catchphrase
Other forms: catchphrases
A catchphrase is a memorable term or expression made popular through repeated use. These iconic phrases often spring from movies, TV shows, and other media.
Catchphrases are like verbal stickers that pop up in shows, books, or social media and quickly catch on among friends. These phrases are short, snappy, and often funny, making them easy to remember and repeat. For instance, think of a character always saying, "Oops-a-daisy!" whenever they drop something. Soon, everyone's saying it! Catchphrases help bring stories to life, making characters and their adventures more memorable for everyone.
