The 1960s was such a transition from established-traditional lifestyles to a more carefree-anything goes attitude. You surely have relatives who lived during that decade and remember it well.
As with every decade there are certain words and phrases one can associate with the era. The words can come from events happening, music styles, cultural attitudes, clothing styles, political events, movies / television, etc.
One from television many may recall was ‘sock-it to me’ from the show Laugh-in. Now a days, it would be rare for someone to use that phrase.
Many of the slang words of the 1960s were used by the teenagers.
