editIt seems that while this article and the German-wiki article for this subject address the German slang concept Jugendsprache, the other language wiki articles that this is linked to instead discuss general youth-slang in their own language (with the possible exception of the Alemannisch one), or in languages in general. I'm not really sure if there's anything to be done about this, but it's a somewhat odd inconsistency. signed, Rosguill talk 00:32, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

editHey! I'd like to improve this article. Can you please tell me what's wrong with tone, spelling and grammar? --JuviK27 (talk) 10:15, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
- There's a few different minor issues. The use of transitions at the beginning of sections is largely unnecessary, there's a few examples of awkward grammar and incorrect phrase order, such as
Ethnic elements from teenagers with a migration background (eg. Balkan-slang, Turkish-German) have emerged over the last years
, and there's some words which appear to me to be false cognates or incorrectly conjugated forms of words (for example, how "stylistics" is used to refer to stylistically exaggerated language, as opposed to the field of stylistics). signed, Rosguill talk 18:14, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
