Introduction: Indian English is a vibrant and dynamic
entity, shaped by the country's diverse cultural, social, and technological
landscape. This paper explores the emerging trends and newly coined words in
Indian English, highlighting the language's adaptability and creativity.
In an age of digital
hyper-connectivity, language is evolving at an unprecedented pace. This
linguistic evolution is especially observable in the ways younger generations
adapt and manipulate English in various socio-cultural contexts. In India, New
Generation G—loosely defined as the demographic cohort born from the mid-1990s
onwards and marked by their digital fluency—demonstrates a unique linguistic
behavior. The members of this generation are not only consumers of global
English but also active producers of new linguistic forms.
