Relatable

1. I dont believe the word "relatable" has sparked any new meaning, but instead it has been categorized in a different context. When people use the word relatable they usually mean that their past experiences can somewhat correlate with what they are reading or watching. Back then relatable was just a term for saying the story could be told or it could be connected to some other thing. Now it is used to directly connect meaning to something in your own life. In conclusion, no I dont believe the word relatable has become problematic. In fact it has been more commonly used than ever and now most of society tries to mimic that euphoria, or that strong dramatic feeling of being able to connect with someone, or something directly through past personal experience.
