## What is Slangback?

Ever hear a word and realize you have absolutely no idea what it means?

Slangback is a slang dictionary with a time machine and a little bit of attitude.

Search for slang you’ve heard, or start with a plain-English meaning and find the slang that matches it. Browse by decade, stumble across something ridiculous, or hit Hit me and let Slangback choose for you.

GO BACK IN TIME

Pick a familiar meaning and send it through the Time Machine. See how different generations expressed the same idea, from the 1950s through the 2020s.

Language doesn’t fit neatly on a timeline. That’s kind of the point.

MORE THAN A DEFINITION

Slang makes more sense when you know how it’s used. Entries can include:

• Plain-English meanings and definitions
• Example sentences
• Decades associated with the expression
• Usage and cultural context
• Related slang
• Research sources

CAN I SAY THAT?

You can ask.

Slangback may have opinions.

BUILT FOR GENERATIONAL CONFUSION

Maybe your kid just said something incomprehensible. Maybe you’re trying to remember what everyone said in the ’90s. Maybe you genuinely believe you can pull off saying “no cap.”

Slangback can help with two of those.

No account. No ads. No tracking. No internet connection required for the dictionary or Time Machine.

Every generation had a word for it.
