For those who are confused by jargon like “hot girl summer” and “low key,” this is the perfect assist.
A new study suggests that many older people don’t understand Gen Z slang.

Meanwhile, the Echo Spot has been revamped with a colorful display that focuses on its basic function as a trusty alarm clock.
The new product will be available for a limited time on Prime Day this week.
Users can choose from a variety of custom designed clock faces to match the style of their room.
This is the second version of the Echo Spot.
Amazon has done away with the circular screen on the front and replaced half of it with a directional speaker.
Designed for use on a nightstand, Amazon claims the gradually illuminating display makes it easy to set and view alarms, and lets you see the time, weather, and song title at a glance.

Despite being a basic function, alarms are one of Alexa’s most popular features, used tens of millions of times every day.
There are four alarm sounds available: Aurora, Daybreak, Endeavor, and Flutter.
If you want to get a little more sleep, you can tap your Echo Spot to snooze the alarm.
There are six display color themes available – orange, violet, magenta, lime, teal, and blue – and you can mix and match the colors to suit different clock faces.
