Linguistically not exactly timeless (re: "awkward; no, i'm awkward" and "that happened" along with other minor phrases that obviously became part of our modern phrase inventory within the last two years)[/QUOTE]But this is true of any work of art, and sometimes it works. See: Shakespeare.

Basically, this:
[QUOTE="CuccoLady, post: 1473170, member: 30977"]^ Anna's vocabulary ((and more or less her entire demeanor)) felt a lot to me like the creators trying to be ~*hip and with it*~ tbh, probably part of the reason I kind of felt more embarrassed by her than connected to her as a character[/QUOTE]
However, to the writers' credit, I saw a lot of myself in her character. And yeah, Bolt, sometimes it does work...though many Shakespearian terms were actually coined by Shakespeare so they weren't in use by, well, any demographic as opposed to phrases I mentioned previously that were in Frozen that were already in use, but by one demographic (teens/young adults).
idk. I feel like that's something I wouldn't have noticed and/or cringed at if I hadn't studied lingustics haha
