Why Do Buzzwords Go Out of Style So Quickly?
liú nà刘娜hé和jùn xī俊熙liáo聊:liú xíng yǔ流行语chuán bō传播kuài快,yě也huì会hěn kuài很快bèi被yòng nì用腻、bèi被xīn新gěng梗tì dài替代。

Liu Na and Junxi discuss how buzzwords spread quickly, but also quickly become overused and get replaced by new memes.

刘娜
jùn xī俊熙,nǐ你yǒu méi yǒu有没有fā xiàn发现?yǒu xiē有些wǎng luò网络liú xíng yǔ流行语huǒ火jǐ gè yuè几个月jiù就méi没rén人yòng用le了。

Junxi, have you noticed? Some internet buzzwords are popular for a few months and then no one uses them anymore.

俊熙
yǒu有!gǎn jué感觉tā men它们yǒu有“bǎo zhì qī保质期”,guò qī过期jiù就yǒu diǎn有点gān gà尴尬。

Yes! It feels like they have a 'shelf life.' Once they expire, using them feels a bit awkward.

刘娜
wèi shén me为什么huì会zhè yàng这样ne呢?

Why does that happen?

俊熙
chuán bō传播tài太kuài快le了,dà jiā大家yī wō fēng一窝蜂gēn zhe跟着yòng用,hěn kuài很快jiù就yòng用nì腻le了。

They spread too fast. Everyone jumps on the trend, and people get tired of them quickly.

刘娜
duì对,ér qiě而且xīn新gěng梗yì zhí一直chū lái出来,jiù旧de的jiù就bèi被tì huàn替换le了。

Right, and new memes keep appearing, so the old ones get replaced.

俊熙
hái yǒu还有,cí词bèi被guǎng gào广告hé和yíng xiāo营销yòng用tài duō太多,yě也huì会biàn dé变得méi yì si没意思。

Also, when words are used too much in ads and marketing, they become boring.

刘娜
nà那nǐ你zuò做bó zhǔ博主,huì会zěn me怎么yòng用liú xíng yǔ流行语cái才zì rán自然?

As a blogger, how do you use buzzwords naturally?

俊熙
wǒ我huì会shǎo少yòng用yì diǎn一点,fàng放zài在zuì最hé shì合适de的dì fāng地方,bú yào不要měi jù每句huà话dōu都yòng用。

I use them sparingly and put them where they fit best, instead of using them in every sentence.

刘娜
shuō说de得hǎo好。yǔ yán语言xiàng像cháo shuǐ潮水,lái来de得kuài快,yě也tuì退de得kuài快。

Well said. Language is like the tide: it comes quickly and goes quickly too.

俊熙
nà那wǒ我zǒng jié总结yī xià一下:gěng梗zài再huǒ火yě也bié别yìng硬cèng蹭,yòng用de得gāng gāng hǎo刚刚好cái才gāo jí高级!

Then let me sum it up: no matter how popular a meme is, don't force it. Using it just right is what makes it classy!
