Word origin
The word 'teenage' originated in the early 20th century as a combination of 'teen' (referring to the numbers 13-19) and 'age'. It first appeared in written form in the 1920s as a way to describe the stage of life between childhood and adulthood. The concept of the teenage years as a distinct phase of life gained popularity in the mid-20th century, with the rise of youth culture and the recognition of teenagers as a unique demographic group with specific needs and characteristics.
