Watching the news on TV last night, kids were interviewed outside Arsenal about Thierry Henri leaving, Me and Grimsdale were wanting subtitles.
Is father correct about loss of dialect I wonder? Never under estimate the creativity of language, it will always develop

I find jargon in the street fascinating, and don’t mind not knowing what it means because its their own personal world, intent on keeping out non-peers.
Jargon in the business world I find a bore though, probably as I am so not interested in working in their world.
Really enjoyed your post. Lots to ponder. Linda

The English language develops as time passes. Much of what The Bard wrote was considered slang.
What we have at present is a loss of dialect. From Newcastle to Cornwell kids are all starting to speak in the same manner.

Broccoli is slang for marijuana. Hence its dope or cool.

Old man to the rescue.
