I'm old enough to have noticed that a huge amount of language has changed in American English in the Westcoast at least. It's pretty remarkable even myself and other middle aged people I know have changed their word use and slang.
It has changed a lot! But I'm bound and determined to keep "hella" alive, even if no one understands what I'm saying.
I noticed rad has made a resurgence in the past decade or so
'cause it's a tubular word, doy. (and for a brief moment, I was a kid in the '80s again)
I think we used gnarly a lot back then too
It later made its way to the ski/snowboard communities, and I wouldn't be surprised if it came back, i.e., "Shreddin' the gnar."
