I got a paragraph on how age is a key determinant of language,
but I believe for it too be A+ it really lacks examples.

Can anyone suggest ANY (Good or Bad, doesn't matter) examples
of how language use is affected by age.

Kind regards,

taboos and social acceptance leaning more towards the younger generation. can also talk about netspeak
on the other hand use of slangs and colloquialisms - the differences between young and old
use of idioms in the older generation

don't know anything else.
