Did you see that girl in the instagram photo she has a Chanel bag
and the Balenciagas the ones that look like socks, she’s so
‘BOUGEE.’
Did you see that girl ‘THROWING SHADE’ at her friend. That’s
so un cool.
Drip- when your bling is iced out but that stuff melting

from all your hot bars, you got the drip. Just another
word for immense swag.
How did your expectations live up to the results? I expected the teenagers to talk with abbreviation and
initialism words like ‘OMG’ that is so ‘LOL.’ Moreover
I knew most words would not make sense to me until
they explained how they use them in context.
Did you engage in similar language creation when you were My word choices included; girly, besty, my ride, that’s
that age? dope.
Do you see similarities between your development and the I found many similarities between your development and
the development of the teens whom I observed.
development of the teens whom you observed?
They are dressed alike and wearing the same
brands. They have conversations about their clothes and
other teens in school. They try to act like they are mature
and participate in discussing issues on the news. I did all
the same things growing up. It’s funny my sister talks to me
in private and tells me don’t say this in front of this friend
it’s embarrassing, just like I used to tell my mom when my
friends came over to our home.
Theoretical principles of Morphology:
What principles of morphology/semantics did you observe? Teenagers use morphemes like ‘re’ and ‘ed’ to make the
new vocabulary.
Include citations/references when citing outside sources.
What conclusions can you draw about how language changes I conclude that as the speech of different age
real-time? groups is compared at different moments in time
we detect historical changes in a community.
Reference
Teenagers want change therefore real-time
language change usually occurs in every new

ndrealtimestudiesoflanguagechange media, change is happening more rapidly and
across continents of the world all at once. I find
my teenage sister saying the word ‘trending’ alot.
Every week a new word is trending (means it’s
what everyone is saying right now) . The Urban
dictionary is being built yet again by a new
generation of teenagers.
Does this learning change the way that I will approach students
from a linguistic perspective?
Yes
I plan on using charts and exercises to clearly implement morphological principles
into my classroom. I will start with teaching them basic morphemes like
The word renew has two morphemes ‘Re’ (means ‘again’) ‘new’ (means ‘recently
made’). The students will understand that words that start with ‘re’ generally mean
repeating something again. When the last two letters of a word ends in ‘ed’ this
generally means something that is past tense, therefore the students will
automatically know that although they may be unfamiliar with the word itself they
know it’s a big chance that it’s something past tense because it ended with ‘ed.’
