Word origin

The word 'teenaged' derives from the word 'teen', which is a shorthand term for a person aged 13 to 19 years old. The 'teen' suffix itself originates from the numbers thirteen to nineteen, which all contain the suffix '-teen'. The concept of 'teenagers' as a distinct social group emerged in the early 20th century, particularly during the post-World War II era in the United States, where marketing and cultural trends began to recognize young people as a separate demographic with unique characteristics and interests. The increased economic prosperity of the 1950s allowed for greater spending power among this age group and led to the rise of youth culture. Over time, the term 'teenaged' has been widely adopted to describe the experiences and challenges faced by individuals in this developmental stage.
