Test yourself on the Gen Z slang of 2025: Can you decode ‘huzz’ and ‘glazing’?

"Gen Z’s slang evolves from the bottom up and is heavily shaped by social media algorithms," said Yaron Litwin, an expert in kids’ online culture and chief marketing officer for Canopy Parental Control App, which is based in the U.S. and Israel. "Big back" is a slang term with more than 57,000 searches used to describe someone with a large upper body or who is overweight, often in a teasing or mocking way. The term also appears in the 2024 song "Nissan Altima," in which rapper Doechii sings, "You delulu, you a loose screw," and has even been added to the Cambridge Dictionary.
