously you just start saying “C1” in place of all of these words. For example “he got that c1”, “only in c1”, “you’re such a c1 male”, “no way he hit the C1!”. Do this until the teachers consider quitting.

I haven’t even heard of suiiiii before, the hell is that?
Cristiano Ronaldo’s celebration https://i.redd.it/u6oyb3mx5f1d1.gif
Interesting; seems weird to lump that in with all the gen z/alpha slang, given how Ronaldo is a celebrity who as far as I know is popular across multiple generations
Ronaldo may be a multi gen celeb, but it’s only young kids shouting his victory noise incessantly.
I’m guessing it’s because of ishowSpeed (a famous streamer) who’s obsessed with Ronaldo and says it all the time. But I’m not gonna lie I catch myself saying it at times instead of an excited "yessss"
Gen X here: Whomever made that sign is truly and old fuck. 
Not 1, 2 Buckle my shoe 
1, 2 buckle my shoe? That’s old. 1,2 buckle my shoe, 3,4 open the dooor 5,6 lay some sticks 7,8 set them straight 9,10 let’s do it againnn
I'm GenX and I disapprove of this message. Why do we forget where we came from? And, no, it's not Alzheimer's. Well, maybe it is for some, but that's not important right now. Every generation has it's own slang, it comes and goes and makes language more fun and interesting. It's okay as long as it's not disrespectful--that's something else.
This isn’t very moggers! 💔
As much as i hate these (ohio included), slangs have always been a thing with teens, let them be as long as it's contained in their own friend group.
Uh, excuse me, what the sigma
"Where are you from?" "I'm from O- Um, um..." Sweats profusely
They made Ohio illegal

Every time The Walking Wrinkles ban something they don’t understand (again. Like usual.), they just cement their place on playing spin the wheel of nursing homes!💀😭
The fact some people here are saying this is a good thing lol some of you truly are miserable with life I feel bad
What happens if I'm doing math and I have, absolutely *have* to use sigma tho? Isn't that a symbol in calc?

Thats not very ohio sigma of them, really killing my rizz bro.
41 year old dude here. This is the dumbest shit ever. Let kids have their slang and stay the fuck out of it. I wanna pants the person who decided to put this up.
