The amazing linguistic flexibility of 'vibe'

Mel Magazine: Bro, do you even vibe? (published 2019)

This article discusses the rise in popularity among teenagers of variations on the lexeme 'vibe', including:

• 'vibing' (slang, verb)

• 'pass the vibe check' (slang, idiom, collocation, metaphor)

• 'that's a vibe' (slang, noun, idiom, metaphor)

While the popularity of variations on 'vibe' seems to have lasted into 2021, it will be interesting to see whether these expressions, like most teenage slang, ultimately fade away once they are discovered by adults.
