What language did people from the 1960s speak?

People in the 1960s spoke English, just like we do today. However, the slang, idioms, and cultural references used in the 1960s were different from what we use today.

Here are some examples of how language differed in the 1960s:

* Slang: "Groovy," "Far out," "Peace out," "Right on," "Cool cat"

* Idioms: "Get with it," "Hang loose," "Make a scene," "Catch some rays," "Dig it"

* Cultural references: "The Beatles," "The Monkees," "The Civil Rights Movement," "The Vietnam War," "The Space Race"

While the actual language was English, the 1960s had its own distinct vocabulary and cultural context that set it apart from other time periods.
