Over the last few years, I’ve spent way too much time scrolling through TikTok and Twitter — and I’ve started to realize something uncomfortable: I’m not a 20-year-old junior marketer anymore… I’m unc.
I was constantly falling behind on language. Every new slang word felt like a puzzle, and having to Google or dig through Urban Dictionary every time drove me mad.
That’s how GENGENGEN was born — a light, simple translator between generations.
If you’re a parent, feed Hemingway into the app, translate it into Gen A, read it to your kid — and watch them melt into the floor cringing.
Oh, and if you are that boomer, you can finally learn what “cringe” even means. There’s a big “Explain” button too — and it does exactly what it says.

I'm curious, how do you handle new slang that pops up super fast?

@rajpurohit_vijesh I already face this problem. But thinking of something like separate database where I will put supernew words. It looks like manual job, but maybe I can somehow do it as a marketing collab with specific tiktokers that make this type of content. You know, this talking heads who only explain fresh new words for a mass public
