A survey by Preply found that 61 percent of Americans oppose adding internet slang like "6-7" and "skibidi" to dictionaries, with the youngest and oldest respondents most opposed. While dictionary editors argue they simply record how language is actually used rather than gatekeeping it, the author suggests people want dictionaries to serve a prescriptive function for correct usage, and much online language is too ephemeral and referential to warrant inclusion. Nonetheless, documenting contemporary slang remains valuable for future historians to understand digital culture.
