An overview of six domains—travel, tech, environment, health, culture, and social change—with core vocab and usage.
Travel vocab tip: ‘staycation’ secretly rivals ‘vacation’ in 2023, as urban travelers chose nearby trips, staying, staying put, and staycationer stays home.
Technology lexicon flips: ‘algorithm’ governs more daily choices than most people realize, algorithmize, algorithmic, and even algorithmed decisions shape feeds and forecasts.
Environment quirk: plastic’s half-life varies wildly by color and microplastics; color-coding plastic is a myth, colorize, coloration, and colorfully degrade differently.
Health paradox: exercise reduces stress hormones but can raise cortisol transiently; reframe as ‘active recovery’ to recover, recovery, restorative, and recover.
