Slang SurveyWhat new bit of language are you hearing at the moment? We want to hear words and phrases, with definitions and where it's being used. We're interested in marketing speak, stuff from kids in playgrounds etc.

Another......just remembered one which I coined, and my daughter started using at school and it caught on!
We used to play 'Mastermind' that game with the coloured pegs. Whenever I thought that I had cracked the code, I'd say to her "Knock it down! (pronounced Daahn)" referring to the little plastic shield covering up the pegs. We started using this whenever we'd done something good, like getting an answer right on University Challange say.
