What a strange new world

 A coworker remarked to me over chat “I just had a 6 year old say to me, ‘can you put the link in the chat box?'” and then later “Then he told me, ‘I’m going to send my username in a private chat.'” It got me thinking, in this strange world of digital online learning, we are changing our conversational language dramatically. I find myself saying new and weird things in my online lectures/classes all the time. What are some weird things that you say now and how have your children/students been coping with online learning?
