About this Quiz

Generation Z, or Gen Z for short, is the demographic cohort succeeding Millennials. Born between the mid-to-late 1990s and the early 2010s, they are the first generation to have been raised in the era of smartphones and social media. This digital upbringing has led to the creation of a unique language, filled with slang terms that are often confusing to those outside of the generation. These terms, while seemingly random, often have fascinating origins and historical contexts. For example, the term 'lit' originated from Hip Hop culture, while 'clout' is used to refer to influence or power. 'On fleek' came from a Vine video, and 'stan' is an obsessive fan, a term that originated from a song by Eminem. Other terms like 'savage', 'low key', 'high key', 'GOAT', 'FOMO', 'bae', 'salty', 'tea', 'shade', 'ghosting', 'flex', 'hype', 'woke', 'mood', and 'thirsty' all have unique meanings and origins. This quiz will test your knowledge on these terms and their historical context.
