Youth language is constantly changing, creating the languages of the future. As a passionate polyglot, I look at how young people in London, Paris, Berlin and Stockholm are creating new words, grammar and pronunciation which reflect life in their vibrant multicultural cities. Teen slang comes from a wide variety of different languages, and in London the accent has changed completely in the course of one generation.
I also explore how mediaeval youth language affected the history of English and how people have complained about thew youth of the day ruining the language for thousands of years.
