LANGUAGE needs to constantly evolve, otherwise we would all still be talking like Shakespeare, so I’m always fascinated when new words and phrases come into being.

My daughter told me the other day the movie she'd recently seen was ‘mid’, by which she meant average, while a mate of mine referred to ‘brain rot’ when talking about her use of social media.

I even found myself, if not exactly down with the kids then surely only a couple of floors above them, after using the term ‘giving designer vibes’ when referring to a pair of M&S jeans.

And yes, since you ask, I did buy them.
