Why Are Kids Now Suddenly Saying 'City Boy'?

We’ve recently explained the meanings behind choppelganger and lowkenuinely – some newer words entering teen vocabulary.

“City boy, city boy” is the call of Gen Alpha currently, with TikTok creator and teacher Philip Lindsay noting kids in his class have been saying it for a few weeks now.

“It’s a meme from an old video clip that they’re just repeating,” explained the teacher, who is based in the US.
