We've always known they speak a different language... now parents can finally understand their kids with a new guide to "Teenglish".
Words such as "butters" (ugly), "crunk" (crazy-drunk) and "phat" (cool) need be gibberish no longer for mums and dads thanks to a teenspeak jargon-buster.
Nikola Mann, who helped set up www.gotateenager.org.uk with Parentline Plus, said: "It makes you realise how out of touch you are when you read some of these words teenagers are using.
Butters Ugly. eg: That girl is so butters..
Crunk Crazy, drunk. eg: Let's get crunk tonight..
Feds Police. eg: The feds are coming..
Flossing Showing off or teasing with material possessions. eg: Look at him over there flossing..
Hench To be strong. eg: Check me out, I am proper hench...
Nang Brilliant. eg: That music is nang..
Phat Cool, great. eg: That new song is phat..
Rents Parents. eg: He's going on holiday with his rents..
