Kindness has been chosen as Children’s Word of the Year for 2024 after a survey of thousands of young people.<\/p>\n

Oxford University Press (OUP) said “artificial intelligence” and “conflict” were also among the most common suggestions.<\/p>\n

It follows 2023’s winning phrase “climate change”, and “Queen”, which was the winner in 2022 following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. <\/p>\n

More than 3,000 children aged six to14 were asked for their suggestions, with the top three then put to vote by a further 2,000 children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Andrea Quincey, a director at OUP, said the choice was “encouraging” and reflected children’s increasing awareness of mental health. <\/p>\n

She sad: “We know from previous years that young people are very conscious of the big issues that can divide us as a society and attuned to the important role which language can play in bringing people together.<\/p>\n

“It tells us that empathy and tolerance and the language we use matter, and that kindness is not only a solution to so many problems but is something everyone and anyone can do to make a difference.”<\/p>\n

“Slay”, “sigma” and “skibidi” were chosen as the top three slang words, which OUP said demonstrated the role of social media in influencing children’s vocabulary.<\/p>\n

“Slay” as a slang term means to greatly impress or amuse, and “sigma” means popular or successful. <\/p>\n

Ms Quincey said the choice of these two words also reflected children’s positivity in wanting to celebrate their friends. <\/p>\n

She added that in the final vote kindness had been chosen by 61% of children while a quarter chose “artificial intelligence”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
