    Don’t ask me, my English is abysmal.

    Worsening, decline?

    Maybe there isn’t a single word.

      It seems superfluous to complain about a word’s use when you don’t have a better alternative. Language is ever growing and evolving, especially slang. An English speaking time traveler would not be able to communicate very well with English speakers from 500 years ago. Let people have their things.
