Gen Zs never watch TV, are stressed about Snapchat, and are concerned that technology has ruined their mental health — here's what it's REALLY like to be a teen in 2018

Teens told Business Insider that these are their most-used slang words.

Here's what they mean.

Lit: When something is very exciting or energetic — like a "lit" party.

Bet: "Bet" is usually a one-word agreement — sort of like "I bet you do." You can replace "Ok" with "bet."

Shook: Shocked or surprised. Can't believe what you're seeing.

Yeet: Yeet was a dance that went viral on Vine in 2014. Now it can be used as an expression of excitement or a verb to describe someone throwing something over a long distance.

Key: The more succinct sibling of "major key," key indicates something important or vital to one's success.

Slay: Succeeded in something amazing.
