In 2025, social media, AI, and Gen Z slang significantly reshaped language, with terms like 'rage bait' and 'vibe coding' gaining prominence. Oxford University Press named 'rage bait' its Word of the Year, defining it as content designed to provoke anger for engagement. Other notable terms include 'vibe coding' for AI-assisted programming, 'broligarchy' for male-dominated power structures, and 'dumbphone' for basic mobile devices.
