    I can’t be bothered to look up the correct word, what is it?

      Don’t ask me, my English is abysmal.

      Worsening, decline?

      Maybe there isn’t a single word.

        It seems superfluous to complain about a word’s use when you don’t have a better alternative. Language is ever growing and evolving, especially slang. A English speaking time traveler would not be able to communicate very well with English speakers from 500 years ago. Let people have their things.
