(trendy Words in German) Resilienz, Cringe, Babo, woke, Gendern...

Resilienz (Resilience): This word has gained traction as discussions
about mental health, coping with challenges, and sustainability have
become more prominent. While not necessarily trendy, it's definitely a
relevant and increasingly used term.

Current Trendy Words in German (These can change quickly):

Cringe: Borrowed from English, used to describe something embarrassing
or awkward.

Babo: Short for "Boss Babe," a term for a confident and independent woman.

woke: Similar to English, refers to being aware of and actively
addressing social and racial injustices.

Gendern (gendering): The act of using gender-neutral language.

nachhaltig (sustainable): Reflects a growing concern for environmental
responsibility.

gehyped (hyped): Similar to English, describes something that is being
talked about with a lot of excitement.

canceln (to cancel): Following the English usage, refers to publicly
rejecting or boycotting someone or something.

Not at all, a "Babo" is a male, typically some sort of gang leader.
Apparently imported from the Zaza language via Bosnian and used mostly
in turkish or ex-yugoslavian youth subcultures. The rapper "Haftbefehl"
("arrest warrant") had a song "Chabos wissen wer der Babo ist" ("the
boys know who's boss") about 10 years ago.

The meaning of "babo" depends on the language:

Italian: In Italian, "babbo" means "dad" or "daddy" in a casual or
informal setting. It's a common term used by children to address their
fathers.

Korean: In Korean, "babo" (바보) is a derogatory term meaning
"fool," "moron," or "idiot." It's a rude and offensive word, so avoid
using it unless you understand the context completely.

German (historical): In German, "Babo" was a youth slang term
meaning "the boss" or "the ringleader" in the early 2010s. It originated
from Turkish and wasn't widely used by older generations.

Macedonian (regional): In some Muslim communities of Macedonia,
"babo" can be the vocative singular form of words meaning "grandmother"
or "father".
