1. Eternal God
YYDS should be the hottest word in 202 1. Its original meaning is "eternal god", which comes from the mouth of LOL anchor of League of Legends. At that time, when "Mountain Mud Ruo" explained the match between RNG and CG in the live broadcast, it inadvertently praised "Jian Zihao, the eternal god", which made these four words quickly spread throughout the LOL circle. At the Tokyo Olympic Games in July last year, Yang Qian and Yang Haoran formed the "Yang Yang Group", which made YYDS successfully break the circle and become the first buzzword of the year.
2. Internal volume/volume
The word "involution" originated from the academic field, and now it is more used to describe some irrational internal competition. For example, due to limited resources, many participants have to make more efforts to compete for limited resources. A typical example is that a cold drink shop used to sell its own drinks easily, but suddenly one day, many cold drink shops of the same type appeared on the street.
In order to survive in the fierce competition, merchants are forced to extend their business hours, lower their selling prices, give small gifts and develop new products, which is the best interpretation of involution.
lie?on?one's?back
The word "lying flat" originally corresponds to "involution", that is, some people will choose to work harder when they are under pressure, while others don't want to live so tired and give up competition to choose Buddha's work and life. It can be seen here that the initial "lying flat" is actually a little bit self-destructive.
Nowadays, "lying flat" is more used to describe young people outside the traditional mainstream channels such as going to work, working overtime, promotion and salary increase, but it actually reflects a different attitude towards life and work.
4. Juejuezi
The word "Juejuezi" originated from diva, a village in Baidu Post Bar, which was intended to satirize a netizen who used the identity of a bar owner to cheat in European and American music circles. But now "Juejuezi" is more of a kind of refueling and praise, which generally means too wonderful and great.
Of course, it is precisely because of the profoundness of Chinese that "Juezi" has two completely different meanings: praise and disparagement in different contexts. As for the specific meaning, you have to ask yourself to understand.
5. upland rice man
"Dry rice man" is probably the most vivid word. Originally, this word means "eat" in Sichuan and Chongqing dialect, but because of the heroic painting style of Liangshan heroes in film and television works, it is often described as a young man who worked hard in 1996.
Nowadays, the words "rice man" are far from the original meaning of eating, but more of a taste of hard work and positive progress. So it's like "Come on, dry rice man!" This usage is increasing gradually.
